Ajax webcam?

Hello,

I am looking to created a login system where a user will take his/her photo via webcam in browser and that picture taken should be related to that user; under a specific timestamp,

for example, if my user name is username and I logged In, the system will note my time and by taking a photo (either auto or by clicking a button in browser) and will store that picture in a folder under a unique name related to that customer and the time he logged in,

I am stuck how to connect web cam to browser (desirable ajax etc not flash) and then photo taken and stored in a folder with unique name etc

anybody did something like this before? help appreciated.

You can only do this through flash at the moment. HTML5 is suppose to support native webcam but that won’t be for another few years.
