Lucciola provides a simple web interface to control any supported camera via gPhoto2. Lucciola also transforms a Raspberry Pi into a automatic camera backup device.
Most modern cameras can be controlled using dedicated apps, so it may seem that Lucciola tries to solve a non-existing problem in a somewhat more convoluted way. However, Lucciola has a number of important advantages.
- No proprietary software. Lucciola is an open-source software based on PHP and gPhoto2.
- Lucciola runs in any browser, so you are not limited to iOS or Android devices.
- The tool is not limited to a specific camera model. If your camera is supported by gPhoto2, it will work with Lucciola.
- Lucciola is deliberately made simple, so you can easily customize, extend, and improve it.
- PHP
- gPhoto2
- Git (optional)
