Is there any plan to add a webcam widget to the widget library (that is, a widget allowing to see webcam images, live streaming, etc...) ?
I have seen this question posted in the forum previously denying the answers this possibility. The explanation for not doing it was the lack of processing power of the Arduino, but other CPUs with more processing capacity can be used on the Arduino cloud (e.g. ESP32)...
Good point!
An ipcam/ webstream widget would be extreamly nice in the dashboard. Then we can see what is going on arround our Arduino.
The board does not have to process anything, when the cam has it't own network connectivity.
e.g. a webcam in our greenhouse, rc-robots eyes, entrance, etc, just to see "from our arduino's Eyes."
It can help us in the dashboard to make desisions before pushing a button, eg with the PLC's, before opening door's and valves or whatever,
" The board does not have to process anything, when the cam has it't own network connectivity."
This is a good point !
