:video_camera: infilcheck – OSS software for your DIY Raspberry Pi home security set-up

Primary LanguagePython

Infilcheck

Infilcheck is a cheap and efficient home security product that notifies you when your living quarters have been infiltrated. The software is dependent upon a Raspberry Pi (early models will be exponentially slower) and a PiCam amazon link. This repository offers software for:

  • A web application (located in the app directory, to manage any infiltrations or check on the status of your room
  • Live tracking (located in the pi directory) on a Raspberry Pi using a webcam

In addition, we created a prototype with GPIO to visually track when the Raspberry Pi is recording, when videos are sent, and the status of uploads.

Installation Guide

The Infilcheck Installation guide comes in two parts.

  1. Complete the web Installation and configure the appropriate services.
  2. Install our software on a Raspberry Pi. This process is detailed for you below.

To follow our complete installation guide and learn more about our Heroku configurations please check out INSTALL.md
