## How it works

When you click "Start Camera Test," the tool requests access to your camera through your browser's standard permission dialog. Once granted, it displays the live video feed and reads the camera's track settings to report the actual output resolution. Frame rate is measured continuously using the browser's requestAnimationFrame API, giving you an accurate count of how many frames are being rendered each second.

**Key measurements:**
- **Resolution** -- The width and height of the video feed in pixels
- **Frame Rate** -- Actual frames per second being rendered
- **Megapixels** -- Total pixel count of each frame
- **Aspect Ratio** -- The proportional relationship between width and height

## Who should use this

- **Remote workers** preparing for video meetings on Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet
- **Content creators** verifying webcam quality before recording
- **IT support** troubleshooting camera issues on workstations
- **Online teachers** checking their setup before a live class
- **Anyone** who just bought a new webcam and wants to confirm it works

## How to use

1. Click "Start Camera Test" and allow camera access when prompted
2. Review your live video feed and the resolution, FPS, and device information
3. If you have multiple cameras, use the dropdown to switch between them
4. Click "Take Snapshot" to capture a still frame
5. Download the snapshot using the "Download Snapshot" button
6. Click "Stop Camera" when you are finished

## Privacy and security

Your camera feed is processed entirely within your browser. No video data is uploaded, stored, or transmitted to any server. The camera stream is released as soon as you stop the test or leave the page.

## Troubleshooting tips

- **Camera access denied:** Check your browser's site permissions and ensure camera access is set to "Allow."
- **Camera in use:** Close other applications that may be using the camera (Zoom, Teams, FaceTime, etc.).
- **No camera found:** Verify that your webcam is properly connected and recognized by your operating system.
- **Low frame rate:** Close resource-heavy browser tabs or applications. Poor lighting can also cause some cameras to reduce frame rate.
- **Wrong camera selected:** Use the camera dropdown to switch to the correct device.
