General question re computer webcam and stand alone webcams
« on: May 15, 2011, 10:01:46 AM »
Hi - I am a webcam newbie and I am interested in iCam for my iPhone. I understand that I could use my computer's webcam to provide the video feed, but is it possible to use a stand alone webcam?

Yes, iCam works with both webcams built-in to laptop and stand-alone  webcams that connect to a network either wireless or wired. I have an old MacBook running iCamsource and have 1 wired and 3 wireless network webcams. From my iPhone and iPad I can see the 4 webcams and Macbook's built-in cam.

The key thing to understand iCam is that you need to have a computer ( windows or mac) constantly running the companion, free iCamsource program. Check the skjm.com website for the details.
