callum hayShare
We’re thrilled to announce that all existing Farmstream 4G cameras using a Farmstream SIM can now livestream directly to your website. Whether you’re overseeing a construction site in London, showcasing animal welfare on a farm in Devon, or promoting an eco-tourism project in the Highlands, real-time video is an unbeatable way to capture attention, build trust, and highlight what makes your work unique.
Why Livestream with a 4G Camera?
- Showcase your business or project in real time — perfect for marketing updates and stakeholder engagement.
- Build customer trust — transparency boosts credibility and encourages faster purchasing decisions.
- Share your unique story — a live window into daily operations sets you apart from competitors.
- Stream from anywhere — no fixed broadband required; if there’s 4G signal, there’s a live feed.
In short, 4G camera live-streaming turns day-to-day activities into engaging content that keeps visitors on your site for longer and drives conversions.
💡 How the Livestream Works
- Continuous connectivity: Your camera sends high-quality video over the mobile network via its Farmstream SIM.
- Smart scheduling: By default, the livestream shows a 30-second window refreshed every hour. We can tailor custom durations, specific time slots, or selected days of the week on request.
- Lightweight integration: We supply a short HTML snippet; copy and paste it into any page (WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, or a custom site) and your live feed appears instantly.
- Optimised data: The Heavy Streaming plan provides the additional allowance required for smooth, uninterrupted video and covers all service overheads.
📋 Minimum Requirements
- At least one Farmstream 4G camera (existing units work out of the box).
- An active Farmstream Heavy Streaming plan — ensuring you have enough data for continuous streaming.
- A website where you can paste HTML code.
