I want to be able to use a webcam in Scratch to lets say, you move your body left or right and a character onscreen moves in the same direction.
So like:
-------------------------CAMERA----------------------------------------
-------------------------///||\\\-----------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------person moves right ->>>>>>>>>>>>>>
In game
little guy (0.0) moves right ->>>>>
Does anyone know what I could use for that and how I could use something like that? I know there is a light sensor option but that is used with a breadboard or something like that. Is it possible just to plug in a camera and use it for video capture and have it look for a certain object or movement? Or will I have to go elsewhere?

hint-after you finish using blocks, like this:
[blocks]<move( )steps>
make sure to use "/blocks" in brackets or else your text goes like this[/blocks]
and sadly, no, i don't think there's a way to do that. scratch is just a simple, educational program. maybe you can try something that integrates webcams. i wonder if arduino has it... maybe flash.
