Hey all.
Not sure if this even counts as a Picaxe project... but you guys are the ones to ask.
I have a customer with an NVR controlling their CCTV system. They have several unused POE ports on the back of the machine, which then leads to blank images on the main viewing screen (no combination of screens works to not show a blank input).
They have asked if its possible to make a small device that will pull their company logo or text off an SD card and simply display it on the spare channels. Nothing moving, a simple still image.
It must be possible.... but how?
Its going to need some kind of conversion to access the network. I also imagine it going to need to provide an ip address for the NVR to allocate it to a channel?
Not a simple project I fear, but interesting.
Maybe well outside the realms of a Picaxe however.
Any suggestions gratefully received!
