I have a ML application and I need to access the PC’s webcam. I have seen posts saying that it can be done with javascript or the file uploader but I can not see any examples of how that can be done. Does anybody have an example of how to read the webcam into a anvil image? Thanks, Louis

You can use the Javascript bridge to set the id of your Anvil canvas element, and then your Javascript can get that component by id. You would not then have a separate HTML canvas element. Something like: node = js.get_dom_node(self.canvas_1) node.id = "canvas_1"
