One should add that the similar term Webcam, initially simply intended as a camera connected to the web (The World Wide Web or www.) is now used to mean also different things having nothing to do with Home Surveillance. One is the increasing use of cameras installed in public places all over the world, like on top of famous mountain or volcanoes, renowned squares or defined pedestrian crossings in main cities. These are transmitting over the Internet, a continuous stream of images, taken at short time intervals, that give an idea of the current views from the selected place.
