Thats a lot of cameras you could buy right there. I was figuring around 100 for a medium sized store. (40 ft isles, 12 of them, 2 cameras every 10 feet). How much is a little wifi camera that can send back a few images per minute?

I was discussing cameras with someone who derives a non-negligible portion of their income from streaming 4k video. The "gold standard" as far as they are concerned is a $60 Logitech webcam. Swap out the cord for a wifi chip, swap out the consumer housing for something that clips to a shelf and can be secured with a self tapping screw and power it with a cheap solar panel and I still can't see it coming in above $100.
