Just messing around with the camera and dot matrix displays in Python.
Camera program that uses the webcam to create a retro camera effect. The program uses Pygame and OpenCV to capture the webcam feed and render it as a dot matrix display. The user can adjust the dot size, spacing, color, frame rate, and visual effect using keyboard controls. The program also includes a control panel with instructions and a stats panel to display the current settings. The user can take screenshots of the display by pressing the 'S' key.
