Timelaspe for Raspberry Pi/linux

These scripts allow for easy capture of timelapses using a Raspberry Pi and a regular USB webcam (not the camera with the special connector for the RPI).

ffmpeg must be installed for these scripts to work.

These were created as a way to monitor sun levels in our garden, so there is a red timestamp in the top corner. Remove the -vf "drawtext..." option to remove the timestamp

Usage

  • ./capture.sh to start timelapse
  • ./create.sh to combine image sequence into mp4 video
