-Camera:

Here you can select the camera you want to use from the drop down options (If you are having multiple cameras you can select from those option or if you have single camera it will automatically start capturing )
You can also adjust your camera settings (Brightness,contrast,..etc) by clicking on "Adjust Camera Properties".

-Tokens :

Click the "New Marker" button, you will see the camera flickering 3 times, during this period you will have to position your hands (with markers) in front of the camera, on the 3rd flicker you will have a still image.

Now simply drag the mouse over the markers with small circles that should only cover the part of the marker,repeat this process four times for the four markers (M,N,O & P). Check the video below:
