Support for pseudo motion detection?

[fr3nch13]

So, I forked this to see if I could include a motion detection accessory in this package without any extra hardware (like the ir sensor).

I was thinking of doing it like so:

• Take a snapshot every second and save it to the hd like current.jpg.
• Take a snapshot 1 second later, move the current.jpg to past.jpg, and save this one to current.jpg
• Use ssdeep (fuzzy hashing) to hash both the current and past files.
• Use ssdeep to compare the hashes.
• If the files are more than config['sensative_setting'] different, than mark the motion sensor as triggered?

Would anyone be interested in this?

Yes, I would. Because then the motion trigger could activate lights or other actions.

Yes, I’d be interested!
