Abstract
This paper describes videoSpace, a software toolkit designed to facilitate the integration of image streams into existing or new documents and applications to support new forms of human-computer interaction and collaborative activities. In this perspective, videoSpace is not focused on performance or reliability issues, but rather on the ability to support rapid prototyping and incremental development of video applications. The toolkit is described in extensive details, by showing the architecture and functionalities of its class library and basic tools. Several projects developed with videoSpace are also presented, illustrating its potential and the new uses of video it will allow in the future.
