Open CV % Raspberry Pi security camera

Last crawled date: 5 years, 4 months ago

This camera contraption is supposed to be attached to a window sill. It consists of a Raspberry pi 3B+ and a Adafruit Trinket M0. The Raspberry pi is used for video processing with OpenCV, a Raspberry pi camera 2.1 is used for providing the video stream. I incorporated a Adafruit Trinket M0 because it supports hardware PWM, the Raspberry Pi does not which results in noisy and unsteady servo control. The Trinket M0 communicaties with the Raspberry Pi over serial uart. This project is still under construction on the software side of things, development is done using Visual Studio Code and (circuit) Python. When this project is finished I will make the source code publically available on gitbhub.
