Web cameras are really inexpensive
these days. With no technical knowledge, you can hook up
one or several to your PC and create own surveillance
system, much like CCTV (closed circuit television). But
you'll need the right tools first.
Active WebCam
Active WebCam captures images up to 30 frames per second
from any video device including USB and Analog cameras,
TV-boards, Camcorders and Network IP cameras. The program
broadcasts captured content or from your computer or
uploads it to FTP server. Broadcasting can be viewed using
any Internet browser; no plug-ins or downloads required.
The program performs simultaneous recording and
broadcasting from unlimited number of cameras. Your camera
/ cameras can be used as surveillance system. When the
program detects motion in the monitored area, it sounds
alarm, e-mails you captured images, starts broadcasting,
or records video. Live broadcasting as well as recording
can be password protected that all video and audio
information are scrambled and cannot be viewed without
valid password. The program has features to place image
overlays and date/time stamp on each video frame, and
adjust picture size / quality.
