Netbotz 355 streaming Protocol

[MANOOP]

Hello,

I would like to know what protocols are using to the Netbotz 355 for video streaming and is it possible that can we integrate with other VMS?

Thanks

Hi @MANOOP 

Although I can't really help you integrate with another system, I can tell you that the communications between NetBotz and DCE is simply http/https. Pulling the current image would be something like this:

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/images/nbOwlEnc_0_CAMERA/VGA/campic.jpg 

nbOwlEnc_0 references the main camera on any NetBotz appliance and if an appliance has more than one, they would increment. I believe the VGA refers to the different resolutions as shown here:

/XVGA/ is 1280x1024
/EVGA/ is 1024x768
/SVGA/ is 800x600
/VGA/ is 640x480
/QVGA/ is 320x240
/QQVGA/ is 160x120

If you need login, I believe the proper URL would be http://user:password@<IP_address>/images/nbOwlEnc_0_CAMERA/VGA/campic.jpg

Thanks,

Steve

Hi @stallings43 ,

The only NetBotz that officially support the 165 camera pod are the NetBotz Rack monitor 750 and wall 755.

Older units like the 570 and 450 did support onvif cameras but have never been tested with the camera pod 165 and due to the discontinuation of the version 3 NetBotz appliances, this will not be officially tested. Please note that there is no motion detection option on the version 3 appliances with an onvif camera.
