What Can NetCam Do For Me?
A lot! A live image on your web site is probably the easiest and most effective way
to dramatically increase traffic and awareness. Nearly all of our customers report a
large increase in traffic due to the presence of live web images and many turn their
live camera page into the entry point of their site!
Other common applications of remotely accessible live images include monitoring your
home or office, keeping an eye on the weather or viewing current traffic conditions.
Because of NetCam's outstanding image quality, it can
serve as a high definition security camera when coupled with the optional
Network Recording Software.
Other areas where StarDot Internet Cameras are used include: day care centers,
hotel/tourist sites, beach/surf cam sites, construction sites and the monitoring of
remote equipment. See why NetCam's image quality is the best in the industry... view

How Does NetCam Work?
It depends on your application. NetCam was designed to be extremely flexible, which
allows it to be used in virtually any scenario. The following breaks down the basic modes
that NetCam can operate in.
Image Server - Once you connect NetCam to the Internet (or private
network) and assign it an IP address (web address), it can act as both a digital camera
and a web server. This means that anyone with a web browser can browse to NetCam's
address and see live digital images. Securing NetCam is as simple as enabling password
protection.
Image Client - If you expect to broadcast your live images to a lot
of viewers or you're interested in keeping an archive of camera images, NetCam can be
configured to automatically upload live images to the web server of your choice.
Configuration - To set up NetCam, one only needs a web browser
(or you can use the included StarDot Tools setup software). A simple, intuitive series
of browser-based menus step you through the basics of getting NetCam up and running.
Advanced features allow you to change everything from image size and quality to the
color and size of the font in the image overlay. For more detailed information of NetCam,
you can download the
NetCam Brochure (requires
Acrobat Reader, available free).
