A camera bad guys can't see captures evidence, one they can see, in bright flashy colors captures evidence AND deters crime. If they know they're on camera, there's a chance they'll move on. Food for thought.
This is one of the best explanatory videos on this topic I have seen. Even with the terrible background musac. Please make more videos. This is great work.
With how difficult it is to get ahold of a Pi Zero at times, I think a normal Pi 3 would do fine. You could also use multiple webcams with it, with less choppy frames.
I just came across your channel and love the content so far! I found that the backing music was a bit hard to listen to. Good stuff though, thanks for taking the time to upload these awesome projects!
Outstanding tutorial video. Perfect for monitoring my wild bird feeder and running opencv against identifying the birds. Also helpful to help with identifying what animals visit my garden. I know a fox keeps playing with our rubber garden shoes, as they are not by the door each morning and have teeth marks all over them lol but never managed to video it happening. Thanks.
Very helpful explanation, thanks. Beginers can practice. But i find that raspberry power is very poor to make really "life" video surveillance system. Freezing on low fps is really sad... Maybe it is good for someone (3-5 fps) but not for me... So i can't say that all this is perfect... Even not good... And if compare to low cost ip cameras - this solution is not so cheap. It is very simple to find and buy ip camera (POE-powered) from 20$ and it will provide two streams (main with full quality for recordinf and extra for real-time life view) so, raspberry it is only like a toy to practice in iot and integration.
Really cool tutorial, so many ideas. I installed a CCTV system (industrial looking beast) but next place tempted to go down this route as more flexible and lower power. Frame rate a bit low but where needed higher, like for entrance, could use bigger pi. Think most improvements would be from printing custom cases, maybe spread the electronics out (with heat sinks) as well. Could have pi and camera in separate housing joined with that long cable. Embedded LED and sensor would be cool but power hungry.
I think it supports higher framerates you just need to set it up. I set my raspberry pi 2 to 20 fps and works perfectly fine. By default the settings are very conservative to conserve disk space and bandwidth.
It is really cool to see other software that people are using with their RasPi Zero Camera Setups. I have been using mostly RPi_Cam_Web_Interface and I wonder what the quality differences would be between the two systems.
Great project, got a little bit lost when you added a hub because I couldn’t see it plugged in to anything. But I think I will have a go and it might become clearer.
You asked for suggestions. I did a similar project with a regular pi. Same thing basically. My major issue is that it needs to be connected to an outlet. Bought a battery about the same size as the pi an it will go for about 18 hours on a charge. Not practical for daily use but portable. Which brings up another problem. What if you want to take it outside of your network? Simple. Just buy a large SD card and record on board. Of course if it is not on a network it won't notify you but still useful for something like a game camera to catch the pesky critters or trespassers. I don't know how to get sound though. Others have commented on the music. Just turn it down to the point where it's not really noticeable.
Thanks for the suggestion on the background music. 18h on a battery is not bad at all. I wonder if you could extend it a bit by underclocking the Pi, and maybe switching off WiFi and other unneeded features. I thought about sound recording too. You could cook up a custom solution with a cheap microphone, and an ADC with I2C or SPI interface, but convenience would demand a pre-made product. I am personally curious about this one: fe-pi.com/products/fe-pi-audio-z-v2 . A couple of custom script could be used to trigger the camera upon motion detection and/or sound.
Owl Good for calling this BULLSHIT OUT It is FUCKING Annoying with so many people using LOUD FREQUENCY annoying music and sound effects when they are FUCKING TALKING
Hi Kradion, thank you for your contribution. Have you thought about audio? I think that audio (mixed together with video) monitoring is very important for a surveillance purpose. Thank you again for your effort!
Great video, excellent and engaging presentation but would love it if it didn't have the background music playing. Otherwise please do more as your project planning and explanation are excellent. Are you a teacher by trade?
interesting video, I've got a personal project and was looking for such solution for another purpose. Is there a tripod which fit with this case ? and in total dark, what is the quality of the picture (without the extra led device ?) Thanks again
The only difficulty I see is the need for a local power outlet ... how much power does the camera consume in standby mode ... motion detection recording mode ... and full streaming mode? What kind of battery pack round you suggest for use with the camera?
