I am running the pi camera and want to know if I can make the output of the camera my desktop image. The camera is running constantly and I am using software to capture a short video whenever a motion sensor is triggered.
It would be nice to see the current camera output on the desktop.

I am running a pi V1 (the one with the four USB ports) running from NOOBS 2.3 and choosing Debian with the pixel system.
