Creative webcams. Webcams Creative Live! Cam inPerson HD VF0720 and Creative Live! Cam Connect HD VF0750
Well, the best gadget is a webcam. Why is it so necessary today, in a well-informed independent vikonann? Even a leather laptop, a tablet, and a phone, a camera, and a necessary resource that allows you to download video from the hardware. On the view of webcams, yakі to tsikh fіr tіlki i vmіli, scho to transmit stislo video. And how can a webcam learn how to process video hardware in the same way as how to process a right video camera? Chi z'appear at such a time need a webcam?
Schob opinion on the food chain, known from two representatives of today's webcams. Some of these gadgets poked their way out of their rozvitku, what is the act for the rest of the rock?
Design, technical characteristics
Live! Cam inPerson HD VF0720
At the kit, I will add a cream, enter short instruction, leaflets and CD with software. The camera's USB cable is about 1.8 meters long: honestly, I wish it were longer.
The camera looks amazing. The reason for such dimensions is the choice of microphones, placed on all front sides: two in the central part and two more closer to the edge of the case.
On the gate, you can see the faceless ventilation openings, the stench is necessary for cooling the electronic filling. Even in the middle, there is a processor that can capture the video stream in hardware. The upper part of the body is equipped with a button, pressing on the yak to bring up the image or start / start the video recording (there is a lot of streaming settings in one of the programs that are added).
The fastening system is well thought out, it consists of three sections, which are spring-loaded one at a time up to 300 °. Tse allows you to place the camera on the surface, whether it be on the surface or not. It is noteworthy that all the joints are covered with humic inserts, which makes it easier to rub against the supporting surface. Such gum inserts are on the lower surface of the body, as well as on the inner side of the tongue-strip, which protrudes down from the front side of the camera.
Because of the cunning design and the gum inserts, the camera is engraved on the upper edge of the monitor or on the thin screen of a laptop.
Live! Cam Connect HD VF0750
Another camera is simpler and cheaper, as you can see from the packaging, provided with an eye for hanging on store windows.
The complete set is exactly the same as in the older model, it is less than the size of a CD. Well, it’s true, we don’t know much. Dovzhina USB-cable at the center of the camera to become 1.5 m - tezh, know, swindle, even insulting the cameras are clearly recognized for vikoristannya zі stationary PC, and stink, buva, stand here on the sidelines or on the side, far from the monitor, on which you need to pile up camera.
Here the construction is not so coherent: there are only two columns, connected by a not so tight loam.
The chamber does not have ventilation openings, just as it does not have a hardware encoder. Prote is similar to the button of the mitt sign here - it is also stashed at the upper part of the building.
Gumovyh inserts on the members of the crepe system of the entire two: on the inner side of the tongue, which plays the role of a border, and on the inner side of the stand. No matter what, the stench is also recognized for zbіlshennya rubbing when attached to the upper edge of the monitor.

Operation
Oskilki not optical zoom nі, zrozumіlo, there is no stabilizer in such chambers and it is not possible, the power supply is taken automatically from the order of the day. Natomista sings on another vital aspect: the quality of the mind in the minds of insufficient illumination. I, zokrema, vminn_ pіdlashtovuvatisya pіd umom, scho change.
Here it is necessary to look closely at both devices, which are looked at - the construction work is done quickly, and the sensitivity of the devices is like a minimum of praise. We wonder how it looks at the viconan webcam Live! Cam inPerson HD VF0720:
However, the result of this construction, like a riven of sensitivity, is still different for the cameras. Move lower still frames from a video taken by cameras in the same light levels - in dark, equivalent lighting from a working monitor.
What do you need comments here? Let's try to visualize such a breakdown, or rather, give two versions that came to mind: either the sensor's sensitivity is amazing, which is the best in the older model, or the software is miraculously implemented noise dampening. Ale, svidshe for everything, here pratsyyut obidva factori overnight.
