@jpmoriartyApr 16.2003 — i think most webcams come with their own software for providing live streams etc, given as it's a pretty common function.

The main thing you would need is an always on connection to the internet so that the pictures can be uploaded every 5 seconds (or more frequently if that's what you want): the only way for that to happen is for the web cam to have permanent access to the internet.

@jpmoriartyApr 16.2003 — well as i say virtually every web cam will come with software to set up a video host (which is what you'll need) - give it access to the web and then you can program a link to that host so that people could log on to it. It's a fairly common feature, just check the back of the box when you buy your webcam

Success!
