Webcam for dog?

I'm just curious if anyone has ever set up a webcam so that you can check on your pets when you're not home. If so, what type of equipment did you use? Did it work well? Am I insane for thinking about this?
 
I think this would only require 1 webcam really. One dog and one chinchilla, but the chin stays in his cage. 🙂

It would just give me a better piece of mind making sure they're ok a couple times a day.

College dorm plus Intel Create and Share Camera Pack = Great practical joke + Severe pwnage
 
I did ... webcam32 software lets you stream it over a webserver (I just used IIS). Was a cheap $20 webcam too.

All I saw my dog do was sleep. 😉 He didn't seem to like being locked up in my room all day so I didn't do it for long.

reminiscent of something martin gardner might think of.
 
Hm...webcams are only about $20.00 and the software looks like it would be easy to setup. Anyone else ever tried something like this?
 
what software did you have in mind ? LIke I said, webcam32 did the trick for me even though getting it to work with my router/firewall was a bit tricky.

The principle is pretty much the same.... a co-worker did it. the webcam only turn itself on when there's movement.

so pretty much we only get a shot of the empty couch until the dog actually jump onto the couch.

Are you sure it was working and not just displaying a static pic? 🙂
