AsciCam is a program that converts your camera input into ascii while the pogram is open.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Now that's it! You should be able to run the code.
(Shot via program with Logitech C525)
Also, you can have fun with this program as using it as your webcam output via OBS. (You can lower the "vertical" variable to increase FPS.)
There are configuration variables that you can change between 129. and 135. lines.
camera: Which camera to use? (As a number)
mirrored: Mirror the camera. (1 or 0)
vertical: Character number in a row.
fontsize: Fontsize of the terminal for smooth views. (Doesn't work in linux, don't use "3" because it's buggy right now.)
set_screen: Fitting the terminal into ascii characters. (0 is for true and 1 is for false.)
char_list: Characters listed by their brightness.
