Is there any way to filter UIImagePickerController camera input?

I mean, I need to implement some camera like socialcam or viddy that capable to use filters. I have made some class that use as composition an UIImagePickerController class, I have customized it's cameraOverlayView and now I don't know how to filter picker's camera input, then show picker preview filtered and capture it. Do I need to implement my own camera based on GPUImage examples instead?
Yes, you'd need to use the GPUImage filter pipeline to get this kind of realtime image adjustment for your incoming video. You won't be able to do this as a simple overlay on the default UIImagePickerController.
