WebcamGPT-Vision offers a lightweight web application for processing live webcam feeds using OpenAI's GPT-4 Vision API. It targets users who want to leverage advanced image understanding capabilities directly from their browser, providing AI-generated descriptions of captured snapshots.

How It Works

The application captures images from the user's webcam via browser APIs. These images are then sent to the GPT-4 Vision API for analysis. The API's descriptive output is returned and displayed to the user within the web interface, enabling real-time visual understanding.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Installation: Clone the repository, navigate to the desired version (PHP, Node.js, or Python/Flask), and follow version-specific setup instructions.
• Prerequisites: Modern web browser, OpenAI API key, and version-specific server/runtime environments (PHP with cURL, Node.js/npm, or Python/Flask).
• Setup: Requires configuring API keys and installing dependencies.
• Links: GitHub Repository

Highlighted Details

• Supports three distinct implementations: PHP, Node.js, and Python/Flask.
• Integrates directly with OpenAI's GPT-4 Vision API for image analysis.
• Provides a simple UI for capturing images and viewing AI-generated descriptions.

Maintenance & Community
