Open Source BSD Digital Camera Software

gPhoto is a program and library framework that lets users download pictures from their digital cameras. The libgphoto2 library gives you access to hundreds of models of digital cameras on several platforms. GIT repo and Issue tracker lives at https://github.com/gphoto/ these days.

FastPhotoTagger tries to be the fastest way to set the metadata in your photos. Add, change, delete, and search the metadata fields of your choice. FastPhotoTagger excels when you have lots of files and lots of metadata. With FastPhotoTagger, you can - Set multiple images to have the same tags - Set individual images to have unique tags - Display all the metadata in an image - Compare and edit all the metadata in several images - Work with your favorite metadata fields: EXIF, XMP, IPTC, etc. - Define hierarchical keywords - View images and slideshows that display tags as captions - Create and search a metadata database FastPhotoTagger has versions for PC and Android. FastPhotoTagger uses ExifTool to read & write metadata, HyperSQL to manage its database, dcraw to display DNG & RAW, and ImageMagick to display TIFF. WEBP, & HEIC.

[Important] The project moved to GitHub. Please use the following GitHub project page from now on: https://github.com/twain/twain-samples Use the TWAIN 2 sample data source and application, to test your TWAIN project, or as templates to incorporate TWAIN into your graphic applications or Scanner drivers. The samples are released as open source software and uses a Modified BSD licenses.

[Important] The project moved to GitHub. Please use the following GitHub project page from now on: https://github.com/twain/twain-dsm The home of the TWAIN Data Source Manager (DSM). The DSM manages the interactions between TWAIN applications and TWAIN Data Sources for the acquisition of images from scanners and cameras. This DSM is open source software and uses LGPL licenses.

Automatically geocode pictures from your camera and a GPS track log. Following Google code closure the only official webpage is (doc, support, code) : https://github.com/notfrancois/GPicSync

Linux printing, scanning, and photo-card access on most HP multi-function peripherals.

libiptcdata is a standalone C-library for reading and writing the International Press Telecommunications Council (IPTC) metadata contained in various data files such as images.

A new version of the popular raw digital images manipulator ufraw. Forks from the version 0.23 of ufraw (that's why the first nufraw version is the 0.24). Nufraw offers the same features (gimp plugin, batch, ecc) and the same quality of ufraw in a brand new improved user interface.

Library communicating with PTP enabled devices (digital photo cameras and so on).

NOTE: We are moving this project to GitHub! Digital photographs are not ideal. Of course, the better is your camera, the better the results will be, but in any case if you look carefully at shots taken even by the most expensive cameras equipped with the most expensive lenses you will see various artifacts. It is very hard to make ideal cameras, because there are a lot of factors that affect the final image quality, and at some point camera and lens designers have to trade one factor for another to achieve the optimal image quality, within the given design restrictions and budget. But we all want ideal shots, don't we? :) So that's what's lensfun is all about - rectifying the defects introduced by your photographic equipment.

YASW (Yet Another Scan Wizard) is an application used to correct images taken with a camera. It can be used to post process the scanning of a book (see http://http://www.diybookscanner.org/ ) or to correct an individual image taken with our camera (A poster in the street). You can see YASW (0.5) in action in Youtube http://youtu.be/__a9urAtQD4 thanks to David Landin. He also wrote an illustrated manual for YASW 0.5: http://sourceforge.net/projects/yascanw/files/YASW%200.5/How%20to%20use%20YASW%200.5.pdf/download

DNG camera profile (DCP) to ICC camera profile converter.

A command-line tool to download picturs and control still digital cameras based on Sierra Imaging chipset and compatibles (Olympus, Nikon, Epson, Agfa and some others).

Superseded by the GSPCA driver in the mainline kernel. Development now at http://linuxtv.org/ [Formerly: Linux device driver for SPCA50X based USB cameras (Intel PC Camera Pro)]

Python application to scan DataMatrix barcodes using webcam. Uses libdmtx as backend decoder and pyGTK for display. Intended as a conference badge scanning application, but flexible enough to allow other applications.

Camscope is a multi-threaded program for acquiring and quantitatively analyzing images from an IIDC-compliant FireWire camera. It provides an integrated environment for performing quantitative video microscopy for teaching laboratories.

Exifrename is a graphical (Qt) renaming tool, that renames JPEG-Files from digital cameras containing EXIF Metadata, according to the EXIF Date/Time Information.

QuickCam VC device driver for linux based on V4L V4L2 specifications.

This software is made available to owners of Kodak's DC120 digital camera who would like to convert the .kdc files produced by the camera to .tiff or .jpeg files using Linux or other UNIX machines.

Krokus is an application written in C++ and wxWidgets, which helps you to print photos like with many printing software available on windows. It has advanced features like: color management,softproofing, cropping, easy layout control and much more...

A simple commandline tool for downloading pictures, sound and movies from the Creative PC-CAM.

Java access to USB, currently using kernel 2.4 Linux-USB support. There is a "core" API for accessing USB devices, and simple tools including a USB viewer in Swing. Applications are being developed separately, including digital camera support.

This project builds on the jUSB APIs, initially supporting the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) over USB on Linux. The software is GPL'd, and includes an extensible core library (for developers), commandline support, and user tools.
