I'm confused. It doesn't seem there's a way to read the webcam from HTML5, right? Did he just upload a video? Or am I missing something here?

The demo is using a recorded video in the left view, with JS processing on the right. When he (I) was developing it, I used VLC to stream the webcam to the page.
If you view-source, I've got a link to the documentation on how I did that: "To use this with a webcam instead of a saved video you'll need to stream your webcam via the same domain this is running from. http://nicklothian.com/blog/2009/11/17/using-a-webcam-with-h... has some docs on this."
