What Can the TrackerCam Do?

Remote Control – Connect to your TrackerCam over the web and make it pan, tilt, and zoom to see what you want with simple mouse-clicks or voice commands. Works with any webcam.

Digital Zoom – Scale the camera image from 10% to 300% to get a full view or close-up view using an ordinary webcam - takes advantage of high resolution webcams too.

Surveillance – Set your TrackerCam to scan a room or area in a simple or complex pattern exactly as you specify. Useful for monitoring banks, lobbies, workshop, parking lot, daycare, workrooms, etc.

Motion Tracking – The TrackerCam is tuned to track all human skin tones and can automatically pan and tilt to track the nearest person as they move around. Quality of tracking depends on quality of webcam.

Video Capture – Set your TrackerCam to capture video from its input to your computer. Make your own home movies!

Remote Monitoring – With our surveillance, motion detection, tracking, and remote control features, the TrackerCam can monitor an entire room by detecting, tracking and recording movement. From anywhere in the world, use your web browser to view a history of the movement captured by your TrackerCam!

What Do these Functions Give You?

Freedom – With our person-tracking feature, you will no longer be confined to a fixed spot when video conferencing with your family, friends, and business associates. The TrackerCam automatically pans and tilts to keep you centered in the picture as you move around.

Flexibility – The TrackerPod’s ultra-wide range of movement lets your camera point anywhere instantly without clumsy manual positioning or propping. With our point-and-click positioning feature, you can center subjects in the picture just by clicking on them. Or, with our mouse-tracking feature, you can pan and tilt anywhere by simply dragging your mouse around.

Improved Video-Conferencing – Using our specially designed software, we can help you get rid of the choppy, broken images normally associated with current video conferencing software.

Ease of Use – Our well-designed user interface lets you track movement, record videos, capture and upload regular or panoramic images with a simple click of a mouse or voice commands!

Compatibility – The TrackerCam works with your standard USB pc-cam (such as Logitech QuickCam® or Creative® WebCam) and is compatible with whatever video conferencing software you are currently using.
