Streaming online video and audio from capture device
using webcamera server application
Surveillance software
If you find yourself with a need to record security video with a webcamera over an area,
webcam
server application
may be the right choice for you. Using this software, it is possible to set up a
camera to detect motion 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 webcast using the server's streaming
feature to a web site.
Depending on the quality of the camera and the viewer's video card, the picture that is recorded may be as clear as a high-definition television signal.
Using a setup 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 firm or setting up a professional monitoring system.
This
do-it-yourself approach
can save money while not compromising on security.
New professional protection application works with
any webcamera, IP cameras, and major capture cards.
Security application
has become so sophisticated that the normal
businessman who has been busy minding his office instead of pouring over electronics and internet
know-how articles can be easily overwhelmed when it comes time to setup or renew his security system.
Fortunately, there is new professional security application that simplifies much of the decision making.
You don't necessarily have to get rid of a working analog closed circuit TV system in order to modernize to a broadcasting
video that can be watched from any online connected computer or 3G phone. Video capture cards can digitally convert the
images for webcast. Until yesterday, there had been no real attempts to regulate the new IP
cameras; every make and manufacturer functioned a little differently. And when you put web cameras into the
merge, finding one software to control them all was heavy.
Professional surveillance application
is now available that will work for any webcam
or Internet webcam and for most capture cards as well. You can monitor anything your activity
sensors are picking up at your home or business while you can be half a world away.
The application itself may not be simple, but it can get life simpler for you.
I'm using webcam software. I
can webcast Internet video to watch my home
from everywhere.
With my new
web camera application, I can run a streaming show
of my home visible from the Internet. This opens up a group
of possibilities, the surface of which has not even been scratched in today's world. I can use
this broadcast for surveillance purposes, allowing me to see what's going on in my home
at any time from a remote viewing station.
As long as I have the webcamera
running and a remote workstation with Internet access, I can view the home.
With the application and the webcam, I can change the settings to capture picture,
detect activity (if I don't want to keep the camera running at all times),
or use a mixture of a live feed and recorded video to realize a protection
system that takes full benefit of new technology.
With a capture card,
I can easily transmit related video and screenshots to use on
any station.
With sensitive files on my station
and valuable stuff in my apartment,
it only makes sense to have a security setup that I can supervise whenever I feel that my privacy
is being compromised. If I owned a small company or lived with roommates, I couldn't imagine
living without it.
