An OS is the basic operating system software that tells the Raspberry hardware what to do.
#SURVEILLANCE CAMERA RECORDER INSTALL#
That's all: for about US$120 we have all the hardware we need to build this HD surveillance cam.Īt first, you should install the OS and software to the Raspberry Pi before mounting it all together. A better alternative is such a WiFi USB adapter for only about US$10: One possibility is to use a LAN connection, but you would need to put LAN cable to the point where you want to mount the camera.
To connect this cam to your network, you also need some kind of network connection. Any SD or microSDHC should do the job, but we recommend using a Class 10 SD card. 
SD card: as the Raspberry Pi does not have any storage on board, you need to add some so that you can install and run the operating system for this device. We have ordered such a power supply which already has a micro-USB plug for about US$10 Any power supply with a micro-USB plug can do the job as long as it supplies at least 1A of power. Power supply: The Raspberry computer does not come with any power supply, you have to get one on our own. The dimensions of the Raspberry board are 85.6 x 53.98 x 17 mm (approx 3.37 x 2.13 x 0.67 in). You can use any camera housing, but only be careful about the size of the housing so that the Raspberry board will fit in there. We have ordered this camera housing for about 20€ in Germany that had enough space for all the components. Search the web for "surveillance camera dummy" and you will find loads of housings for your new camera for only a few dollars. There are loads of very cheap fake security cameras available which perfectly fit our needs here. A housing for the camera: you don't need to buy a high-price-housing for your Raspberry. We've not yet had the chance to test it, but it should work for this surveillance camera as well. There will be an infrared camera module for the Raspberry Pi soon as well ( ). ships this camera in the US for only US$29. The website will show you where you could order it from your country. It has a connector to be plugged directly into the Raspberry board and supports HD video up to 1080p. Raspberry Pi Camera Module: This module was specially build for the Raspberry micro-computer. If you plan to use a model A, please read that article. #SURVEILLANCE CAMERA RECORDER HOW TO#
Stefan Knight has written an excellent article on how to run this whole project on a model A. You could also use the Raspberry Pi Model A which is slightly cheaper and consumes less energy. Raspberry Pi Model B: This is the larger model of the Raspberry computer system with 700MHz and 512MB Ram.This is a list of the major things we need: It cost only about US$35 and opens up endless possibilities of what you can build with it. Have you ever heard of Raspberry Pi? It's a low-cost micro-computer that is able to run Linux and has endless extension possibilities. Usually, such a cam will cost you around US$1,000, but with the result from this article, you will get such a cam for only about US$120.

This article describes how to build a surveillance cam based on a Raspberry Pi micro-computer which records HD video when something moves in the monitored area.
