Wireless Camera transfer to Pocket PC

hi
I spent allot of time searching the net for a wireless camera (for security purposes) that has the ability to transfer live video to my Qtek2020i which is wireless enabled.
I am not looking for an IP cam, I dont want to view the video by connecting to GPRS, I want my pocket pc to find the camera as a wireless access point and using some software I want to see the video from that camera, is there anything like that?
all of the wireless cameras I found has a reciever device to connect to TV or VCR and this is not what I want, and the others has the capability to send the video to internet and by accessing the site from the PDA you can see the video, this is also unwanted for me.
so please tell me if there is such a cam and how to buy it and how much, I really need such a product for controlling my office while I am moving in the building, my job includes moving allot to different offices, so I need to check if anyone mess around in my office during my absence directly. i dont want to record then watch, I need something live !
thanks
There is. But you sound muddled about what you want.
You can get WI-FI 802.11b IP webcam's with built-in webserver. Like the Axis 206W. Google it.
You wont need GPRS/WAP connection just a WI-FI connection. This would be only a short distance view on your office. If you need long distance then you really need to use GPRS.
I dont know if this combo works but in theory it should.
You'll never find something integrated; what you need is a simple IP camera AND one/some wi-fi access point.
Btw, if your goal is to get real-time notification of fellon while he is messing, it is enough to set the IP camera to send you e-mail when some activiy is detected. Almost all IP camera have this capability built in.
I have some experience, my company operates in IP based video surveillance systems and I bought my wizard expressely to use it as portable monitor (using gprs only when wi-fi is not accessible).
Ask for more, if needing.

if you want to just view your pc webcam on you pda via wifi, you could use webxcamxp pro. I use this to watch my car out side my house, the webcam is connected to my mce machine in the front room and i can see the webcam on my wizard anyware via wifi, via pocket ie
You need Wireless AV Receiver for Camera, 1.2ghz and a cammera Sharp Pro CCD, 32mm 12v you got Night Bulet version also. you need to use google so you can find them
Hi
Is it possible to record directly to my pda using a WIFI IP webcam.
Thanks

Could you please point me to a link where I can get that program please? thanks!
View Commander for pocket PC
I run a Panasonic BB-HCM331 IP camera.
To connect I have attached to a Wireless client device via the ethernet port.
This in turn connects to my wireless router.
Allocate one of your public IP addresses to the camera this will keep it off your network. Then input this ip address into View Commander and Hey Ho you have a transportable wireless IP cam. Great for watching your garden in the Pub.
Demo available at www.cccamera.co.uk.
Bonus this is Pan Tilt and Zoom. Even works over GPRS
Cheers

VPN via "server PC"

Hi All,
I recently acquired a chromecast and would very much like access to the BBC Iplayer (I live in the netherlands). I can already watch Iplayer on my phone using the VPN option in android but once I try to watch it on chromecast it doesn't start the stream which is probably because the chromecast is connected to my home network which is not behind the VPN. I also can't mirror screen since I loose connection from my phone to the chromecast as soon as I connect my phone to the VPN.
Now I read that it is possible to do with a DDWRT router but I do not have one of those and I wouldn't want my whole network to be on a different IP, just the chromecast & if needed my phone. I do however have something that I would like to consider a lot more powerful than a router, namely a "Server PC" running windows XP professional. Would I be able to use this server and enable the VPN on it and then make the chromecast connect to the server? Would I need 2 USB wireless adapters or 1 (so my phone connects to 1 and the chromecast to the second. My server connects via ethernet to my modem)? Could I somehow configure this USB adapter to be connected to the VPN by default? Could I use virtualization software? I would like the most clean option preferably without affecting the rest of my server (but it would be OK if the server is temporarily in the UK until I have watched the show). Perhaps this topic can be extended to other devices with wireless capabilities like NAS and raspberries etc.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Ok so after some digging I found at least 1 way of doing it: http://alphaloop.blogspot.nl/2014/01/raspberry-pi-as-vpn-wireless-access.html
However I still think this should be possible on a windows XP machine with a wireless adapter.
On many Windows 7 PCs with wi-fi, you can use the following to create a hosted wifi network that your chromecast can connect to:
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=XXXX key=YYYY
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
if you then share your VPN adapter's internet connection with the hosted wifi that you've created, you can connect your phone and chromecast to the same wifi XXXX and that will be connected to the internet via the VPN on the laptop.

Collect data from sensors and show on the android app, is it possible?

Hello guys!
I have a raspberry PI 3 (model b) with all necessary accessories and different sensors such as (DHT11, BMP 180, MQ-2 etc.)
So far I have managed to install Raspbian OS and log-in to PI using Putty via Wi-Fi (as I don't have external screen)
1. Is it possible to connect many sensors let's say about 3 to 5 to a single breadboard connected with raspberry PI 3?
2. Once the sensors are added successfully is it possible to collect and send data to the android app? Let's say if I create a very simple looking android app and then I can see the temperature directly from the sensor on phone?
I know there are different IoT platforms that allow sharing data in the cloud, but I want to build everything from scratch.
I am a beginner on this, so I am still studying and reading but would appreciate if someone could give me some guidance where to start.
Regards
you can use and adruino and a bluetooth module to connect it to a raspberry pi and build an app to receive and display the data from the sensors. building one myself for a project.
U can do something like this with raspberry pi + arduino
https://github.com/Ayush1325/SmartHomeModel
Raspberry pi and arduino are connected via a simple serial usb cable that comes with arduino.
It uses PubNub as the server and arduino and Android phone are connected to internet.
why not just RDP or use JuiceSSH for viewing remotely

Android Monitors with built in RJ45 hardwired connection.

