Converting multiple webcams into 1 image

heya,

For our school project we have to make an interactive installation for children. We came up with the idea to teatch them how a display works by letting them make images with white and black wooden tiles, from above 4 webcams (1 cant record the whole surface, its 3 by 3 meters) will record it and a beamer will beam the image on the wall (a bit smaller so the "pixels" are shown sharp)

so..now we are having problems making this work, especially to make the recordings of the webcams into 1 image

any tips perhaps?

Any chance of having the code for the multiple webcams?

You could position the cameras and export a frame as a PDF using the library. Repeat until the images fit together or do a quick merge in photoshop?
