Live stream capabilities

Hi,
I have an educational website and I would like to purchase cameras for live streaming our chicken coops. I would like the live stream/web cam to be available on my website for students and the public to view. I really like your Arlo Pro 3 cameras with their night vision capabilities. Does your software allow this sort of web cam usage? Thanks so much!

Unfortunately, no.

Thanks Stephen.
Do you know if the video can be downloaded, saved and then uploaded later? That could be an option with video clips.

You can manually download recordings and then make them available.

Honestly, I'm thinking Arlo isn't a great fit for what you are wanting to do though.

I think you would be better off looking for a powered camera that records continuously by design. A low-end Axis camera would do this. Nest cameras can also do this easily by sharing a link. I'm sure other powered cameras can also.