Under the hour of testing, an unacceptable feature of the work of the older camera, in the Person HD VF0720, was noted. Why is the image constantly smirking, streaking back and forth?
Qi smikannya v_dbuvayutsya as per hour for recording video, and so with the primary (background) work. Like with good lighting, so for insufficient. For the obviousness of the intense movement in the frame and for the new presence. Simpler kazhuchi - zavzhd. Better for everything, I’ll have a pardon in robotic autofocus, and a test copy of the camera may have such a software underproduction (or a rebuild).
The next important factor is the building, which is viable. Tse painful topic. Ailments for koristuvachіv, naїvna naїvnayut, scho allowed and rasdіlna zdatnіst — the essence of the same. On the right, in what is shown on the packaging or in the specifications, the numbers 1920 × 1080 do not seem to be suitable for the size of the camera, the stink is less indicated on the size of the frame in pixels. There are no video cameras with a similar distribution building in the amateur, or in the professional segment (so do not take the complex of vartistyu in letak to respect). And if the frame is not subject to sumnivu and is easily misunderstood, then with a separate building on the right, it’s different. Її do not vyyavish, we will okrіm as for the help of natural zyomok special test tables. What did we kill:
| Live! Cam inPerson HD VF0720 | Live! Cam Connect HD VF0750 |
|
|
| Freeze frame 1920×1080 | Freeze Frame 1280×720 |
Obviously, right 1920×1080 here and it doesn’t smell, but it’s absolutely not marvelous, just to guess about the optics, what’s best in the cameras and more about the expansion of rear image sensors. But all the same, 700 and 500 lines horizontally, which we saw, is a remarkable result for such little ones! It's not surprising, I'm going to give a lot of amateur (and not only) HD video cameras. To compare, let's say that the maximum razdіlnu zdatnіst can be today's top-class amateur video cameras Panasonic, they give approximately 1100 lines horizontally (div.).
At zv'yazku z tsim, singly, let's go to the edge of the tukavim on the verge of a break: take one of the simplest, inexpensive webcams of the past fates of the release. For example, taku: Microsoft LifeCam VX-800. Nothing noteworthy, a standard camera for Skype's soulful pranks. Now we can see the table known to us by the camera.

Adzhe є progress, it's impossible to argue! I progress is serious, which threatens to overtake with no bar. Heads up for webcams - do not be stingy, win sensors more modern, bigger and better with reverse illumination technology (the so-called Back Side Illumination MOS, report). Before speech, even similar, that one of such sensors is found in the older chamber, which can be seen, as judged from the actual presence of color noise in the room with insufficient equal illumination.
The reader is asleep: and now we need all the deaths here? Even if it's a webcam, it doesn't need neither clarity nor image clarity. Let's take a look at the power supply: and now the webcam maker is so concerned about the improvement of detail and how does it increase light sensitivity?
Z PZ the most interesting program is Live! Central 3. Such a multi-handed combine that allows you to record videos, make photos, “embellish” the image, which is transmitted by different effects, etc.
Adjustment of the different capacities of the skin chamber can be different:

The change is allowed, as we change the troch by the year, it is reached by the greatest crop (crop, trim) of the image. Zvіdsi go out and razny kut zoru dermal regimens.
Unfortunately, the virobnik does not indicate the maximum cut to look at the objects. Come to be wise by yourself, in a barefoot way, signify the tsey kut. We can’t vouch for absolute accuracy, but let’s take away the blatant hostility, without question. Later, having taken those that are sometimes called a view from the window, and having set the place of the hunt with a satellite photograph, we took away the feet for the skin from the webcams, which are looked at:
Ale, let's turn to software security, what can be done. Live! Central wickedly disparages, navit in TV shows:
Such a change in the signal is seen not only in the program Live! Central, ale y at all third party add-ons, so you can broadcast video from a webcam connected to a PC using an additional WDM driver, including, of course, Skype. Schopravda, with tsimu Live! Central is guilty of both launches and pracciuvati background mode(At the burnt vіknі). І one more exchange: with robotic third-party programs Live! Cam inPerson HD VF0720 works only in software mode, without hardware squeezing - camera adjustment that changes the signal strength, available only in Live! Central. In all other programs, qi are fixed daily. Vtіm, tse is an absolutely splendid phenomenon, the most important thing is more important than the additions to the hoarded video, like a hardware coder - through drivers, like “reason” only to dodane software security .
