Breaking NEWS --- Now testing the HQ Gotcha! (non-wireless model). Visit or Join our new Facebook page "Gotchacam.biz" for HQ Gotcha! test photos and video clips updated daily. Watch on this site for the first published photos of the new HQ Gotcha! camera. We added a photo album with experimental Gotcha! cam applications.
We are also developing Gotcha! mobile software for Android smartphones and a new recording software for Apple Leopard and Snow Leopard. Compatibility testing for Apple iPad is complete!
An additional new model indoor wireless Gotcha! camera will soon be available that has Seven additional features! "HQ WPS wireless Gotcha!"
1) Wi-Fi Protected Set up (WPS). A WPS button on this new camera will allow you to easily and securely connect to WPS supported wireless routers without entering SSID or passwords. Simple press the WPS button on the WPS wifi router and press the WPS button on the indoor wireless Gotcha! camera. The camera is automatically and securely connected to the internet with WPA wireless security.
2) A new megapixel image sensor has been included for high resolution images up to WXGA = 1280 x 800 pixels = 1,024,000 pixels compared to 307,200 pixels with VGA. This is over three times the resolution at up to 30 Images per second. We recommend using the VGA setting with the HQ Gotcha! camera for superior images on fast networks and high speed routers and monitors. Imagine the superior HQ quality of a megapixel sensor on a VGA camera?
3) We have added a built-in MicroSD memory card slot to add up to 16 GB of video recording. The MicroSD memory is user supplied.
4) h.264 CODEC (MPEG4 subpart 10): in order to handle the increase in data due to the Megapixel sensor, we have incorporated the h.264 codec so that video streaming will continue to have a high image rate as well as minimize video storage recordiing requirements. Baseline profile level 3.1 (ISO/IEC 14496-10)
5) New progressive CMOS sensor. The video has no artifacts because of interlaced video. This video artifact can be observed with rapidly moving subjects such as motor vehicles.
6) Faster Wi-fi speeds with new IEEE 802.11n 6-300Mbps high speed. It is backward compatible to IEEE 802.11 b/g Wi-fi.
7) New improved color rendition- the color saturation is less, producing a more pleasing palette of colors than most cctv cameras.
