CyberLink YouCam 2

CyberLink YouCam 2 is a powerful and professional program that makes it even more fun to have online video chats or to record videos with live effects. Based on 3D technology and facial tracking, 12 new avatars give you the opportunity to pass for a historical character or your favorite pet. The illusion is truly amazing.

Avatars will mimic mouth, eye, and head movements. And now YouCam also provides new ways to share files online like PowerPoint presentations and images. It is a great solution for users with built-in or USB webcams, as the massive, new breed of videos uploaded onto YouTube using YouCam already attests to.
