Dog-Cam Update
Since the Firewire port got smoked on my good DV cam I’ve modified the dog-cam setup. Here you go
- Logitech Webcam C250 mounted on the filing cabinet in my office
- Stickam account which is free (no adult content allowed)
- Code to embed the stickam player in a blog/web page can found here (or you could just point people to your stickam profile)
- Place to mount camera (keep in mind you’re filming a dog – keep it dog safe – video of your dog eating your webcam might be interesting to others but you and the vet might not find it as amusing).
- A Dog my guess is this will be the most significant cost you’ll incur
Once you’ve got your webcam software installed and running you can sign-on to your stickam account (you created earlier) and click the “Go Live” button. This will begin streaming video. You could just use the link to you’re profile on Stickam or you can be way geeky like me and embed the stickam player on your own page.
That’s all there is to it – 5 simple things you need to stream video of your smelly dog to the world! If you click here you’ll see the computer in a tool box I use when I want to be ‘mobile’ with the webcam.
