Web camera software identifies activity, sounds
alarm, captures snapshots, records video, and sends captured images by e-mail

Webcams
are usefull for more than just making internet conversations
more sensible. They can additionally be
an extremely practical device
for use in home or commercial security.

Software
is now available that can identify activity and use
it as a trigger for various procedures.

The way that
it works is to analyze the picture sent by a camera that is either attached through USB
or through a video capture card for motion. Once it picks up
that motion, it can then take any number of actions,
including triggering an alarm.

A more popular application, though, is to either
send live frames of what is happening in the field that is covered by the webcam
or to even webcast by live broadcasting accurately what is
happening with both audio and image. If installed surreptitiously,
this software could even be used for covert surveillance.

Given the
large amount of devices that either have a webcam attached
or can support one, this is an perfect way to inexpensively and easily defend
the region across that property
from intrusion or theft.

I'm using webcam application. I
can broadcast Ip video to view my home
from everywhere.

With my new

webcamera software, I can run a broadcasting webcast
of my site viewable from the Internet. This opens up a number
of possibilities, the surface of which has not even been scratched in today's world. I can use
this webcast for surveillance purposes, allowing me to watch what's going on in my home
at any time from a remote viewing pc.

As long as I have the camera
running and a remote workstation with Internet access, I can watch the site.
With the application and the webcam, I can change the settings to capture picture,
identify activity (if I don't want to keep the webcam running at all times),
or use a mixture of a online feed and recorded video to implement a protection
system that takes full advantage of modern technology.

With a capture card,
I can easily move appropriate video and screenshots to use on
any workstation.

With sensitive files on my station
and precious stuff in my site,
it only makes sense to have a protection setup that I can monitor whenever I feel that my privacy
is being compromised. If I owned a small firm or lived with roommates, I couldn't imagine
living without it.

Surveillance application

If you find yourself with a need to record surveillance video with a camera over an area,

webcam
server software

may be the right choice for you. Using this software, it is possible to set up a
camera to detect activity and begin recording once 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
feature to a website.

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 firm or setting up a professional monitoring system.

This

do-it-yourself approach

can save money while not compromising on security.
