## Software Requirements

| Property              | Value                              |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| **External Software** | None Required (Plug-and-Play)      |
| **Protocol**          | UVC (USB Video Class) Compliant    |
| **Windows Support**   | Native Support - No drivers needed |
| **macOS Support**     | Native Support - No drivers needed |
| **Linux Support**     | Native Support - V4L2 compatible   |

<Note>
  **Zero Software Required**
  Because it is fully UVC compliant, it requires absolutely **no proprietary drivers, external software, or libraries** for retrieving images.

  While we provide helpful optional utilities like our Camera Tester and dweOS, **these are strictly optional**. You can plug the camera into your system and immediately view the feed using standard built-in camera applications (like Windows Camera, OBS, etc).
