There's an XCMD for the QuickCam in the HyperCard Pantechnicon at
<http://ufp.uqam.ca/Pantechnicon/Externals/Umich/sequencer.html>. (I'm not
sure whether this will work with Revolution, though - I haven't tested it
and it looks like it might use the HyperCard 2.0 windoid extensions, which
Revolution doesn't support.)
Also, the QuickPict application that comes with the QuickCam has an
AppleScript dictionary, so it looks like you can tell it to save captures
in a file, then import them into Revolution for modification and display.
You could always write an external of your own, but these seem like the
quick ways to get started.
