RE: BabyCam



Mark,

This sounds fantastic. I hope that you & the misses will be up
for letting us have a copy of it.

What I currently find missing from IM is a beep though so that
if I didn't respond someone could force a loud wav file to be played.

Regards,

Paul

Haha, there's the clever part!

One of the things "under development" is an _IM_ client to do
Windows
automation.

By sending an IM to "my house" with a pre-defined syntax and
password, I
can make it automate things ;-)

Idea by Paul Gordon, implementation by Mrs H. just as soon as she starts
maternity leave ;-)

Sounds like a good idea but how are you going to get netmeeting to
automatically accept a conversation??

Got my "UKHA BabyCam" from Henry's this lunchtime
(www.henrys.demon.co.uk)

The shop is "an experience".

The plan, BTW, is as follows:

Phase 1: Monitoring from home

- Camera into KAT5 TX
- Down CAT5 cabling (now fitted into nursery, thanks to Paul Wooton and
James Hoye)
- Back out into KATRX
- Into meridian switch (controlled by Pronto)

Phase 2: Monitoring from outside

- Wire the _video_ loop of the Meridian into a "TV-in" card
- Allow the Webserver to configure HomeVision to do such switching on
request
- Use NetMeeting to see nursery ;-)

Regards,

Marki
