UVC PTZ Camera MCP
An MCP server that allows agents to control USB UVC pan/tilt/zoom cameras. It supports aiming, sweeping, zooming, and capturing images, with verification via image comparison. Features include tracking subjects using OpenCV face detection, planning multi-step shots, and recording views, all operating locally without cloud dependencies or vendor SDKs.