I normally leave the cameras unattended, so I would not run them on battery. The simplest (but not cheapest) solution would be to use any USB battery pack for smartphones. Anything that can provide you with 5V on a micro USB plug.
@@nalindakahettiarachchi8807 unfortunately the application I am thinking about does not have any available power source... so plugging in isn't an option. I saw one camera that would operate for up to a year on battery but it had to be tied into a specific monitoring service so that wouldn't work.
Been looking for this setup, thanks! Now I want to add a Buzzer to it so that I can manually scare someone (ok my dog) when I want to while I'm watching the video feed. Will that "Run and End Command" function let me do that if I hook up a simple RasPi Buzzer module?
Nice stuff.... it would be good to be able to use this as a security system in my camper but only 12v is available and there is no gsm in the raspberry pi available. any suggestions?
Lol...so many irritated by the digital music... Audio level is fine, I think its just the music....all this video needs....is More rubber feet...:D....good job man!
A pi zero is $10, a case is probably $3-7ish, an SD card is $5-10, and a pi Camera is $25 w/ or w/out the IR filter. $3-5 for the camera cable that fits into the pi zero. A decent IR lamp is $20. Expect to pay about $65+ per pi zero camera. Connecting the camera, while not a race, can be done in seconds. You pull the tab on the board, insert the camera cable, and push the tab closed. You'll wanna format the SD card and edit a file to have your wifi information prior to booting due to the pi zero not having a RJ45 ethernet port. You'll need micro-usb to power the pi zero at the standard 5V and consumption seems to be about 1.5W so anything at or above 300ma and you're good.
@@naoki95957 thanks for all the feedback... is the 1.5 watts a constant value... or does the system need more power while recording/sending video snd a much lower power draw while in standby mode waiting for motion detection to activate recording? I am trying to configure a battery based system to monitor locations where power isn't available ... it will watch for motion and when detected transmit a video over wifi to a server (hopefully).
Hey, thank you so much for explaining all of the setup and even more! This was so helpful. I am a total beginner and this helped a lot. I just wanted to ask you if you would be willing to try an uv pass filter on any of those cameras? I saw a thread on a forum where a guy used one of these pi noir camera with an uv pass filter and it turned it turned it into an uv camera that could see sunscreen! (shows up as black). It was so cool and that would be my goal to do. I would be so thankful if you could try that? Are you interested? It is so cool, and you could also use the camera to take uv photographs! Thank you....

What is the reason for that terrible framerate? I need a security cam that lets me see what is going on. I would love something like this for camping, to keep an eye on the trails and wildlife around me. Wireless LAN? Maybe I should just go with a 5,8GHz video transmitter and IR detection?
How would you mount something like that? I'd love to do set something like this up but I'm curious how it would work in the cold weather outside, and of course how I would secure it to a mount of some sort. Even if I used the Pi3.
instead of using a raspberry pi zero board for every security camera instance is there a way to connect all the multiple cameras to one single raspberry pi zero board.?
Thank you for the tutorial :) Does it automatically record video to the SD card or do you need to configure it to? I'd like to stream video as well as record locally on the SD card.
Nice project but you can buy a cheap wireless IP CCTV camera for around $30 which would give you proper night vision and proper IR cut for colour balance during the day. plus all the conectivity you would want with email notifications, motion detection and recording.
I got a "Pi Camera 5MP HD Webcam OV5647" I could get a test image from the command line. So it is working but I can't get it to work with MotionEye. Any idea how to get this to work? could really use some help
You need the following Softwares on you computer: SD Card Formatter: Make sure you have a slot to place the micro SD card in & Etcher: to burn MotionEYEOS in the SD card once the format is done: Format Raspbian out 1st, get the version of MotionEYEOS you need for your specific pi next, select the MicroSD card to store the software and burn!
I tried reducing the amount of software running on the system, overclocking the Pi... Nothing so far made a remarkable difference. I would try a Pi 3. Maybe you can squeeze some more fps out of it.
