Looks like none of the consumer-grade security cameras (Nest, Arvo, Ring, etc) support being able to embed the feed on a web page anymore. I think many of them never supported it, but looks like since Google bought Nest, they are slowly stripping features out of that one.
I’m looking to set up a security camera or two in a park-like area (it’s a parking lot and landing area for a freeflight club), and am looking for something that checks the following boxes:
- Ideally, a solution that doesn’t need an external computer (a full blown machine that’s running software that might have to be restarted by a human on-site; a self-contained hardware device or rack mounted solution that would start all necessary services up after a power outage or other failure would be fine).
- Video would be ideal, but if there’s something that would take snapshots every few seconds, that’s acceptable.
- Stream (or photos) would need to be publicly-accessible. A webpage embed would be ideal, but not something where a whole bunch of people have to use a dedicated mobile app to access it.
I looked at some of Unifi’s product offerings, but hard to tell if some combination of their cameras and routers would accomplish that. Anyone put something like this together recently and can recommend anything?
