Great picture quality Kevin,I can only tell it's live because the willow is moving in the wind.!!

I've missed most of your last weeks efforts after only being on mobile internet, what cam and software are you using?

Looks very good to me - although I can't see the ATM you mentioned so I can't read people's PIN numbers.

Hi Kevin,

 

It's a good quality picture. I would be interested to know the technology behind it.

 

For example:

Is it over a WiFi link or 3G/Dongle internet connection ?

Is it 240 V (or Shoreline) dependant, or running off the batteries ?

How much was the web camera ?

 

Obviously, interested in the validity of a remote viewing security solution - it would be nice to 'check-in' on the boat over the Internet when not on board ! :-)

 

Many Thanks

Kind Regards

Mark

Its a Microsoft HD webccam through a laptop streaming to Vaughn. Laptop to 3g router on a cat5 cable, then use 3 mobile internet to upload. All fo this will run on 12v if you wanted but this is dependent opn your laptop. I run it on 240v but this could be easilly remotly switched usoing GSM controls.

 

The webcam was about £30 as I recall.

 

My mate Paul has a much more 'ON' stream from his truck http://www.truckcam.tv/ using the same sort of equipment.
