I am interested in starting an online live interactive cooking lesson series. I want to stream the lessons for 15 - 25 people using a video conferencing program (goto meeting, VeaMea, Cisco Webex...not sure which one yet) through our laptop.
I want to have two or three cameras running through my laptop that i can toggle through. One would be a wide shot of me and the kitchen. Another would be a close up of the cutting board to demonstrate cutting techniques and one camera mounted above the stove for when i am cooking. I want to be able to change cameras with a click of the mouse during the lesson and then be able to change back.
Can I hook up 2 or 3 cameras to my laptop (Intel core i3-380m with 6 gig ddr3) and accomplish what i want to do, or is there no way in heck that this little laptop is powerful enough? I am currently looking at high quality usb HD webcams.
Any help or guidance would be very much appreciated. If this is not the best forum and you know a better one, please advise. Thanks,
Willy
