UVC means USB Video Class. The Video For Linux 2 driver system
should recognize it as a V4L2 device.

fswebcam is a package that captures images from V4L2 devices.
It's command-line driven and has a few useful features like
resizing, averaging multiple frames, and skipping early frames
for devices that take a while to focus. It writes JPEG or PNG.

Remember to make yourself part of the video group.
