At first, on Catalina and higher os camera was not even detected by facetime.
just before the update somehow facetime/photobooth was working just perfect.
Post updating, back to the square one of camera not working properly.
Details:
green light blinking.
Looks like the camera driver is getting aborted and starting again.
Suggestion: A camera driver update could fix this issue.
Device: Macbook Air 2015
OS: Big Sur 11.5.1

Hello kilobytesumeet,
Let's try a test user account to see if it works there: Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac
If it doesn't, or issues persist, reach out to Apple Support: Contact Apple for support and service
Cheers!
I tried using Safe Mode, in that camera device is not detected in system information or on facetime/photobooth.
Whereas in normal mode camera device is detected. Tried resetting SMC too still no success.
Does this happen in all applications? -- Yes
