Overview
For timelapses 1-3, I had multiple headaches dealing with the weak-sauce ribbon-cable Pi camera. I dumped it for a more hefty, webcam-style USB camera. Photo:
Timelapse 4 Plan
First, let's start with what we like, and what we've accomplished:
- Several things were accomplished with RaspberryPi/Timelapse3 (example: we were able to control the LED).
- Can resurrect idea bucket, continue working on the weatherproofing ideas, now that the bottleneck has been removed (better camera)
Plan for weatherproof camera mount:
- KISS
- Mount it, use the cap that came with it, put a rubber gasket around it to protect from rain further
- Don't worry about making it bomb-proof your first time. Just get the parts working in sync.
Hardware list:
