Comment on Project SkyWatch (a.k.a. Wescam at Home)

Comments

This is a great project and I'd use it immediately, but I'm heavily invested in ONVIF devices and have no VISCA-based cameras. Plus, I'm betting that most VISCA devices aren't weatherproof. I know that VISCA has the very nice feature of reporting back current x/y/z parameters, but that can be semi-spoofed with ONVIF by using a grid of presets and then "guessing" based on commands issued. Is that out of the question as a feature for this project? There is a massive installed base of ONVIF devices that could immediately be pulled into use.
