make your own IP camera ?

[HeadsUp 0]

i have seen brand new digital camera CCD chips and board assemblies for sale on "that internet place "

 

Olympus , Canon , Nikon etc for $ 6 - 50

 

pretty cheap

 

Edited..... i just searched there again today but there is less cheap sellers of CCD assemblies

 

has anyone tried making their own IP camera out of one of these ?

 

if you chose one with 5 - 8 megapixels , one that has the hardware option of video recording as well as still images........

 

does this not lend itself to the manufacture of an IP cam ?

 

 

you would need to set up the power supply to match what the camera uses and find the video output connections.

 

( there will probably be a few different video outputs depending on resolution setting options )

 

you could theoretically use either megapixel lenses or traditional.

 

 

any creative adventurous folk among you ?

probably unneccessary while this kind of thing is available below

 

IP camera sensor boards for kit fabrication of custom cameras , which is what i wanted anyway

It may take millions of dollar and years of time to just develop some usable prototypes.
