I someone at SIGGRAPH from Carnegie Melon who told me that 8 of their grads in the HCI dept went on to an internship for Linden Labs and were working on just such a thing (Mitch Kapor mentioned it at SLB5). But I’m not sure that this is the same team.
Likewise, this team is using a regular webcam… Mitch and his team are using the Zcam, which runs roughly about $250-300 (what I was told at SIGGRAPH). See the demo for that below

B!G on Respect – Sandbox Rules
The B!G on Respect campaign continues in our Sandbox. Running a sandbox, or public building space, in Second Life may seem like a daunting task. Users must respect each other’s space and abide by the rules. One of the things that makes our sandbox a great place to socialize and work is the level of respect each user gives one another. Our new slogan, “B!G on Respect,” will stay posted in the sandbox to promote a high level of courtesy towards our fellow Second Life resident.
