Also, from a prior note does not the ip camera include something to  direct
the  data somewhere?  The video analytic  idea might help, teach it to

My sense about ip cameras is that something  must control the camera.
Alvin's idea  about uploading footage to  an ftp  caught my attention
because  that process might be straight forward from a screen reader
standpoint.  I cannot monitor the footage, which is why I am hoping for a
notification process.
