"Bluescreeneffects" without blue Background

Hi,
i’m totally new to vvvv and i’m not sure if its the right application for what i like to do. So i hope you can help me!

I like to do the following:
Put a Camera (Video or Webcam) in a room. Then “calibrate” the still Image of the empty room. Now whenever somebody is going in this room, you can press a button and the camera is taking a picture. I think there is no problem with this ;)
Now comes the hard part: I Like to cut everything out in the taken picture which wasn’t there wenn the Camera was Calibrated! So for example: if one person is going to the room an take a picture, i like to have only a picture from the person, so i can change the background of the picture (the room) to what ever i want! Normaly i would take the picture in front of an blue wall, but i like do do it in a normal room!

I hope you understand what i mean…

Is this possible with vvvv!? Any hints or examples how this can be done?
