 A program that takes a video from your webcam, puts it through a random function, then shows the resulting video.
 
 This program is like [AutoArt](http://github.com/pommicket/AutoArt), but it takes a video from your webcam and turns it into AutoArt.
+
+AutoCam requires:
+ - Python
+ - OpenCV
+ - Numpy
+
+On Ubuntu/Debian, these can be installed using:
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install python python-opencv python-numpy
+```
+
+On other platforms, you can use pip to install the dependencies.
+
+To run AutoCam:
+```bash
+cd the/directory/where/AutoCam/is
+python rgbautocam.py
+```
+
+You can replace rgbautocam with autocam if you want the R, G, and B functions to be the same.
