IP cameras which are not expensive such as Tenvis, foscam, easyN and many others can enable remote control, and access the user interface by dynamic IP addresses though virtual mobile devices to adjust pan and tilt, resolution, area of objects and so on.

In order to access the IP camera video remotely on your mobile phone. You need to make both camera and wireless connected. Port forwarding enables the camera IP address invisible and still be accessible on the network.DDNS setting will allow you to view your pet cam by a dynamic IP address.There are many free Dynamic DNS services available to choose from.
