Webcam software senses motion, triggers
alarm, captures images, records video, and sends captured images by e-mail

Web cameras
are good for more than just making online communications
more sensible. They can also be
an very helpful device
for exploit in residence or commercial security.

Application
is now accessible that can detect activity and use
it as a trigger for countless actions.


The way that
it works is to study the image sent by a webcam that is either connected using USB
or via a video capture card for motion. After it picks up
that movement, it can therefore take any number of procedures,
including triggering an alarm.

A more popular software, though, is to either
send live shots of what is happening in the picture that is covered by the webcam
or to even webcast using online broadcasting accurately what is
happening with both sound and image. If installed covertly,
this software could even be used for secret surveillance.

Given the
large number of systems that either have a webcam connected
or can support one, this is an excellent way to inexpensively and simply guard
the zone across that workstation
from invasion or stealing.

I'm using webcamera software. I
can broadcast Ip video to watch my room
from anywhere.

With my new

webcamera software, I can run a broadcasting tv station
of my site visible from the Internet. This opens up a league
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 watch what's going on in my room
at any time from a remote viewing pc.

As long as I have the web camera
running and a remote pc with Internet access, I can watch the home.
With the application and the camera, I can change the options to capture video,
sense 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 recent technology.

With a capture card,
I can simply transmit appropriate video and screenshots to use on
any pc.

With sensitive data on my computer
and expensive belongings 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 business or lived with roommates, I couldn't imagine
living without it.

Surveillance software
If you find yourself with a need to record surveillance video with a webcam over an area,

webcamera
server application
may be the right choice for you. Using this software, it is possible to set up a
camera to detect movement 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 available off-site, can be webcast 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 protection.
