This seems like a pretty cool thing to keep an eye on if you have a Raspberry Pi. They built a place for people to submit the projects they are doing on the Pi.
I have today setup a wireless bird/motion camera thing on my balcony. Just need to wait for a bird to be attracted to the gone off crisps! I hope they like prawn cocktail because I don't!
Basically...
Battery - 12v 12Ah
DC-DC step down converter
RPi
USB WiFi Adapter
Motion Sensor
Camera
Temp Sensor (but that's not really relevant for the camera/motion sensor)
Yes, yes you should! I am in the process of making a carputer. Just trying to decide on the 7" USB touchscreen monitor that I should get. Going to put a usb GPS in it and also configure bluetooth A2DP on ze Pi. Then put the screen in my dash.
I'd really, really love it if they would get Android running on it because that would let me do everything I really want to do very easily.
