It is impossible for me to build a board that is 7 feet tall using hammer, saw, nails and everything else on my own. My father was the one who helped me out to build this peeping board until it is able to stand like the image above. Thank you so much daddy! After everything has done, my brother and I painted the board black in color.

No more monitor.

I've changed my mind on using the monitor to display the live visual from the webcams; instead of using monitor I'm going to use a 19" Flat screen TV because there will be 6 visuals on the screen so I think if I use a bigger screen, the visual will look bigger and clearer.

I have found a new software called 'iSpy'. It is free and can be used without limit because it is an open-source software. There will be no advertisement on the screen or time limit. So I will use this software for my project. Below is my progress on testing out the software using 3 webcams from different angle. However the angles might be different for my final. These only to show my rough idea of placing the webcams.

Types of webcams

WEBCAM 1 

WEBCAM 2

WEBCAM 3 - has 'Follow my face' feature.

Mr. Hafiz gave me a link and asked me to try a free software called 'VH Multicamera Studio'. I've downloaded it and tested it using few webcams. How ever, this software can't be viewed in fullscreen. Although the window can be maximized in many size, the toolbars will still be there. :(

Finalized measurement of the board for the peeping hole that will be placed between the spaces. (stalker's room and stalking space)