On the stepping baby, you can see the image of the head with a straw sticking on it, with which the video appears at the window the simplest program zakhoplennya, AMCAP.
Before speech, similar to the appearance of what they put into the frame, they are not surrounded by the patterns of hats, eyepieces, and other things that are evident in the program. Behind the banners from the side of the retailer, you can add additional templates.
Nareshti, one more painful thing: what do we have in the distribution of the video that is transmitted to Skype? Vidpovid: but nothing! Irrespective of the actual performance of our technology, we recommend that we can help to transfer the HD signal so far. True, with the real SD-signal the picture looks simply miraculous: there are signs of the high sensitivity of the cameras.
Still, there is a way to move around the Internet to an HD-signal, after all. However, use stinks, as a rule, are not costless. For bajannya, you can know about a dozen resources that you can use to pronounce similar services.
Maybe, it’s a smutty hatred that has been lost in the sight of familiarity with these cameras: it’s good to make such a high diversity of buildings in the cameras that you can make such miniature optics and a matrix. Hardware squeezing the video signal is also a bad idea, but over the implementation of the warto, it would be better to improve. Zakrema, increase the bitrate of the video from the last three to a small megabit per second to ten megabits, and immediately change the Baseline encoding profile to a larger one, let's go to Main.
Entry
Personal computers have long been transformed from local, isolated one type of one outbuilding to a richly functional communication facility, replacing us with not only the usual paper mail, but also the telephone, and the other way live splkuvannya. Tsim stink of goiter is about us in front of the Internet, a boisterous development of some sort of feasibility of high-quality transmission of majestic streams of audiovisual information on any given country. І if the needs of the program of the exchange text messages becomes insufficient, modern technologies to give the opportunity to add them by voice transmission and to watch the video, moreover, in real time. Often vitrati minimal: get a webcam, which is represented on the computer market without a face. Today I will propaday to look at six similar outbuildings model range Creative company.
Technical characteristics
First go to the detailed view of the models, let's take a look at star table technical characteristics of webcams, presented in a glance:
Having sorted out the table, you can make an unusual visnovka, which are not very different from model to model; Let's figure out what's wrong.
First, why do you want to gain respect, tse vіdminnosti at the sensors, which vikoristovuyutsya. Crimea has different working permissions (and out of six protesting cameras, there is less than one hardware space, which exceeds 640x480), they can be distinguished by the type itself: CCD or CMOS. As a rule, cameras with a CCD sensor are more expensive, for the size of the sensor itself; Prote the importance of these is not obvious - although it is traditionally important that CCD-sensors are safe highest quality image (I reduce the transmission of color, less noise), it is necessary to respect that CMOS sensors have already reached such a level of development long ago, so that in the field of photographic technology, CCD was practically brought up. What can we say about webcams, de vimogi to the extent of the image is significantly lower, lower in cameras.
Well, if you tell yourself about the alarm, then it is necessary to remember that in the most vipadkiv virobnik the numbers are higher for the hardware alarm of the sensor - they come out programmatically, interpolation. Tobto, say, Live! Cam Vista IM sensor can expand the image to 640×480, but the video card driver can programmatically expand the picture up to 800×600.
Come on, maybe, more importantly - the quality of the optical system. Most of the cheaper models of webcams cannot boast even a few decent optics, which is why the geometrical appearance of the image at the edges is the most memorable for them.
