Lyrebird - Hack the hacker (and take a picture)

The idea for Lyrebird came from observing that sometimes when someone forgets lock their workstation, someone else might mess with their computer. Since I wanted to learn more on how to program a webcam and take pictures - I figured why not create a little tool that takes a screenshot and uses the webcam to take pictures of anyone that interacts with the computer while I’m gone. The way this work is simple, start Lyrebird. It will take a screenshot of the current desktop and then enter its observation mode.
