My brother is seeing what I'm doing with my BI system and how I can remotely access the cams and see the recordings. I set up a BI system for my parents which is actually better than my own and he's seen that. Of course we have thousands of $$$ in our systems because of the number of cams and equipment we have for a whole house external cam system. He lives in a high rise condo in a major city and his condo must be around 900 sq-ft. He would like to set up a system that has only has 2 or 3 cams inside the condo as the building has a doorman and security for the hallways and entry to the high rise building. I doubt he wants to mount a cam on the patio overlooking the city.
He wants a system that records and is accessible from a computer or mobile phone. The system needs to include triggers for events but I see he's already said he wants triggers for the front door opening but not the cat walking around. With a place that small and since it's all internal I'm thinking WiFi cams (god forbid, I know!). Anyhow, he might be able to run some Cat6 under the carpet if need be. But, what would you suggest for a small system like this. Although it'd be nice to have him put together a small Blue Iris system I wonder if that is really overkill for a small condo with 2 or 3 cams. What is the ideal solution for a small system that records and give access from a computer and a mobile device? Suggestions?
