Camera Control for Linux in System Tray (Notification Area)

  • A small utility to switch your webcam on/off, microphone mute/unmute for Linux Desktops (Qt5, Gtk3 maybe in the future)

  • This project replaces the camera monitor, for having the full webcam status on tray and provides for both camera and microphone switch functions aditionally.

  • In addition, it provides Security Control, by Logs, Popup notifiers and Shield Icon on tray for Malware or Intrusion Detection.

  • Polkit integration prevents leakage of sensitive data, as from 2.2.0 release and on

    Screenshot

  • so the CameraControl.sh, has been modified accordingly

  • RPM is not valid yet. I do not have any feedback and testing from such distributions.

  • After editing, you may set it to autostart with your favourite Desktop, from your Home folder.
