New Camera will be up soon
The new camera which was made possible by private donations from all over the world. This cam project is intended for beach migration researchers ( a continuation of my fathers research), oceanographers , weather watchers, beach lovers, and the outdoorsman.

The Biscuit is a hi-resolution digital camera system used to take pictures, archive them, and upload them to the Internet. Designed for construction and environmental monitoring and documentation, the Biscuit has a number of features and characteristics not found in most other Web Cam systems. Photo quality images are created using the Canon G9 – 12 MP, 6X optical zoom, as well as automatic creation of time lapse movies, automatic slideshow creation and software routines for scheduling, image correction, and scientific analysis. A second camera is included in the system, Sony Block Camera Model IX11A. This provides live video viewing and the source for some of the specialized routines listed below.

Streaming JPEG Sequences: The software handling the video signals can stream any of its video lines out to a browser or our dedicated application running under Windows. Streaming rates are usually limited by the bandwidth available. In a local LAN situation, streaming speeds depend on the processor power: typically on a 500MHz machine, streaming at 30fps is possible at 320x240, and 12 fps at 640x480.
Image Averaging and Variance Computations: Image averaging and variance images are computed in real time by accumulating the pixel values of each frame, and accumulating the square of each value for the variance calculation. This is done at typical frame rates of 5 per second
Pixel Data Extraction and Time Stack Creation: Up to 4096 points can be extracted from the video images in real time at rates up to 15 frames per second. Pixel data extraction can continue for over an hour, and at the end of the sampling period, a time stack plot is created from the data in the for of a bmp file. Embedded in this file is the time of each sample and the coordinates of the points extracted. A utility program provided by EVS allows a text file to be created from the bmp file which contains all the data in a form that can be easily imported into Mat Lab
ARGUS File Format Support: ARGUS is a world-wide beach monitoring network developed and operated by the Coastal Imaging Laboratory (CIL) at Oregon State University, U.S.A Snap, timex, variance and time stack images can be saved and uploaded following the ARGUS format so you can use their software directly on the uploaded imagery.
