I'm building a web-based remote control for a webcam.

The current project is based on Atmel AVR microcontroller, which is connected to a Slackware server.
On SourceForge you can find more information about it:
Open WebServo (http://sourceforge.net/projects/openwebservo)

However I'm considering to make a FOX board version, in order to eliminate the external circuit needed to drive the servo-motors.

The FOX board is a Linux embedded system, developed by Acme Systems (http://www.acmesystems.it/)

If you want to have a look at a live demo of the current product, you can visit my server here:

If you like it and want to join this project, you are welcome.
Let me know.

Best regards,
Giovanni

...nevermind

If someone is interested to have a web-controlled webcam, please let me know.

I can build and sell the hardware for you.

Best regards,
Giovanni

In order to easily utilize the web-controlled webcam, I developed the following two widgets:
- Opera: http://widgets.opera.com/widget/6455
- Yahoo: http://widgets.yahoo.com/gallery/view.php?widget=41802

Hi I'm actually interested in building a Linux based webservo machine for controlling a webcam (among other things). I would also like to turn of ligths etc. In what way could you help me?

Actually, I have already made those applications, both hardware and software.

In addition to moving a webcam via web, here you can see the following online demos:
- turning on/off a lamp: http://dimingo.homelinux.com:8080/zsocket/
- accessing a temperature sensor: http://dimingo.homelinux.com:8080/sod/

Recently I'm developing my new hardware using the ZigBee wireless technology for communications between the server and the devices.

If you like, you can join the zAutomation project on SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/zautomation

In this moment on SourceForge there are not so much info, because I had no time to upload it yet. However I already developed two working prototypes.

a bit on the same way with robot and a webcam on it:

I would be too interested by a server that has voicerecognition, check the temperature, has motion robot camera (self-reloadable on powersuppluy), and control of the lights... that's too much work alone and not that much person are much interested for fast developments.

possible !

Here is my robot with remote control through internet + ZigBee:

The robot is not completed yet. The wifi camera is still missing, but the pan/tilt device is already up and running.

I'm controlling the robot using a web application to reach the robot server and then using ZigBee for communications between the robot server and the robot.
