Hey all. I'm looking for a wireless security camera, but not one just to monitor. Most cameras Im finding are for monitoring only. Where can I find a wireless camera that reads into your computer that records the video it takes. I looked up that x10 camera but Ive read very bad and some good reviews on it.
What do you guys think...
Thanks,
John

I have not done much with surveillance cameras lately, but not so long ago I was very much involved with a team that developed artificial intelligence computer software to assist with monitoring them. None of the cameras I worked with were wireless -- they were all fiber optic or coax.
In my development lab, we used a variety of cameras with a variety of different lenses. The fixed cameras were cheapest while the pan-tilt-zoom cameras were significantly more. That being said, some of the lenses we used with fixed cameras could exceed the price of some PTZ units.
The solutions available depend on what your budget is.
I will assume that you are interested in hobby solution, but will check back later to see if you have provided additional details.
For a hobby solution, you can buy a wireless webcam. The webcam will communicate with your home router/access point. Once it hits the router, you can route the video data wherever you want. The software that monitors your camera is the key to recording or monitoring. Once you find a software you like that is compatible with your camera protocol, you just set it up to record as desired. Of course this means your computer needs to be on whenever it should be recording and you don't want the power to go out for any component involved (your camera, computer, or router) without a backup supply.
Hope this helps.

what is a decent wireless ip camera?

I want to get a security camera, just one for now to watch the driveway of my house. I checked Amazon and eBay, there are so many camera I can't tell which is right for me. 420, 525, 36mm, etc I can't tell which one is important.
My problem: for the past few months deliveries from UPS were reported as having delivered (even those required signatures were just left unsigned) and when I checked, the packages are nowhere to be found. I am tired of filing complaint and waiting for replacement. I have no way of knowing if I have a dishonest delivery truck or if someone has been coming in and stealing after UPS leaves. Nothing like a stolen $1,000 camera lens that were supposed to be signed for (but never signed) to make someone at UPS HQ hopping mad.
I would like a camera that is able to use wireless network with WPK2 encryption or a plain wired ('d have to run a cable from router to outside), is outdoor friendly, and can be accessed from computer on network. What I plan is to use software that connects to the camera and record video if there's any movement. But I am open to suggestion as long as I can see the video and it can show what is going on in front of my house.
I do not want one that has overly wide angle, I'd like to see just the drive way from the under eaves of my house, not the whole world. Not too expensive, probably around $50. Two-way audio support is also not needed as I probably won't be at home if a crime occurs at my house. It'd have to be network capable as none of my computer has video capture hardware.
