Security Made Easy y

ONE OF THE FIRST HARDWARE add-ons d-ons for the Raspberry Pi was a camera. mera. Indeed, there’s even a special header der on the board for such a device, so you ou can hook it up without blocking any of f your GPIO pins. The second-generation sensor, nsor available in both regular or infrared flavors for $25, can take 8MP snaps or stream 1080p video at 30fps, and is supported by plenty of software within the Raspbian ecosystem. Add in a bunch of IoT motion detectors and door switches, and you can (with a little effort) build your own home security system that you can monitor from your smartphone. The PrivateEyePi project has everything you need to get started. http://projects.privateeyepi.com
