When a Geek goes hydro . . .

I just installed a Sony IP camera in my grow room. I can access the audio/video feed via my local wifi on my laptop, iPad or iPhone. When I'm away I can also access it over the Internet via my router from my iPad/iPhone.

The Sony has pan, tilt & zoom as well as audio. I can see my resevoir temp, room temp, humidity and also hear my pumps, fans and the sound of running water.

I replaced some cameras for a customers upgrade and she was nice enough to give me one of the cameras I had just replaced. They were used in a medical setting so it should still have a lot of life left. NOTHING LIKE A FREEBIE !!!

How convenient is this going to be for me to stay on top of my ladies? I work just a few minutes down the road and can come home when needed.

What are your thoughts? I'm on my ipad so I can't post pics. Maybe later!!!

lmao. Awesome Dro. I was actually just telling my lady that when I get my box up I was thinking of doing that very same thing. Funny how people think alike. +rep

now all you need is your lights on an actuater so you can move them from your laptop ect

Sounds like a sweet set up!

We have webcams at our grow as well only not on the grow,our cameras are looking at the streets outside the building,my partner owns an audio video store & hooked it all up.

hopefully your network is secure

Sweet man.. now u just needd one those of remote controled gatlin turrets on ur roof and ur all set

I have a camera as well, but I put it outside the door. Maybe I overlooked you being in a grow state or something, but personally, I would never stream video/pictures of anything like that over a wireless network. Especially making it reachable from the internet.
