Question: I'm looking for a security camera that I can mount in my doorway and
which I can watch on either (or both) my computer and TV. Can anyone give
me personal recommendations about security camera with discount ?
Answer:X10 has an assortment of cameras that will do the job. They are wireless,
which makes installation nice. They do have a USB device that can be used
to get any camera with an RCA jack to work with the computer, and you could
get a receiver module for by your computer and another one for by your TV
and have them both receiving the same signal.
They have software that comes free with the hardware too, but you get what
you pay for. Check out http://www.homedomination.com/ for some really good software
that will let you monitor multiple cameras, and take snapshots automatically
via macros. Macros can be created to do virtually anything too, and you'll
be able to monitor and control your home from anywhere in the world. It's
just about to be released as a Beta version, so if you sign up as a Beta
tester, you'll get to use it for free during the Beta period, and you'll get
a hefty discount on the release product. Plus, if there's anything you want
it to do that it can't already do, if you request it, the chances are good
that ability will be added.
