Usually if the camera connects directly to the computer (and not network/lan connected) it is the software that sets the frame rate. I do not know that any of them have a specific name for the camera since they all should have adjustible rates. The major difference for all the cameras is how fast or slow a frame rate the camera is capable of. As for the software to capture the images usually there is software of some type that comes with the camera. But if you want to (for example) have the camera accessible via the internet there is a nice piece of free software which I personally use - it is Yawcam (go to www.yawcam.com). It will continuous stream to the internet, has a scheduler, can also do motion frame captures, ftp captured frames to the internet and etc. And I think motion detection is more what you want in your situation. Yawcam could do it (the features putting to the internet and etc. do not have to be utilized). Now, as to frame rates, the higher the frame rate the more disk space will be needed. One camera I have takes about 1.5-2.5GB every 15 minutes at 6 frames a second to an .avi file.
