Essential Info

You gotta love pan/tilt IP cameras. Not only can you check on your home over the Web, you can even remotely change the camera angle — all without a PC at the camera site! The only problem is that cameras like these usually cost $400 or more ... until we came across the Veo Observer line of cameras that starts at just under $300!

Capture Video and Audio
With Veo Observer IP cameras, you can now keep track of your loved ones, belongings or business from anywhere in the world you can access the Web. The cameras capture audio/video clips and digital snapshots. Live audio can be captured via internal or external microphones. These feature-rich cameras allow for built-in tilt and pan control from remote locations and can be set to automatically send e-mail alerts with attached snapshots when motion is detected via an external motion sensor (sold separately). CCD sensors ensure good quality images to be captured, even in low light.

Easy Connection and Access
These high-quality cameras are Ethernet-ready, easy to set up and access in minutes, enabling real-time video and image capturing. Just plug one into any Ethernet connection, and you're ready to see and hear what's happening when you're not there! Accessing the cameras is as simple as surfing the Web. Just point your browser to the cameras' onboard home page. You'll find everything you need to view, listen to, and control the camera from anywhere on your network or even over the Internet for total peace of mind when you're away. Manufacturer's part number V700000.

Now Available in a Wireless Version
Break free from the constraints of wires with a camera with the WiFi-ready Wireless Veo Observer (#7539W) that sends signals to any WiFi 802.11b wireless access point. The only wire needed is the one connecting the camera to a power outlet! Manufacturer's part number V710000.

Includes Software
Each Observer camera comes with all the software you need to keep track of loved ones and belongings from anywhere, any time. With the software, you'll be able to control the camera's pan/tilt features, so you can keep your eye on the action. You can even save and e-mail images — great for sending pictures of the baby to grandma and grandpa.

Expandable for a Complete Whole-House Observation System
Want a system that monitors more than one room? No problem! The Veo Observer system is expandable to four total cameras (hardwired or wireless). A split screen allows you to monitor the cameras simultaneously. The software keeps a list of your cameras and lets you view full-screen versions of any camera with a single click.

Other features include:
  • Built-in web server that allows access by standard Internet browser
  • LCD IP address display to make setup and access quick and easy
  • Motion sensor attachment to trigger e-mail alerts (Using optional accessory #7539PIR, sold below.)

Jim M -- Dubuque IA   11/18/2004
I purchased one for my place of business so that I can work from home and keep an eye on my resteraunt after we had our third child. I have since then baught two others and they are a sinch to set up and work great!! I cant say enough about these web based cameras.. Jim M Dubuque Iowa Also I had to may a call into their support as I had some issues and they were very helpful.. Again great product and the support to back it up.
ROSS -- mountain view, CA   10/8/2004
It works, but don't get it for use with a pan-tilt camera because it mounts to the stationary part of the camera, so it won't pickup motion in the right place.
FELIX -- madrid, XX   9/14/2004

ROBERT M -- alcoa, TN   7/2/2004
I have both dlink and veo cams... thisveo cam is much better
CHI CHEUK -- calgary, AB   4/12/2004
I'm very happy with this web camera. It only took me five minutes to set it up in my home intranet. The video quality is much better than I'd expect for a $200 web cam. And the web interface is user friendly. Without even reading the manuel and any supervision my 7-year-old can start controlling the pan and tilt. But I haven't tried accessing it from external internet connection.
KEVIN -- dagenham, XX   3/16/2004
This product worked right away, i only had it out of the box about 5 mins and it was up and running, i ran to my friends house and logged on the net, and started to pan /tilt the camera over the net without any problems at all. this camera is the muts nuts, the only improvment would be an optical zoom and not digital. 10 /10
Kevin in the UK -- UK London England   3/4/2004
WoW!! it took just 3 days for the wireless camera to arrive here in the UK, within 5 mins of ripping the box open,I was panning and tilting via the internet from a friends house, it was so easy to set up. I can highly recomend this camera for your wireless home network, as we say in the Uk ITS THE MUTS NUTS
NEAL -- harpers ferry, WV   2/15/2004
I just can't believe the quality, versitility and ease of installation of this device. The price makes it affordable for any home owner. I would like to see some (4) camera position pre-sets on the software control panel
LUIS -- south ozone park, NY   12/12/2003
Works great for my needs, remote home observation via internet!
JOHN -- fareham, XX   10/23/2003
Most impressed that you could ship an item to the UK in less time than our mail service can deliver locally.
ANDREAS -- toronto, ON   10/18/2003
Returned. Only usable with Windows computer, I have only Mac.
LAWRENCE -- lake bluff, IL   10/12/2003
This item works well for now. The movement is jerky and the camera refresh rate is slower than I had hoped. For the price, this is a good deal.
CARL -- wharton, NJ   10/6/2003
This would be a much better product if it's firmware/software were not so narrowly focused. It is clearly not as functional as it could be if it did not require Internet Explorer as the only browser supported!