Using the fast network camera setting turns the stream into an mjpeg which should increase the fps. A req is having the raspberry pi cameras specifically and not usb ones. If you have the same config as the end of the vid, where the pi 3 does all the encoding, it should help.
Safest way is to put another wifi router (without internet access) and connect all cameras to that network. By doing this we can have another copy of the images in some other location. This is useful in case camera got stolen :)
Ajith Varghese I’m looking to place a couple of these in buildings where there is no internet access to catch thieves and then later retrieve them and collect the data
successfully implemented on pi zero w, connected to my cellphone's internet + motion detection alert via webhook to my cellphone directly! security on the go anyone?
Maybe far fetch, but is it possible to get snapshots emailed to me? So even if the camera is taken i know who took it, moving to a shared house without locks on the doors. Thanks
I have a video on my account that deals with using a motion sensor and snapping an image that gets emailed to you. I haven't watched all the way through this video so idk how he sets up his system, but mine is a python script that waits for motion. I have also placed the code on my GitHub at github.com/mbaker92/RaspPi-Code/blob/master/PIRCamera.py
@@hackmattr thanks, i think i found the video, have to learb to setup a cctv as im moving to a shared hoyse without locks on the doors, know people there except 2 or 3 so its my alarm system, and dont want to lose the camera with the images and cant prove anything afterwards lol
It should be possible, provided you can get the IP address of your camera. Most providers give dynamic addresses to home users. I'd first Google "dynamic DNS". Not sure if there's another simpler/cheaper way.
Great video! Annoying music though. But great video otherwise. I’m hoping to set up a solution like this at home - could hopefully get better framerate. Thanks for sharing!!
That is pretty much what I have on my first set up. I am now looking at a pie zero just for fun to see how the video comes out. It’s pretty good on the 3B plus, especially if you turn the video recording frame rate up and the video transmitting frame rate down a bit.
I dont know what i did wrong, but when i boot it, it just says *failed to establish ethernet connection*, and it just keeps rebooting after that... HELP
Is it possible with motioneyeos to get a still image simply by requesting a URL like CAM_IP:PORT/still.jpg Can this be done? this way i would be able to integrate it with my Domoticz setup.
I don't have the cameras here to test. There should be an option in MotionEyeOS configuration menu called "Snapshot URL". Point your browser to the specified URL, and it will serve you the most recent snapshot.
You need a Trinocular Stereo Microscope, They're not cheap, about $300 but would be a lot better than cameras. There are USB microscopes but I wouldn't get that, it's awkward soldering with them, looking at a screen while soldering. Those Stereo Microscopes are especially made for soldering SMD.
Great video. im hacing a problem setting my camera up to use wireless as it shuts off when i remove the ethernet cable. is this possible? using windows
Can u make it that u can access the camera anywhere, like with your phone? I got it to work locally, but not working if I try to connect to the IP with my phone on 4G :(
It should be possible, provided you know the (public) IP address of your camera. If your provider doesn't give you static addresses (most don't), then you may need to subscribe to a dynamic DNS service. I'm not sure if a simpler/cheaper method exists.
You show this build with Pi Zero Ws running the remote cameras, but they really aren't powerful enough to be useful in this role. In the video you can see that you are getting 4 fps or less off the remote cameras. That really isn't usable video for security purposes...
I must be missing something, I have installed the image using windows and etcher but there is no place to configure the wifi on the zero w and the initial boot just keeps cycling saying "no network stop motioneyes" any suggestions as to what i have done wrong
You need to add a file to the usb card before booting the Pi Zero W. Follow these instructions core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi-zerow-headless-wifi-setup.html

You need the following Softwares on you computer:

Format Raspbian out 1st, get the version of MotionEYEOS you need for your specific pi next, select the MicroSD card to store the software and burn!

Can you access the feed from a phone that’s not connected to the network? I think that would be a basic need with today’s security cameras.
It should be possible, provided you can get the IP address of your camera. Most providers give dynamic addresses to home users. I'd first Google "dynamic DNS". Not sure if there's another simpler/cheaper way.

