No, we don't :-) I didn't even know myself we could do
this until Sebastian tried. He has a webcam with a TWAIN
interface (under Windows). As long as a camera or webcam can
be accessed by SANE we can do this under UNIX, too. Or else
we can just snap the picture into a file and import that. If
the snapshot has the right document type it can then be used
as the patient picture more or less automatically. The
picture will then be displayed in the upper left corner of
the user interface.
