Pi Cam

So, you've got a Raspberry Pi with the CSI camera module and you want to run it permantly, capturing full HD video and streaming it over the web, huh?

This repo provides a collection of scripts and resources to do just that. The quality is stunning and the little Pi barely breaks a sweat.

Credit where it's due

All of the hard work getting the Pi to stream using HLS was been done by Andy Armstrong over on the Raspberry Pi forums. Andy also created psips, which does some technical jiggery pokery to the h264 stream required by the HLS protocol.

Status

A work in progress. More info coming soon.
