I am having a piece of computer software developed. It will control a camera connected to the server. The software controls functions such as pan, tilt, and zoom. The software will also have the capability of controling audio from the camera and an attached microphone (for live chat). The software will also be able to turn on and off the above listed items...

My question -- Is it possible to create a web application that can remotely access and run the software?

If so -- What programming language(s) should be used? Could this be done using ASP, Javascript, Flash (w/actionscripting)?

Please advise.

May want to consider having the application developed as a JAVA Applet that could then be accessed via a scripting language on the web page.

I'm thinking the server-side app will be created using CGI. The client-side app will be developed in Flash. Think this will work?

do you have the software that actually controls the camera? if so you will need to talk to that vendor to see what kind of specs you need to access the libraries.
