OwnYourCam

OwnYourCam is a crossplatform, open source tool for you to protect your privacy against the growing landscape of video conferencing tools, triggered by the consequences of Covid-19 regarding school and work life.

It can also be used to preserve your companies identity in video conferences with the so called "CI feature"

OwnYourCam serves as a virtual filter between your camera and the video conferencing software, to remove the control from the video conferencing software over your webcam. This opens up opportunities for a lot of features:

Works with every video conferencing platform, since you control your webcam video before the video arrives at any conferencing tool
Simple and ergonomic user interface
Digital controller to be the boss of your camera.
Background recognition, which enables you to switch out your background in order to:
- Protect your privacy (school uniform effect)
- Enforce your corporate identity in video conferences with built in customizable corporate backgrounds
