How to acces and IP Camera

Started by ejgonzalezg2003 July 15, 2005
Hi all,

I am using a BL2500 board, I need have a D-LINK dcs-3220 ip camera
connected to the ethernet port in the bl2500 and I have a modem
connected in the serial E. The ip camera can have a static IP address
or can get one from a DHCP server. What I need to do is to program
the rabbit in order to be able to permit remote users watch through
internet the video the camera is sending. The first step is connect
the rabbit to the internet using the modem and get a public IP
addres, the second step is to receive HTTP requests from the internet
and forward it to the local IP in the ip camera, and the last step is
send the video from the camera to the remote user.

The frist step is allmost done, but I have no idea in the other steps.

I will really appreciate your help

Thanks.

Most of these cameras have an active-x control that needs to be downloaded to the browser to work...not sure if you can do that with the rabbit boards?
Keep me posted on how you go as I am interested in a similar project! :-)

If connecting to your IP camera and viewing video/images is all you
want to do, the rabbit may not the best way to go about it. There are
are plenty of good hardware firewall/routers which will connect
between your modem and IP camera and do the job very well for you.
They'll be about 1/4 (or less) the price of a BL2500, and if you're
connecting to a DSL/Cable net connection, you could even buy one with
the modem built in for not much more.

Of course, if you need the I/O or other functionality provided by the
rabbit, or space is a critical isue, this might not be good enough,
although I'd still consider using an off-the-shelf hardware device to
provide your connection and just use the rabbit for I/O.

Hello Edourdo
 
I have already done it with a D-Link dsc-900.
You just have to include the link to the Java applet from your web cam into the web page (html) where people will access.
Exemple of code: 192.168.0.20:80 is the ip adresse and the port of the web server of the web cam

<body bgcolor="#247080" onload="Init()">

<div style="text-align: center">
<APPLET name="cvcs" CODEBASE="http://192.168.0.20:80/" CODE="xplug.class" WIDTH20 HEIGHT$0>
             <param name="RemotePort" value>

I am looking to do a smilar thing but to take a request via a radio link (4800baud) and capture single frames from the IP camera and return them to the base. I was going to try using the IP camera purely as they are gettign cheap and the Rabbit has ethernet capability
