I am working toward installing a web cam for the purposes of selling advertising. We had one at this location a few years ago but took it down. Still have the original camera but it's old technology and really needs an update.
The camera will be mounted to an antenna mast and fairly high up so access for maintenance will be somewhat of a pain. Needs to be a PTZ with at least a 25x zoom. Web users can take control of the camera and move to various presets. On the original setup users could zoom pan and tilt with a browser control, but we'll probably only have presents on this one.
I've been looking at Brownrice for the camera feed. We did our own setup last time but their's looks like a good out of the box alternative with pretty much what I want. They recommend Axis hardware and it gets sort of pricey. Just wondering if there are other good reliable cameras that might fit the bill?
