This Chipin is to raise funds to buy a HD webcam for live streams of events from !space. I found out live streams are a great way to communicate what we do to potential member. The problem is that when "someone" brings his webcam along it takes too long to setup everything. a permanent solution would be good for !space.
The Logitech runs well under Ubuntu

Also there is documentation about the hardware if anyone want to write their own application for the cam.

The rest of the money, if achieved, will be used for USB cable extensions, wallmounts and whatever else is needed to get a good picture for live streams. We will also get a high quality microphone donated soon so the livestreams should be rocking.
