YouCam 4 is all the fun you wanted and it is provided by your camera with the help of this software created by CuberLink. You can find it at the next link: http://www.cyberlink.com/products/youcam/overview_en_US.html. Your webcam can record fast videos and then share them with your friends. You can enhance those recordings and also your chat with the features coming from the TrueTheater technology, which is used on almost every product coming from CyberLink, which has a connection to the video editing and video software.
The webcam will benefit of some effects, because this is the thing that will make it funnier. You can download these effects for no cost at all from DirectorZone. There you have avatars, augmented reality effects and particule effects to enhance your video conversations. I don’t know exactly if the person to whom you talk to is going to see them, if he or she does not use this software. I know that a long time ago, I upgraded my chat with some capabilities and my friends were not able to see them. Instead of a picture which was animated and which was supposed to make them laugh, they received a link, which most likely annoyed them, especially when I inserted that emoticon among the words of a phrase.
Speaking of price, the Deluxe variant of the software is only $44.95 and the Standard version is $34.95. If you want to make your kid happy, you can buy a software like this. Just make sure the kid won’t spend too much time in front of the computer, because there are also other things which worth to be made, and they do not have a connection with a computer.
The users can interact with augmented reality features even though their computers do not use certain capabilities that could make the computer deliver this effect any other time than when not using the webcam. This is an effect speciffic for the webcam and no matter how hard you could try to use the effect in other conversations, you will not be able to do this. Maybe you can speak with the manufacturer that creates those avatars and see what is the possibility for you of using such effects in other digital environments, not only in the chat room.
DirectX 9 is a program which has to be installed on the computer before you install this software, because it allows the players to watch the effects better. In fact, it lets them to see the effects, because otherwise, they will not be able of seeing them and the whole program is in vain. Only the latest Windows operating systems are supported. When you will speak with your friends via chat, obviously you will need an Internet connection. The language support is the same like the product I presented earlier, which is Media Show 5. You can read more about it in here.
Overall, I can say that the product is a must have for the young generation. It does not cost too much and it is a good investment. The chat is not like it used to be. And if there are programs which can enhance the functionality of an old program (chatting), you have to take advantages out of them. So, don’t let the benefits of such program to go near you.
