MJPG-streamer
MJPG-streamer takes images from an input plugin and streams them to several output plugins. It is the successor of the UVC-streamer, so it supports Linux-UVC V4L2 compatible webcams as input plugins. The most popular output plugin is the HTTP daemon. It serves the JPEG input as an MJPEG stream or simple snapshots to a HTTP client like Firefox, VideoLanClient (VLC), or TCPMP. By using the camozola Java applet, browsers like Opera and Internet Explorer can also view the stream.
