I'm using webcam application. I
can webcast Internet video to view my apartment
from anywhere.
With my new
webcamera application, I can run a streaming webcast
of my home visible from the Internet. This opens up a number
of opportunities, the surface of which has not even been scratched in today's world. I can use
this webcast for surveillance purposes, allowing me to see what's going on in my apartment
at any time from a remote watching pc.
As long as I have the webcam
running and a remote station with Online access, I can watch the site.
With the software and the webcam, I can change the options to capture video,
detect motion (if I don't want to keep the webcam running at all times),
or use a mixture of a live feed and recorded video to realize a protection
system that takes full advantage of recent technology.
With a capture card,
I can simply transfer related video and screenshots to use on
any station.
With delicate files on my computer
and valuable stuff in my apartment,
it only makes sense to have a protection setup that I can supervise whenever I feel that my privacy
is being compromised. If I owned a small business or lived with roommates, I couldn't imagine
living without it.
Webcam software detects motion, triggers
siren, captures snapshots, records video, and sends captured images by e-mail
Webcamsare fine for more than just making internet communications
more sensible. They can additionally be
an awfully valuable device
for exploit in home or industry protection.
Application
is now accessible that can sense activity and use
it as a trigger for different actions.
The way that
it works is to study the image sent by a webcam that is either connected via USB
or through a video capture card for movement. After it picks up
that movement, it can then take any number of actions,
including triggering an siren.
An other popular software, though, is to either
send live frames of what is happening in the scene that is covered by the webcam
or to even broadcast via live broadcasting accurately what is
happening with both audio and picture. If installed covertly,
this application could even be used for stealthy surveillance.
Given the
large amount of systems that either have a webcam attached
or can support one, this is an excellent way to inexpensively and effortlessly guard
the region across that workstation
from infringement or theft.
Streaming live video and sound from capture device
using camera server application
Surveillance software
If you find yourself with a need to record security video with a camera over an area,
camera
server application
may be the right choice for you. Using this application, it is possible to set up a
camera to detect activity and begin recording when it does.
Depending on your needs, the sights and sounds that are picked up by the camera may be stored on a hard drive, or if the captured video
needs to be accessible off-site, can be broadcast using the server's broadcasting
function to a webpage.
Depending on the quality of the webcam and the viewer's video card, the picture that is recorded may be as clear as a high-definition television signal.
Using a install like this, it is possible to provide a measure of security for an area while
the economics of the situation do not justify hiring a security business or setting up a professional monitoring system.
This
do-it-yourself approach
can save money while not compromising on protection.
