This has to go into the bin for the bandwidth philosophers. This too is a
commercial security-cam product (Sorry about the patent application
Francisco!:) that can be accomplished /a lot/ more cheaply in net-costs.
(You designate the area to be watched for motion on the screen so selective
areas can be scanned. I believe it even might work on pan & tilt cameras
now, but not quite to the point of subtracting relative motion: the camera
has to be stopped for a motion and scene check...)
I applaud the motivation and the motivator here, but observing your couch,
driveway, Ohio State's parking lot(s) or even an exhibit gallery with
cu-SeeMe has to come under the Golden Fleece category...
But I will (and do) enjoy a good chuckle and lift a caffeine toast to the
folks who come up with these uses for a truly cool project.
