Well, this is one of my favorite upgrades, super simple using AtHome Camera app, an old iPod touch (could use any old iOS and Android phone I would think) and now can remotely monitor my X-Carve, with sound and video. I know other people have used Raspberry Pis or IP Cameras, but this seemed like the easiest and cheapest solution for what I had handy! Quality isn’t fantastic but covers what I need!
Works great so instead of sitting in the cold garage, I can sit at my desk and work on other designs or homework, or whatever else and still keep tabs on things!
I’m confident enough in my programming I don’t feel the need for that. If I wasn’t I wouldn’t leave the room… But it would be easy to setup a VNC server or similar to allow remote access to the desktop at least if one was that concerned.
I downloaded the app onto 2 devices (I assumed one for streaming and one for monitoring). But I cannot seem to get past the “scan QR code” part. Am I missing something on the setup?
