Hey,

I am a grad student working on some image processing applications using logitech quickcam orbit Af. I am using Ubuntu 10.04.

Is there any commandline tools I can use to set the pan and tilt automatically by writing a script? (tried uvcdynctrl and setpwc unsuccessfully)

I am able to use guvcview's graphical interface to pan tilt. But opening the gui everytime to change the settings doesn't suit my application. Furthermore, guvcview only lets me set relative values for pan and tilt.

I would like to set an absolute value.

Kindly help me in this regard.

If any part of my question needs clarification, don't hesitate to reply so.
