  • pikrellcam

    Raspberry Pi motion vector detection program with OSD web interface.

  • That's been a dream of mine for a long time. I don't think there's anything quite like we want just yet.

    However, there is a super cool open source project from the author of GKrellM (remember that from the ancient days of Linux?). He's using the Pi's built-in hardware video coder to get high quality motion detection very cheaply. The basic idea seems to be, when the encoder produced a lot of bits, there must have been some motion in the frame.

  • frigate

  • > open-source . . . home security camera solution

    I deeply reject your premise, as an invalid start. you have qualified this from the start as a solution, which is, to me, against the best premise that most aids open source, our best nature, "small pieces, loosely coupled."

    the best piece of open source home security cameras that I've seen is Frigate.
