Anyone has an idea about how would be possible to trigger a usb camera and storage images without use Cheese or similar software, just comand lines / shell script or phyton script? Basically I would like to trigger my usb Cam every 1.72 seconds and store the pictures in a local folder. Using Ubuntu 22.04 here.

I have 2 integrated cameras and one external in a usb 3.0 port.

that's what lsusb shows:
