macOS big Sur camera not available

Hi All. I dont know if anyone else is having this problem, but i noticed today that after updating to macOS Big Sur, my macbook pro is no longer recognizing my in built camera. I noticed it first in Facetime, and then also checked under Hardware and it is no longer recognizing the inbuilt camera.
