Camera Capture (std.camera)

Discover connected camera imaging hardware and capture high-resolution snapshots directly to disk:

---

import std.camera

// List all connected video capture devices
let cameras = camera.devices()
println($"Detected {cameras.len()} camera device(s)")

for cam in cameras {
    println($"[{cam.index}] {cam.name}: {cam.description}")
}

// Capture an image frame from device index 0 and save directly to disk
if cameras.len() > 0 {
    let success = camera.capture(0, "snapshot.png")
    if success {
        println("Snapshot successfully captured and saved to snapshot.png")
    }
}
