I have no experience with DevExpress so I want to know if it has a WebCam control for WPF that allow me to capture a photot from a digital camera?
Yes, DevExpress offers the Camera Control for WPF applications, allowing for the capture of images from webcams.

Is there any ASP.NET web control specialized in displaying video?
Thanks
Media players are very easy to set up in Silverlight, which embeds easily into ASP.NET. Silverlight provides an ASP.NET control as one option for embedding.

Or you can consider using Silverlight:

I'd like to run drop shadow on Bitmap class in ASP.NET and I'd be really happy if GPU could do that. Any chance of this happening?
Update: I'd like to do that on server side. It doesn't really have to be ASP.NET app, it could be console app or windows service.
The issue is there is no hardware accelerated method to capture a visual to a bitmap. RenderTargetBitmap uses the software render path. You can however get RTB to work in an ASP.NET application, but it is not a supported scenario.
How about running Silverlight embedded in ASP.NET?
I am a Web developer in ASP.Net. Just I heard about WPF.Is WPF is for Desktop stuff or can
i use all WPF controls in my web application?. When i visit the microsoft website it talsk much about designer tools (expression,blend),where can i get web developer perspective vidoes of WPF (Just drag the control on my form and set the properties for coding)?
Bottom line is this - WPF is a desktop technology. It's very closely related sibling - Silverlight requires a runtime much like Flash to run in the browser.
Silverlight components/controls/applications can be hosted inside of an asp.net application but the idea that your skills will just 'carry over' is grossly misguided. Silverlight uses the same core languages (C#, VB.NET etc and a subset of the .NET Framework) so to that extent that knowledge is valuable but both WPF and Silverlight use a declarative presentation language called XAML or (XML Application Markup Language). XAML is what HTML can only dream to be - it is extremely powerful and elegant and has rich support for things like binding.
From a tooling perspective - Expression Blend is really a XAML designer that can target Silverlight or WPF applications.

UPDATE: Ray makes some good points in the comments section about WPF controls and the XBAP type (Xaml Browser Applications)
If you are developing intranet applications, you might also consider WPF XBAPs(XAML Broswer applications). Clickonce enables very interesting deployment scenarios of WPF XBAPs in intranet environment.
WPF XBAPs can provide more features than silverlight because XBAPs can make use of full .NET framework. Having said that silverlight is really amazing for developing Line Of Business applications.
Hope this helps.
You CAN use WPF for your web application. I have done so on several occasions.
To deploy WPF to a web browser you wrap your content in Page controls and create what is called an XAML Browser Application ("XBAP"). XBAPs can do almost everything that a full WPF application can do except access the local computer and call unmanaged code.
At present XBAPs are significantly more powerful than Silverlight, though that gap is closing quickly. I expect in another year or two Silverlight will be as good as XBAP for web deployment.
WPF is solely for desktop applications. Silverlight is very similar to WPF however and can be used as a Flash replacement, so your skills carry over.

i'm currrently looking for a solution which is integrate webcam (at client side) with my web application that programmed . i need to detect client webcam and then stream the capturing video from the webcam to my web application and then allow them to capture image by clicking button on my web application.
Plz help your prevoius topics also didn't helped.Plz provide me a sample application for this.The ApI to be used.
I think as you should have seen from the previous answers, there aren't any free api's that allow you do this.
You'll need a Flash object to interact with the web cam, talking to a Flash Communication Server to capture the video, and go from there.

Coolite facilitates DialogBox, Window, form, etc. (i.e. most of the controls similar to Desktop GUIs). Is there any other library like 'Coolite Toolkit' for ASP.NET ?
Free or fee? Telerik and Infragistics both have extensive control libraries for ASP.NET that include both server-side and client-side components. Most, if not all, of these controls would work with ASP.NET AJAX. Microsoft hosts a community control gallery with many more on their ASP.NET site.
Free use;
there is BackBase Ajax Framework built in Java but can be used through script blocks.
