Periscope Pro For Mac

Periscope Pro is a minimalist macOS application that uses the built in microphone and iSight camera to transform your computer into a surveillance tool.

It should also be noted that the Periscope Pro application is also designed to work with USB connected devices, or with IP cameras.

Finding your way around the Periscope Pro main window is quite easy: the top area displays the video feed, while on the bottom you can make the necessary adjustments.

The Periscope Pro app allows you to specify the video and audio devices you want to employ, but you can also choose the surveillance mode: continuous, motion detection, audio detection, or motion and audio detection.

Unfortunately, once you access the option panels, you cannot go back to the start panel to actually start the surveillance process. To workaround this issue, you must make the necessary adjustments, and then relaunch the app to go back to the start panel.

Depending on your settings, Periscope Pro makes multiple recordings, and you get to review their content without having to use a third party video player. In the Library area you can easily playback the videos, remove the ones you don’t need, or visualize the files in a Finder window.

Via the Periscope Pro Preferences window you can easily reduce the clip resolution or the frames per second value in order to reduce the videos size. Moreover, you have the option to change the recording output location, and even choose to upload them to your Dropbox folder.

Periscope Pro makes use of your built-in camera and microphone in order to detect movement around your computer and record videos capturing the activity. The Periscope Pro app also works with USB connected devices or IP cameras.

To conclude, if you need to monitor a specific area in your home or business location without having to deal with complex surveillance systems, Periscope Pro certainly deserves a try.
