On this page you can see both live and recorded views from
the Wessels Living History Farm. You can even control the
camera
on the
roof
of the barn.
|
Here's how to control the camera: First,
when this page loaded, you should see live video in your
Java browser. Click the "Start
Control" button. You will either be given
control right away or, if others are already in control,
be placed in the queue. If the box above the button turns
green, you're in control and the box
will tell you how much time you have left. If you get
the heads icon, it means that you're on the waiting list
and the numbers tell you how much time until you're in
control.

To control what you're looking
at, you click within the picture itself. Click on the
right side of the picture, and the camera will move
right. Or you can use the scroll bars on the side and
bottom to control the pan or tilt. To control the zoom
range of the camera, use the scroll bar to the far
right. The single tree icon means that you're zoomed
IN all the way. The three trees means you're zoomed
out or shooting with a wide angle lens. |
