Do you feel a Conveyor Belt monitoring software viz app on Smartphone or Desktop application can be designed and developed which may be useful for product tracking purposes?

Features regarding monitoring of the load, input regarding the load taken for transit and output regarding successful working of the conveyor belt in completing the task with different statues.

Thanks & Regards,

I made something similar for company owned by Arcelor Mittal. Single IR camera (worth $3k each) is monitoring single workplace (with liquid metal), it is connected to mini PC computer (something like Mini Mac, but with Windows installed). There is entire network of such setups in the hall. Software installed on mini-PC is taking screen-shot every second, resizing it to smaller resolution, compressing it, and sending through LAN to central computer, where is control application which joins the all camera screen-shots together on single screen to view by human administrator. Display is refreshed every second.

There are existing such applications. How is that different from e.g. video conference.. ? One smartphone/tablet is recording video from front, back or both cameras, and sending through Internet, to yet another smartphone/desktop/FTP server..

Your application would have to be special with unique features for specific client, to be worthwhile purchase..

ps. Don't waste time on asking these "questions". Better buy C/C++, Java, PHP, Perl, Python books, read them, and learn programming.. During reading and learning you will see what is feasible to be done.
