DavidR 0 Posted February 5, 2004 I'm working on a traffic monitoring system in Latin America. We need to get video feed from the cameras via GPRS, as there is no LAN infrastructure to work with. But there is a good Cell infrastructure. Do any nework cameras support PCMCIA, so I could use a GPRS PCMCIA modem? Or is there another way to get the video feed onto GPRS?

Or is there another way to get the video feed onto GPRS? havent seen an actual camera that does this, as it would need a form of digital modem. You just want to trasmit the video via cell phone is that right? If so there are a couple manufacturers that make 1 channel - 16 channel boxes, such as OZ Line, and some others.

DavidR 0 Posted February 6, 2004 Yes, Linudix makes a 2-channel box with a PCMCIA slot. I'm checking with them now... I have seen some cameras with PCMCIA slots. Talked with IQeye, they have a camera with PCMCIA slot, but they only have drivers for 802.11. No GPRS. Any other thoughts welcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DavidR 0 Posted February 12, 2004 Yeah, I'm talking about CCTV cameras. The one I saw that had a PCMCIA slot, that's IQEye, had 802.11 drivers but no GPRS drivers. So no joy there. We're investigating external options now. Linudix is looking good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
