Revision as of 08:13, 26 July 2016

Pi thing:

  • start with cameras
  • add some weather sensors - light, temperature, pressure, rain
  • add a web sdr radio antenna sensor - record anomolous VHF spetra in specific ranges during the day
  • web interface for displaying latest photo
  • motors and motor control - but possibly on another pi

Hardware required:

  • Raspberry Pi and enclosure
  • Camera and enclosure
  • Microphone

Camera options:

  • Microcamera USB with enclosure (on order)
  • GoPro USB power with enclosure (on order)
  • Android USB with enclosure (?)

Microcamera USB:

  • This is optimal option, if enclosure is maneuverable.
  • If not, alternative enclosure options can be printed/fashioned from acrylic.

GoPro:

  • Another great option, but space inside weatherproof enclosure makes data transfer difficult/impossible.
  • Makes for no-go with obtaining live data feed.
  • Still useful for long-term fixed time lapses with GoPro

Android

  • Not sure about this option - but some of these sensors have to be useful/available?

Microphone options:

  • Android is probably best here...
  • Can't be a difficult or expensive technology - microphones aren't that uncommon...


Hardware Status Check:

  • Raspberry Pi 3 plain board (CHECK)
  • Raspberry Pi 3 enclosure (CHECK)
  • USB hookup to camera (ON ORDER)
  • Camera weatherproof enclosure (ON ORDER)
  • GoPro power cable (ON ORDER)
  • GoPro data cable (POSSIBLE ROADBLOCK)
  • Android (?)


Security:

  • VPN only
  • Use OpenVPN to create a VPN between myself (e.g. 10.198.1.1) and that computer (10.198.1.2)
  • Then see the latest by opening the browser to http://10.198.1.2/
