[Motion-user] Remote webcams

[Yan S. <ya...@se...>]

I am working on a project with great public interest.  This is a
restoration project; we are taking an old industrial channel and restoring
it for fish habitat and recreational use.

Phase II will involve a lot of demolition of a dam and some other big
infrastructure.  We are considering installing several webcams to provide
a feed to the public on the progress of the work.

I've used motion quite a bit for my personal use and I know there's a lot
of expertise here, so I'm hoping that I can get some pointers for hardware
and sources.

What we need is this:

1.  Webcam/IPcam + embedded board that runs motion
2.  Solar panel to power it
3.  Outdoor enclosure, vandal proof
4.  Directional wifi antenna

Depending on price, we could use a few of these.

I can hack this together from a webcam, an access point, and
openwrt+motion, but we'd rather look at a pre-built solution, at least
initially.

If anyone on this list provides these services, please contact me off-list.
