Video Cam Server (VCS)
is a server for
publishing the image
taken from a
Video Camera
(especially
Web Cam
) connected to it. It will be very useful for
remote monitoring
your home, office or other environment.
VCS uses HTTP to publish your image on the internet, therefore, you are able to
access the image using a
Web Browser
(e.g. Internet Explorer, Netscape or etc.)
Why
Video Cam Server
?
Publish in your own server or Using embedded Web Server
One of the main reasons you should choose Video Cam Server is that we allow
you to publish your image to your
own server
or our
Embedded Web Server
come together with VCS (also running on your computer), instead of putting the
captured result to the Provider's sites.
If you do not want to host a web server on your personal computer, we provide an
alternative to upload captured image to your web hosting's ftp server.
Access Any Video Cam/ Web Cam
Video Cam Server is based on the DirectShow 9.0 technology, therefore, nearly
all kinds or video camera or web cam are supported. If you have many video
camreas connected simulatanously, you can choose one of the them for
publishing.
