Web App Access to Camera

[sbatson]

It would be really handy to be able to monitor and or control the camera from a Web App. A web app would let it work an any computer and a Browser window could be left on the screen to monitor the camera alerts instead of needing to remove hands from the keyboard and continuously reach for the phone.

Others have requested this feature as well. I’m not saying it won’t be added, just probably not in the near future. The Blink team is small and they have to prioritize features released. The Blink team is well aware of this feature request, but there are other features that will be implemented before we see a web browser.

Yup, if you search for keywords like web or browser, this has been discussed for months.

@xotech has a solution thats apparently pretty reliable though, since it’s used in some kind of industrial setting.

As marktheknife pointed out, there is a viable web based option now.
I have tried it. It works, but a web based option from Blink could be much better.

Can we make our own web interface using the project from github? https://github.com/MattTW/BlinkMonitorProtocol
