Netcam Studio: Simple video monitoring using your webcam

Simple video monitoring using your webcam

Specialized video monitoring equipment is incredibly expensive. Unless you own a business and need a solid video surveillance infrastructure to keep your assets secure, you most likely won’t afford such hardware.

Nevertheless, there’s a simple solution that’s perfect for home use and/or other small spaces. Netcam Studio is a free and friendly utility that offers a reliable video monitoring solution using your webcam. IT also lets you record the stream.

Netcam Studio has a server component and a client one. The server component can monitor up to 4 video sources.

Netcam Studio includes a well-rounded collection of features to make video monitoring reliable and effective. Through remote monitoring you can access webcam feeds from almost any device that’s connected to the Internet or a web browser. The application has clients available for Windows, iOS, Android and Windows Phone as well as Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer web browsers.

Through motion and speed detection you can configure the program to react only when it’s needed. Plus you can also enable audio detection that can be really useful in various situations – such as in dark rooms or for baby monitoring.

Since you won’t be watching your webcam(s) at all times, the application lets you easily set up notifications via SMS and/or email so you’ll always know when an event occurs in the monitored area(s).
