This time, however, I used the Logitech QuickCam Pro 5000, which has abilities to operate well in all light levels.

Now the webcam captures a juicy, full-color image. It also features a wider field of vision and has other fancy features that I paid for but will never use. The YAWCAM software is used to drive the image, which is uploaded every 10 minutes every day.<\/p>\n<p>I have software to add another webcam to show inside my office.

But in the future I may enable another web cam and toss the image up on the PorchCam home page just for fun. When I do, I&#8217;ll let you know on the blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve replaced my webcam. The old one was nice, but designed primarily for indoor lighting.
