We just brought my 2 year old son home From the Hospital for Sick children and I need to be able to monitor my child while he's sleeping to make sure he doesn't sleep on his back. I am trying to avoid having to sit in his room while I monitor him as I'm sure to wake him up. I bought a low light web cam to monitor him and have it hooked up to a laptop that I've put in his room. I wirelessly connect to the router I have in my house. I am using Microsoft Windows Messenger, but the screen is so small in Microsoft Messenger that it's not really an option. The camera I bought was this one: http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/multimedia/mut/pro_mut_detail.php?UID=604
So what I am looking for is some software that allows a chat to occur in a 640x480 window... does such an application exist? Is there something else I can use to achieve the same thing?
