How to Use an Xbox Vision Camera on a Computer

With the camera's release came a slew of new Xbox LIVE features, such as the ability to video chat, send pictures and even broadcast your image during a game, such as in "Uno" or "Texas Hold 'Em." Like other Xbox 360 accessories before it, the Vision Camera is also backward compatible with Windows-based PCs such as Windows XP.
