lelandg / Raspberry-Pi-Security-Camera

This project requires custom hardware. Schematics are included as a Fritzing file. Uses ePIR to detect motion. Emails a list of people when detected. Also is a Linphone server, so you can simultaneously connect to the camera for a live picture! (Right now is one-way on the Pi.)

This should be possible using the OpenCV library. It will work fine as-is for a security camera (obviously) but the only thing is the range of the PIR sensor is about 30-40 ft, officially, though I've found it to be much greater... still, it would be nice to use OpenCV to calculate a running average of all images and start recording (time lapse) when motion is detected.
