This is yet another time lapse project for the Raspberry Pi which aims to create a long term time lapse camera based on the Raspberry Pi and the Camera Module.
The aims of this project is to create a device that can take time lapses of an entire day from battery power. These images will be archived locally and then synced to a network server at the end of the time. The ultimate aim is to have the device self powered using possibly solar power and wind power as a backup. The physical size of the device aims to be no bigger than a CCTV camera from the late 80's.
The following are the projects feature aims. As development hasn't started yet they will be implemented as required by this project
- Remote access via a webserver
- RTC hardware clock to keep accurate time
- Wireless on/off hardware switch
- Power switch
- Battery powered
- As lower powered as possible
- Solar recharging
- Developed for the Model A
- Web view to setup shot for time lapses
- Local storage for several days worth of capture
- Local and remote server for creating and uploading the timelapses to YouTube & Vimeo
- Set time intervals in 5 second increments
- Set resolution of image
- Mobile interface to make easy configuration on Android or iOS
