Webcam with web remote control (release 1.1.0)
This widget shows a webcam with remote control capability through the web browser. It is possible to move the webcam left/right and up/down (pan and tilt). In order to move the webcam, just click on the "Webcam Control" in the bottom-left area of the widget. A small popup window will open with the left/right/up/down commands.
I developed this motorized webcam system, based on an open source project hosted on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/openwebservo
The purpose of this widget is to show the motorized webcam in action. You can remotely move the webcam and explore the nearby environment.
At this moment this webcam is installed in my studio (laboratory), so people can connect and explore it.
The new version (1.1.0) released on April 9, 2007 has an improved control of the webcam movement. There are four control buttons (left, right, up, down) directly on the image. So no popup window will be opened.
