Lookout with Video Cameras

[Dave LaPoint]

I am planning some projects where we are going to use Lookout 4 with remote
access over the internet.
We would like to be able to incorporate video capture into Lookout right
onto one of the Lookout control panels. I plan on using 4 or more cameras
that will be hooked to a switch box so that only one video signal at a time
is sent to the video capture card in the computer. Is this possible in
Lookout. If not then what is the best way to accomplish this. I.E. remote
viewing of video over the internet. I have some ideas but am interested in
hearing others.

Thank you!
Dave

Lookout panels does not support video. There are two ways of accomplishing
this task.
1) Use another software to get the video stream and look at it
seperately
outside Lookout environment.
2) We have LabVIEW for Industrial Automation software that supports video,
you can do pattern matching and a whole bunch of analysis. you can use the
LabVIEW for IA as an OPC server and Lookout as an OPC client and get the
data into Lookout.
