- "uvcdynctrl": This is the name of the command-line tool used for controlling UVC devices.
- "-l": This option instructs uvcdynctrl to list the available controls.
When you run this command, it queries the webcam connected to your system and retrieves a list of all the control options supported by the camera. These controls represent various functions and settings that you can adjust, such as brightness, contrast, focus, zoom, exposure, etc. The output typically includes the name, range, and current value of each control.
