antdav 0 Posted March 21, 2006 I have been asked to sort out a camera on a crane showing the construction site. Planning on an IP camera with a wireless link back to base. Then upload stills and potentially stream video files to an ftp link to our web space. (is this right?) I would plan to set still capture intervals of perhaps every 2 or 4 hours for most of the time and perhaps on an occcassion reduce this briefly for 5 days to maybe every hour to capture stills to make into a time lapse in the future. We have found this software - do any of you have any experience of this and or have any recommendations to help me please including company name, contacts or telephone numbers for the UK and USA. http://www.pysoft.com/ActiveWebCamScreenShots.htm Many thanks AntDav Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nextan 0 Posted March 22, 2006 Have done a couple of such installation using ACTi's system: http://www.securitypark.co.uk/article.asp?articleid=24744&CategoryID=9 http://www.securitypark.co.uk/article.asp?articleid=24790&CategoryID=1 or from ACTi's site which has some illustrations: http://www.acti.com/Press_RoomV2/News.Asp Particularly for the Pinnacle@Duxton 50-storey apartmentd project, we will be mounting the 2nd camera on the main tower crane which will eventually be raised to 200 meters height. With IP cameras like ACTi's system, you can actually stream live video instead of through a FTP server. IN most of our projects, we require only 128 Kbps to stream a CIF size 5 frames per second live video. If you want to have a feel of the live video streaming from these sites, PM me your email address. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
