Using slingbox I connected a security cam and using the IR remote blaster I’ve created a pan tilt system that can be controlled remotely thru slingplayer’s remote control.

For the system I used:

Pan Tilt mechanism from www.servocity.com.

Two HiTech servo.

BS2 microcontroller  , IR detector and servopal from www.parallax.com.

Designed a circuit to control 2 relay to switch power for the servo and security cam.

I setup slingbox on the composite channel for Sony VCR plus . On the microcontroller , I wrote a program to read and interpret sony IR protocol and translated the inputs into servo movements.

The softwaqre nox can do manual or auto pan and tilt
