New Idea for a show.

e14 Contributor
e14 Contributor over 13 years ago

#AskBenHeck Hi Ben. I'm a big fan of your shows, I like the way you create things with almost anything. I was wondering if you have an idea for this.

I have a Dome 4.5" Pan/tilt/zoom Security Ip Network Camera 3x Optical Cmos Ir-cut System, model AJ-C0WA-C0D8

example (www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008414K7Q) that I was using as a security system in my house, but then I bought a CCTV security system and I'm wondering if the Wireless camera can be converted to work with the CCTV security system keeping the same pan/tilt/zoom functions. I was searching for information but I was able to find ways to use CCTV cameras as a wireless cameras using converters but not to work in the other way.

 

Thanks.

    Throw a Raspberry Pi at it.  And by that, I mean use the Pi to bring up the cam(s) on screen and use the video output from the Pi as the input on one of the CCTV channels.  For controlling it, you can either use the web interface or use the Pi's IO to read some buttons/josticks, but then you have to somehow tie that IO into the web interface the cameras use.  I'm not a web programmer, but that part doesn't sound super easy to do.