Hey everyone, long time reader, first time question.
I am dealing with a 23in. android monitor, really its just a large tablet with a visa mount and desktop base.
Android version 6.0.1 Kernel version 3.10.0 Perfect display out of China is the supposed manufacture, their model number is IP240WE.
I am attempting to hard wire an IP camera direct to the rj45 port much the same way I can to any pc, assign some quick ip info and achieve a live view from the camera utilizing pc software, but in this case, use the mobile software.
The trouble I am running into is that when the "monitor" is not connected to any modem or router, the darn thing wont give any network info to base my camera addressing off of. I can enable the wifi connection, then use the ipconfig tool and see all sorts of network info, still wont allow a direct connection to the camera using the hard wire rj45 port. As I understand things, android devices are new to getting the hardwired capability, that's all fine and stuff, but how the heck to turn on the darn rj45 nic without connecting it to a managed network device???
The long and the short of this, I am asking this tablet, er, monitor.... to act like a pc when it is not connected to a managed network and have the nic active and assigning info, even if is just an ip and subnet mask. Networking things is not the issue, turning on the freaking nic is!!!!

Nest Hub with Fuchsia - USB Ethernet Bug/Regression

I have a Nest Hub with Fuchsia with a USB to Ethernet adapter attached. Ethernet in this build is only partially functional, and Wi-Fi is required for the normal functionality to be available.
Ethernet worked properly prior to the Fuchsia update, this is a regression.
I would like either a) a resolution to this issue or b) a way to block updates on my other Nest Hubs (since Fuchsia will go to everyone eventually).
Version Information:
Broken (Fuchsia):
Software Version 35.33.26.373615990
"build_info":{"build_type":2,"cast_build_revision":"1.52.256192","cast_control_version":1,"preview_channel_state":1,"release_track":"preview-stable-channel","system_build_number":"1.20210119.2.1406"}
Working (Cast OS):
Software Version 35.32.12.358248230
"build_info":{"build_type":2,"cast_build_revision":"1.52.241809","cast_control_version":1,"preview_channel_state":0,"release_track":"stable-channel","system_build_number":"241809"}
Google Home Android app version: 2.38.1.7
More Details:
As many here know, the Nest Hub smart display has a Micro-USB connector under the bottom plate. This connector can be used with certain USB to Ethernet adapters (and a Y-cable for power if needed) to connect the Nest Hub to an Ethernet network.
With the regular Cast OS (*pre-Fuchsia*), the adapters work very well. The Nest Hub recognizes that it is connected to Ethernet, and is not required to be connected to a Wi-Fi network during Setup. All functions just work.
I enrolled a Nest Hub that was working on Ethernet into the Preview program. The Nest Hub was upgraded to Fuchsia.
If you want to try it: The selection of Ethernet adapters is reduced from Cast OS.
Asix AX8877C and Asix AX88179 work as described in the following section. (AX8877B should also work.)
AX8877A does *not* work (which did previously with Cast OS).
As with the previous Cast OS (not a regression), Realtek 8152s do *not* work including the Google EA4CC-1A, even though the Fuchsia source tree lists usb-cdc-ecm.
The following works with Ethernet only (Wi-Fi not connected to AP):
DHCP
DNS (but, DNS query responses to the Nest Hub often get ICMP Port Unreachable as a reply from the Nest Hub.)
Inbound and outbound TCP connections, including to the Internet
Built-in webserver
Casting - Yes, even while the Setup screen is showing on the device, you can cast to it over Ethernet, remotely control volume, etc.
Simultaneous Wi-Fi and Ethernet functions - the Fuchsia Nest Hub will pull an IP on each interface and respond to both. But the Cast OS Nest Hub would not even attempt to connect to Wi-Fi if Ethernet was detected, and that is the behavior I want.
The following does not work with Ethernet only (Wi-Fi not connected to AP):
net.ethernet_connected in eureka_info is false (even though I queried eureka_info through Ethernet!)
net.online in eureka_info is false (even though I can make it connect to Internet radio stations through Ethernet)
Setup via Google Home app insists on Wi-Fi and will not let you skip
Smart Display shows Setup Screen (the Wi-Fi animation + "Follow the Instructions in your Google Home App")
Google Assistant - if you talk to it, you get a voice response complaining that it can't find the Wi-Fi network
Removing the Wi-Fi information after Setup does not solve the problem. However, this does provide an easy way to force the device into an Ethernet-only state for testing.
Factory reset does not solve the problem either.

Hi Pmeister,
did you solve?
Ethernet connection does not work on my Hub Max (Fuchsia), wifi connection is ok.
Thanks!