To transfer audio information from the webcam computer, there is a USB interface. Bigger older or cheaper cameras support only USB 1.1 ("Full speed"), which combines the maximum speed of data transmission in them - with a separate building of 640x480 with such a camera you can’t get more than 15 frames / sec, and you can record on the other camera look not too smooth. The new cameras are compatible with USB 2.0 ("High speed"), as a result of which the image update speed for them can reach 30 fps.
At the end of the year, the complete set of the robe is also added. This may include additional software security, Skype-certificates, various telephone headsets with microphones, carrying cases and so on. To find out about everything in detail, let's take a closer look at the models that were reviewed in our test lab.
Creative Live! Cam Vista IM
Creative Live! Cam Vista IM in retail packaging
This webcam is the largest budget webcam in the Creative Live! Cam, which could not help but be included in the delivery set. Here, instead of the "hands-free" headset, the potential buyer knows only a microphone, the design of which may be on the outside, fastened on the collar of the jacket. Otherwise, hang out, tell you what headphones are available for a potential purchase (chi acoustic system- but the headphones are still better, because the stench allows you to hide problems with acoustic with a ringing sound, which appear at the sight of a characteristic thick whistle) for the sound.
Creative Live! Cam Vista IM
Mounting the camera allows you to install it on the edge of the RK monitor, as well as on a flat surface of the table. However, the camera is still easy to reach, being installed on the table, it will try to turn over through the springiness of the USB cable. With the support of Cam Vista IM, it is fixed behind an additional swivel joint, which provides two degrees of freedom: the lens can be rotated 360 degrees on the horizontal axis, and 60 degrees on the vertical axis.
Cam Vista IM is equipped with a VGA CMOS sensor with a 640x480 pixel resolution (without interpolation) and a refresh rate of 15 fps. A simple camera lens with a ring for manual focusing. Often through this simplicity, the images that appear, appear calamity, with great sharpness at the edges of the frame. Take a look at the camera image of the test table, recognized specifically for checking clarity:
Creative Live! Cam Vista IM: ISO Resolution Chart
But the reliability of the color of serious claims was not blamed. The camera pleasantly reflects both warm and cold tones:
Kozhen Myslivets Bazhaє Nobles…
The main advantage of Creative Live! Cam Vista IM - very low price, around 30 dollars. For this reason, the camera is ideal for completing primary classes, as well as a “pochatkovy” camera for learning about the possibilities of audiovisual Internet communication. Let's wonder if a 50-hundred surcharge will give you some benefits, which is necessary for adding an offensive camera to the Creative lineup.
Creative Live! Cam Video IM
Starry look Creative Live! Cam Video IM
Let's say we paid $15 extra and bought Creative Live! Cam Video IM. What do we take for qi pennies? If you take a look at the table of technical characteristics again, you can note that the cameras are practically identical in all respects, with the exception of the maximum separation capacity (moreover, only when a single freeze frame is captured), as well as the additional YUV2 video stream compression format. I those, and more, as I think, for a koristuvach it means not so rich.
And the axis of visibility in the design of the buildings is significantly remembered. So, Cam Video IM is equipped with an additional button for capturing the beast. In addition, Cam Video IM has a smaller base, as it provides more stability on the table, and also attaches the camera to the body of the RK monitor. In this rank, the surcharge will save you less short design camera body, and no more.
We need to compare the resulting test images of the two cameras. Rechecking the optical system for clarity and focus - ISO Resolution Chart.
Creative Live! Cam Video IM: ISO Resolution Chart
Like Bachimo, just like the Cam Vista IM, it is important to expand the picture from the center to the edge from the second clarity, which indicates about the same problems in the part of the optical system.
A box of colored felt-tip pens allow you to evaluate the authenticity
transfer of colors
On auto-adjustments, the camera obviously overdoes it with contrast, which in a pair with filthy optics worsens the detail of the picture even more. In color reproduction, there is a "average" of cold colors and a clear overdose of warm ones.
