      Hey,
      I am pretty new to this so I may ask a few dumb questions but here goes.
      I am interested in building an moving video camera platform with a hanheld wireless (802.11) 4 axis control.
      1. travel (say rack and pinion with rapid traverse and fine tuning)
      2. spin (geared vertical axis rotation)
      3. elevate (lead screw activated vertical axis un/down movement
      4. attitude (tilting the camera platform)
      Several other functions are remotely included on the camera (focus/autofocus, zoom, on/off, record).
      I would like to find a web based solution for monitoring the camera field of view...something like a small LCD viewer.
      I have a well equipped shop to build the hardware and have some design work completed.
      Is this an appropriate software?
      Thanks,
      thebruce

        I am reading and working toward it as I have time.

        As a newbie, I have a lot to learn.

        I have found a commercial software for many of the fundamental functions.

        Unfortunately I cannot locate (probably because it isn't there) a complete solution.

        Still quite interested.
