Cellular phones have become extremely versatile tools.
They are no longer used simply for just placing phone calls.
A new and emerging trend is to use your cell phone for
remote video surveillance of your home or business. A
company called EyeSpyFX provides
free
webcam monitoring software that is designed just for
that purpose. Their mobile video surveillance software,
called
EyeSpyFX Webcam, allows you to create your own webcam
monitoring service. We will explore some of the features and
benefits of this service throughout the remainder of this
article.
This webcam viewing software works by broadcasting a live
webcam page displaying the images captured by any webcam you
have connected to your local network. Once you download and
install the software package to your local PC, you can use
any standard web camera to capture and broadcast live
images. Live images can be accessed either through a
standard PC with internet connection, or web enabled cell
phone. When accessed through a cell phone, the broadcast web
page will automatically optimize to suit your specific
mobile phone.
The EyeSpyFX Webcam software comes with many unique
features and benefits. These include:
- Remote camera control -- If you have a web
camera that has pan/tilt/zoom functionality, you can use
EyeSpyFX Webcam to manage these controls remotely. In
addition, you can also use your cell phone to take
remote snapshots as well.
- Privacy protection -- EyeSpyFX Webcam
provides extra security and privacy protection controls
to ensure an unauthorized user cannot gain access to
your web cameras or video feeds.
- Simple to use -- This software package is
designed to be simple and easy to use. Once you download
the software, it can be installed in a matter of seconds
and will work with any ISP regardless of bandwidth
connection speed. It will also function regardless of
whether the broadcasting computer utilizes a dynamic or
fixed IP address. The software is also designed to work
with all standard web cameras and with any GPRS/GSM
color picture phone.
This free service is ideal for home surveillance
monitoring activities because you can have instant access to
your web camera no matter what your location. It brings a
completely new level of convenience to remote video
surveillance. Having such versatile access to the web
cameras in your home will provide you with a great deal of
comfort and flexibility. You can rest assured that your
child or pets are happy and well cared knowing that you have
instant access to their condition. It can also be a comfort
for those of you who travel extensively to know that you can
always have access to live images of your home, simply by
picking up your phone.
When mobile phones first came out, they redefined how we
communicated with one another. Now companies like EyeSpyFX
are able to utilize these devices to redefine the way we
think about video surveillance. No doubt, we will continue
to experience the benefits and convenience of this
technology in new and more innovative ways for a long time
to come.me.