Creative Live! Cam Optia
Creative Live! Cam Optia in retail packaging
Camera Live! Cam Optia can achieve a unique, stylish design with a touch of white, translucent decoration of the body element. The cylinder, on which the objective is known, allows you to rotate it 270 degrees. The ring at the base of the cylinder is supplemented with a transparent insert, which is illuminated by a blue light. When you turn the lens to the lower point, if you marvel at the base of the camera, the light turns off, demonstrating that the camera is turned off in this position.
Starry look Creative Live! Cam Optia
Prozora the base of the chamber is supplemented with gum overlays, yakі pobobіgayut її forging on the table. For fixing the camera on the RK-monitor in the same stand, there is a spring insert - vtim, it’s not necessary and it’s important, like on me, “additional” at the sight of adhesive tape.
Live! Cam Optia does not require additional drivers and is ready to work as soon as it is connected to a computer. This, however, may not be good enough - the camera does not support VFW-i, but it is even higher, TWAIN-interface (required for connecting the camera to the camera graphics programs). In this rank, Live! Cam Optia works only with Windows Driver Model (WDM).
The camera is equipped with an indestructible lens from the ring for manual focusing. I guess, webcams, equipped with manual focusing, allow you to set the minimum distance to the object. Navit so, about the yak not to be found in the statements technical characteristics cameras. Tsya power sometimes allows you to look at the details that are inaccessible to the eye without a great deal. As a butt I will present a fragment of a five-copy coin, knowledge for help Live! Cam Optia at її minimum focal length:
Fragment of a penny coin
For connecting to a computer, the camera has a USB 2.0 interface. The maximum size of the video picture is 640x480 pixels with a speed of 30 fps. Tse allows you to broadcast the video smoothly, without visible smirks.
The package of delivery of the camera includes a cute little bag for carrying. In addition, in the packing box, the buyer will find a CD with proprietary software security, as well as headphone-drops, attached to a microphone clip, which can be attached to the jacket collar. Next mark that Live! Cam Optia cost practically twice as much for looking at Cam Video IM, but how much better can it display pictures? Let's evaluate it on our test images.
Creative Live! Cam Optia: ISO Resolution Chart
It is worth noting that in terms of the quality of the optical system Cam Optia is higher than Vista IM and Video IM cameras. To give respect, from the center to the edge of the tables, there is practically no drop in sharpness, all symbols are read well. There are also no geometric creations.
The transfer of colors is destroyed: blue and violet are ruined
Part of the color has a dark streak in cold colors, and the blue cap of the felt-tip pen may not look purple; color saturation here is greatly reduced. Is it possible to pay an additional twenty dollars to get a little extra money? Then let's marvel at the webcam, like the most expensive model in our eyes.
Creative Live! Cam Voice
Creative Live! Cam Voice in retail packaging
Camera Cam Voice tsіkavat tim, scho vbudovanі once two microphones, as if working under the control of proprietary technology Adaptive Array Microphone. Tsya authority allows you to recognize and see the negligence background noise to achieve the most pure voice transmission. Such a feature is the most corrosive when working with programs of audiovisual communication in the minds of advanced noise sharpening. Having offended the microphone on the frontal insert, the orientation of the camera lens directly proves that.
Two microphones in the middle of the camera
Tim is no less, for those who need private communication, the camera is supplied with a hand-free "hands-free" headset, which is made up of a headset and a microphone.
The camera takes life from the USB port (like, vtim, and I'll look at the webcam). At the lower part of the front panel of protection light indicator, which is illuminated by the chervonim under the hour of the robotic camera and the green light - under the hour of idle time. The activation of that initialization of the camera is either automatic - after the launch of the critical add-on, or manually - for the help of pushing a single button to the beast, which, in addition, also launches the critical program (WebCam Center).
Webcam Creative Live! Cam Voice - the most expensive camera of our look
The design of the fixed chamber allows you to comfortably install both on a flat surface and a vertical edge (LCD monitor, laptop covers). In the basis there is a hinge, which secures practically any straight lens.
