CamServer 1.0.0.0

The first version of CamServer is out.

The CamServer application lets you turn your Android powered handset into a remote wireless camera that you can control with your computer's browser. You need to turn on your handset's Wi-Fi, and be connected to the same wireless network as your computer. You can take pictures in real time and display them directly on your computers browser. You simply connect to the address displayed on the handset's screen.
The CamServer application needs to run in the foreground for you to be able to connect to the phone and take pictures remotely, so remember to properly configure when your phone should go to sleep.

Here's an example of how to use the CamServer application.

  6. Take some pictures
  7. Return to the main menu
