Amazon.com: Foscam FI8910W Wireless/Wired Pan & Tilt IP/Network Camera with IR-Cut Filter for True Color Images - 8 Meter Night Vision and 3.6mm Lens (67° Viewing Angle) - Black NEWEST MODEL: Camera & Photo
My wife and I were trying to figure out a way to talk to the kids when downstairs or upstairs without yelling at the top of our lungs. We have three stories with a basement and let's just say that when Sonya and I are in the basement at night, the kids aren't always obedient to the letter of the law: thou shall not play upstairs.
Anyway, I was getting a little weary of hearing feet upstairs and having to walk up two flights of stairs so I bought this camera.
It has a lot of pretty cool uses. You can log into it from any website to look at the camera (provided you have your router to accept traffic from outside your home). I have an iPhone/iPad app that lets me look in on the home and pan and tilt the camera over 3G. I showed it to a cousin who owns a restaurant and he wants one to look in on his property. It has motion detection, ability to record video, etc and you can set it all up to have multiple cameras in multiple locations.
Anyway, love this thing. Kids actually think its kind of cool we can talk to them through the camera and hear them running around. The IR feature helps me see into their rooms and who is running around. Since the baby's room is up there too we use it as a baby monitor. Way cheaper than any video baby monitor would be and it has so many other features. I'll probably end up getting one for each floor.
When it first came in, I set it up and then, from work, started talking to my kids from my phone.
