Description
Introduction
Foscam Multi-View allows the user to configure up to 4 foscam cameras to be controlled and viewable through a single web interface. Tabs allow the user to switch between the multi view where a camera can be clicked to view the image in full resolution and also control the camera. The interface binds to the keyboard controls allowing the camera to be operated using the Directional Pad or the familiar gamer WASD controls. Options such as the resolution, brightness, contrast, ir mode, etc can be manipulated from the left hand panel with many options also bound to further keyboard keys.