I dont know what i did wrong, but when i boot it, it just says *failed to establish ethernet connection*, and it just keeps rebooting after that... HELP
Niklassen you'll have to reflash and start over: github.com/ccrisan/motioneyeos/wiki/Wifi-Preconfiguration
Is this open for people to commercialize it as product?
Hello Kradion ! Is Textlocal a free service international ? Thanks fo r support
if you use a USB webcam can you connect 2 webcams to the same pi?
I have 4 usb cams on my Pi3.
Is it possible with motioneyeos to get a still image simply by requesting a URL like
CAM_IP:PORT/still.jpg
Can this be done? this way i would be able to integrate it with my Domoticz setup.
I don't have the cameras here to test. There should be an option in MotionEyeOS configuration menu called "Snapshot URL". Point your browser to the specified URL, and it will serve you the most recent snapshot.
Thanks, I'll give motioneyeos a try !
I would like to have 4 cameras, angled from above, focused on one point, to aid me in soldering.
I am as blind and clumsy as Mr, Magoo!
You need a Trinocular Stereo Microscope, They're not cheap, about $300 but would be a lot better than cameras. There are USB microscopes but I wouldn't get that, it's awkward soldering with them, looking at a screen while soldering. Those Stereo Microscopes are especially made for soldering SMD.
Great video. im hacing a problem setting my camera up to use wireless as it shuts off when i remove the ethernet cable. is this possible? using windows
Yes...I'm here because I need a cam to check my dog, not for thieves. Eventually I have to defend thieves from my dog . Poor little thieves!! 😅
Hi, can i have the link to ur infrared light.
Thanks )
Can it be used 24/7? How's the temperature of the rpi zeroes?
I haven't measured the temperature, but I've been using it for weeks at a time without any problem, and no significant heating.
Can u make it that u can access the camera anywhere, like with your phone? I got it to work locally, but not working if I try to connect to the IP with my phone on 4G :(
It should be possible, provided you know the (public) IP address of your camera. If your provider doesn't give you static addresses (most don't), then you may need to subscribe to a dynamic DNS service. I'm not sure if a simpler/cheaper method exists.
If you have an iPhone and Apple TV install the HomeKit app
Pacman's Revenge Alright! A how-to video would be nice tho :D
therealnightwriter I don't understand what u r saying
That's a mini HDMI the micro is smaller like on the raspberry pi 4
You show this build with Pi Zero Ws running the remote cameras, but they really aren't powerful enough to be useful in this role. In the video you can see that you are getting 4 fps or less off the remote cameras. That really isn't usable video for security purposes...
How can I enable the usb2com connection on the gpio by default?
Great video, music is not so great.
Sir is there multicam support?
Where did you get the shorter cable from?
It was part of one of the Raspberry Pi bundles I got from kubii.fr
please dial down the music a bit
Great video! I'm on windows and I have not a clue how to preconf my wifi info. what file I have to edit? Any help very appreciated. RPI Zero W
You need to follow this, github.com/ccrisan/motioneyeos/wiki/Wifi-Preconfiguration
Thanks Tim!
Please, please, PLEASE rerecord the video without the music. I'll even promise to subscribe, I,think you are a good teacher
I must be missing something, I have installed the image using windows and etcher but there is no place to configure the wifi on the zero w and the initial boot just keeps cycling saying "no network stop motioneyes" any suggestions as to what i have done wrong
You need to add a file to the usb card before booting the Pi Zero W. Follow these instructions
core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi-zerow-headless-wifi-setup.html
Sir thank you for this great video, I want to do the same project with 6 cameras is it possible
I tested up to four cameras and the system worked flawlessly. Good luck on your project!
is this a raspberry pi zero or zero w
Zero W, as that one has Wi-Fi.
This music 😫
Video without the noise would have been nice.
U can spray paint the case
therealnightwriter wt to do ....can we install a small fan on RPI as we have for rpi2
I hate the back ground sound very annoying with such a beautiful lecture
