The Gadget: A wireless ecology arrangement alleged Vue that consists of one axial aperture and two tiny battery-powered wall-mountable wireless cameras. They're meant to let you adviser your abode from anywhere, as continued as you accept a arrangement connection.
The Price: $300 for two cameras and four alluring bank mounts
The Verdict: It works and it's easy. The three pieces are self-configuring, and all you charge to set it up is to bung the capital aperture into an Ethernet jack and the wireless cameras will all angle up seamlessly. Here's the video quality:
It's not bad, abnormally for a wireless video recording from such a baby camera. It's on par with a characterless webcam, and is absolutely acceptable abundant for a "security" cam. It's annihilation you ambition to use for absolute webcamming, but it's abundant for seeing whether or not your kids are accomplishing their homework.
There are a few added absorbing features, like video administration and video recording. Recording is obvious, but administration works by agreeable your accompany to appearance either reside streams or recorded clips. You and your accompany collaborate with the arrangement via the Vue website, which is attainable central or alfresco your network. The batteries are declared to endure a year (they're not rechargeable), but you can buy backup CR123 batteries. You about-face on recording from the interface and there is scheduling.
So is this account $300? Probably, depending on how abundant you charge something like this. There are cheaper solutions like hooking up a webcam yourself to a computer and somehow acquisition that online so you can admission it anywhere. This involves anchorage forwarding and all kinds of added abstruse workarounds. So for affluence of use, achievement and accessibility (it's wireless and alcove 300 feet), it's harder to exhausted the Vue. We alone ambition that, for $300, this would appear with four wireless cameras instead of just two. Available after this summer. [VueZone]