The Cam Voice camera is equipped with a wide-angle lens (field of view 85 degrees) and a 1.3-megapixel CMOS-sensor, through which the real (physical) division of the camera becomes 1280x960 pixels, and interpolated, when static images are captured - 2560 However, here it’s worth noting that at the maximum value of the frame refresh rate, it’s impossible to increase more than 12 frames / sec, but it means that the smoothness of the movement will be spent later - the human eye can’t take the movement on the screen like a smooth one, and the frequency of the frames / sec. In the 640x480 split screen mode, the camera provides 30 frames per second.
The Smart Face Tracking function seems to be too rich, as it automatically detects the movement of the face (so, obviously, the wine does not go beyond the field of view of the lens) and scales more than a disguise, zastosovuyuchi chotirazovy program zbіlshennya.
Below are the signs, zrobleni on the physical allowance of the camera in three modes of operation. The ISO Resolution Chart test table allows us to understand how exactly the web-camera captures the most important details, as well as evaluate the quality of the optical system:
Refurbished more modes are installed in the settings of the camera - at the "Display Mode" section on the "Extended Settings" tab.
In the "Format" section, you can set the color space and the type of compression ("Color Space / Compression"), allow the image to be displayed ("Output size"), as well as the frame rate ("Frame rate").
Color transfer camera
Creative Live! Cam Voice, for an equal amount of high varsity, will ensure the transfer of the color with the minimum level of creation. The noise dampening system, which is victorious for seeing a moving audio stream, copes well with the burden on it. The camera may be more comfortable and superficially fixed, but it is practically spared a few.
Vlasnikov portable computers also did not pass: a number of specialized webcams from Creative are being promoted. In total, five items are available, but in our order, only two portable extensions of the series have been installed so far.
The main features of cameras for portable computers like standard ones are laptop mounts and the availability of such a camera for mounting on a table (so that such a camera can be put on a table rather than put). In addition, webcams for laptops have short USB cords, which do not exceed the length of the meter.
Creative WebCam Live! Ultra for Notebooks
Camera Live! Ultra for Notebooks is equipped with a CCD sensor.
Structurally, the web-camera is composed of two parts: a miniature rotary lens and a "base", in which all the electronic stuffing is attached. Before the laptop, the camera is fastened with a zippered clip. The rotation of the lens is allowed at the horizontal plane at the corner up to 180 degrees.
Just like that camera cam Voice, water Live! Ultra allows you to set three image review modes: Normal, Letterbox and Pan-Scan. Navodzhu znіmki, zroblenі on povnіy іnіy іnіyіy razdіlnіy zdatnostі (tobto 640x480) cameras Live! Ultra has three її modes of operation:
Normal mode - a wide hood with powerful youmu barrel-shaped creations,
ale with the maximum heating zone
Letterbox mode - zone of compression with a 3:2 ratio
Pan-Scan mode - zone of suffocation with 4:3 ratio of sides
The ISO Resolution Chart test table is shown, like a bachite, without significant geometric effects (except for the "Normal" mode, which camera lens probably knows to photographers "rib'yache oko"), with a good level of detail. Tse, obviously, to tell about the bad optical system of the webcam.
webcam live! Ultra for Notebooks: ISO Resolution Chart
A small sour in color transfer, de red color seems like a "carrot", you can not take it to respect. You can know what the Live! Ultra is better for other participants, I look around and see the color palette, which, perhaps, is the merit of the CCD-sensor.
Practically clear transfer of colors
Zagalom, in my opinion, WebCam Live! Ultra for Notebooks is a disgraceful add-on for portable computers. Skoda only, that the physical distribution of buildings is surrounded by 640x480 pixels.
Creative Live! Cam Notebook Pro
Creative Live! Cam Notebook Pro in retail packaging
Another webcam for computers is Cam Notebook Pro. Heads of attachments Pro may be aggravated, that this model is more serious, lower її front. We truly understand that the prefixes "Ultra" or "Pro" have long been beloved by marketers of any company, not only Creative, and far from always mean good technical characteristics of the device. The real state of speeches can only be recognized from the results of testing that rank of another variety.
