How to use driver software for PS3 EYE (USB)-camera?

Hi all,

I have found some driver software for the Sony PS3 EYE camera (https://github.com/inspirit/PS3EYEDriver/), usable on OS X 10.10.5. Examples to use that driver with Cinder or OpenFrameworks can be found on that github account, too. (I ran another openframeworks example provided at https://github.com/bakercp/ofxPS3EyeGrabber).

Can you give some advice on what to do in order to use that (usb2) camera driver software with (python) opencv? E.g. do I need to somehow recompile opencv (currently I'm just using the python34 variant provided by macports)?

Thanks in advance for any pointers,

Roger
