asmith Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Hey, Someone asked me if I can make him a site which he could watch his offices (in 2 different cities) by this site. Actually I have no idea about it, Is it possible? How can I achieve such thing?

JasonLewis Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 What do you mean by "watch"? Like, have an actual live image of the offices being transmitted? Please elaborate.

dclamp Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 What do you mean watch? Webcam? You are going to need a webcam for that as well as software to stream it on the internet.

asmith Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 Like, have an actual live image of the offices being transmitted? Yes that would do it . @dclamp , Long time I haven't work with web cams, Are they this much powerful to give you live image of an office room? and If so, How to make it send it somewhere online so that I could grab it?

dclamp Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Now a days good webcams come with software that will allow you to connect to it via the internet. Before you code, you need to figure out what webcam your using.

peranha Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Just go with an IP camera, and not worry about software. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/135766-watching-someplace-by-webpage/#findComment-707771 Share on other sites More sharing options...
