Scaling and Importing Image from digital camera... ?

For part of a senior design project, we need to mount a digital camera above a billiard table, take a picture with the remote control, and somehow get that picture into a GUI from java. Any ideas on how to communicate with the digital camera and import the image?

If you use a webcam you can leverage the vfw (video for windows) input using Java Media Framework. Then you can grab a still and process it as described elsewhere in this forum.Plug the camera in and see if the JMF detects it using JMF registry.regards