On the vіdmіnu vіd vіd razglyanії kamera, given model equipped with a VGA CMOS sensor. The maximum division of the building is also bordered by 640x480 pixels, however, the refresh rate of the image at the given division of the building cannot be higher than 15 frames / sec, and the transmission of the video stream is required for assistance USB interface 1.1. I guess Live! Ultra refresh rate at this location can reach 30 fps.
Starry look Creative Live! Cam Notebook Pro
Due to its design, the camera allows wrapping the lens on the cut up to 270 degrees. In addition, when turning more lower by 90 degrees (at the top point), an automatic flip of the picture is shown, which is broadcast at the window.
The kit has a Live! Cam Notebooks Pro comes with a nice carrying case, a hands-free headset (one earpiece with a detachable microphone), a CD with a firmware installer, and a setup manual.
The lens of the Cam Notebook Pro is rather simple, it is folded with one lens, the focus is adjusted manually. On the quality of the robot, it put its own negative signs: to look at the ISO Resolution Chart, first, which falls into the vіchі - a significant sharpness in the center to the brim ("kalamutne eye"), as well as barrel-like geometric creation.
Creative Live! Cam Notebook Pro: ISO Resolution Chart
In terms of reliability, the transfer of colors - we also have є, with which to compare. See for yourself:
The color transfer is normal, but the transition between different colors is strongly staggered.
Behind the test images, you can add wisps, which ultra model anyway shorter Pro, And the prefix itself does not allow you to bury Creative Live! Cam Notebook Pro to "professional models", which would not mean the same word.
Software Creative
Most of the time, Creative webcams are supplied with unified software security. With the help of coristuvachev, it is possible to demonstrate a number of standard tasks, such as, for example, a video recording, the capture of single images, remote monitoring, a damage detector, and so on. And for the help of the Lapse Video function, you can organize the process of guarding the room growth - the program for working with pictures set interval, 3 of which, as a result, you can see a cicavi video sequence.
Start-up window for managing tasks
When we click on the control program, we see the start window, in which we can choose the task that will call us at the given moment.
The motion detection function ("Motion Detection") allows you to capture a webcam for security purposes: you will be able to capture images in the direction that you can see to the zone that is being protected. For this, it is necessary to point the camera lens at the place of the speed and vikonati simple adjustments in the driver.
Vіkno nalashtuvannya ruhіv detector
Nalashtuvannya dosit is simple. Here, like a bachite, there is a regulator of sensitivity, which determines the threshold for spratsovuvannya for the capture of the frame, as well as the installation of a guard for the surrounding area of the zone, which is controlled. The program can be adjusted as a storage of single frames, and recording of video fragments. All video information, as it was recorded without a vlasnik, can be transferred to you on e-mail or ftp server.
Vikno nalashtuvannya vіddalenogo monitoring
The function of remote monitoring (Remote Monitoring) allows you to set up an electronic camera for broadcasting four frames on the Internet through the tasks of an hour. In the "Remote Monitoring" tab, you can find the settings for the ftp server or the web site, as well as the settings for time intervals between frame captures.
TWAIN interface
These cameras, which have the power of the driver to support the TWAIN interface, allow you to transfer images without intermediary to third-party software distributors. For example, hoarding static frames can be saved for help Adobe Photoshop. True axis, in the end forward revision, like bachite, even though it’s not enough.
Live! Cam Console
Adjustment of the parameters of the webcam is set in the "Console" window. Here, as you can see from the screenshot, you can try out the webcam of the bad image. A set of basic functions can be adjusted from model to model, the proteo of the factory is Exposure (vitrimka), Brightness (brightness), Contrast (contrast) and Color (color saturation). In addition to the driver, the Backlight Compensation and Sharpness functions can be enabled.
At Cam Console you can add additional effects - at the "Advanced Video FX" distribution.
