Arduino can do it,I have done it before

Please can I have your contact so we talk privately?

kudaisi:
Generally speaking, Arduino boards are not capable of processing video data. If you were to use an Uno (for example) to record from a camera, it will take between 10-20s (maybe more or less) to save each frame in you memory card.

However, If for some reason you insist on using an Arduino, I would recommend that you acquire a video recorder/mini DVR (this things come in many names) with cables for the external connections to act as an interface between your Arduino and the camera. Alternatively, you can get a module that transfers the video streams directly to a server using a network, then your Arduino has to only worry about detecting the time motion was detected. Subsequently, you can then cross reference that time with the video on your server.

OCDAY DVR is one of such Mini DVRs https://www.aliexpress.com/item/OCDAY-ProDVR-Pro-DVR-Mini-Video-Audio-Recorder-FPV-Recorder-RC-Quadcopter-Recorder-For-FPV-RC/32842952584.html

Thanks bro, but I've gotten an easier and pocket friendly alternative.

Someone introduced me to an ESP32-Cam module.. I made some research, that will work excellently well for my project and can easily be programmed with the arduino ide

Mehn, that fight scene between Ah Sahm and that Mai Ling guy is the kind of content I like to see.

I rewatched the scene about 3 times, awesome fight sequence.

That Mai Ling guy na beast oo

MJBOLT:

Endgame currently sits at $2.7b

Endgame really deserves that top spot.

Avatar wasn't that good tbh, if not because of multitple rereleases it may not have even grossed 2m

EvilSec:
Even if the Yun has an sd slot, arduinos can not record video. Period.
Why don't you just stick to using the PI? Grab a RPi with sufficient storage (SD card, hard disk). To send it to your server, just install sshd and then transfer with ssh or rsync or whatever client you prefer. For installation instructions, that's all a quick Google search away (usually you'd only have to install sshd as any halfway decent distro would have installed the clients already).

All this is completely out of scope of an Arduino based project. A RPi can handle sensors as well, so it makes sense to connect your motion sensor to the Pi and forget about Arduinos.

But if you really wanna try your luck implementing it with a microcontroller, and be able to send images as sms, you can grab your PIR and connect to an ESP8266 so that the ESP8266 sends a message to your cell phone. You have two totally separate things. you get the 'alarm' txt, and then you have to go on-line to look at the video or picture.

Since we assume that this is all on your home wifi, you could configure the address to be included inside of your text.

Thanks bro, I've not really worked with a Pi board but I'll make some research

EvilSec:
Arduinos can not handle camera feeds. You have to get a security camera with WiFi streaming built in for that, and have it send the stream directly.

I know I can use a wifi IP camera with a router for the same purpose, but I want to build it from the scratch with microcontrollers.

I came across Arduino Yun, it's just like a raspberry pi board with sd card port so that should do the job. But I still don't fully grasp how to automate the process. The idea is that when the PIR sensor detects motion, it captures an image then sends it as an sms.. I don't know how to automate this process that's why I've come for help

Programming Gurus.... Am currently working on a project, I've succesfully created half of it which is building an accelerometer based hand-gesture controlled robot.

Now I want to add video surveillance to it by using a webcam and pir sensor for motion detection, please has anyone done a project like this before ?

photon3106:
It happens once in a while on my phone but I realise that setting the hotspot security to NONE and restricting users to 1 fixes the problem. Try that and let's see if it works.

As for the detection, that might have to do with your PC. Be sure that your PC is able to detect other hotspots. If it does, you should then check your phone's hotspot settings and toggle the frequency band either from 2.4ghz to 5.0ghz or vice versa depending on where it was as default (also that's if the option is available on the S4)

Lmao, all these settings just to connect phone to a PC

And people will continue buying this trash.

babalonshee:
now my watch has ended for GOT abeg who can suggest another Epic series?

Watch "24"

It's better than GOT

Elixir20:
239

Alright... just perform relatively well in your putme

Elixir20:
funaab

Alright, hope your jamb score was good enough?

Itzneowizy:
As for hardcore games like PUBG, Fortnite..PES .etc..if these are ur hardcore games category....infinix S4 processor might just suffice..if it's regular games,.camera, ba3, etc....The S4 got your back....

@bolded you must be kidding... hope you know the chip of the S4 is an ordinary MTK Helio p22 ... no way it will run those games you listed without terrible lags

I really don't know what the infinix S4 is good at.

Poor performance with their overheating trash chipsets
Poor and terrible display ( imagine just 271 ppi)
They couldn't even fit it with a Gorilla glass.
Supports just few 4G bands

And this piece of trash phone costs around the same price as the Redmi note 7... lmao ..... Transsion scamming gullible Nigerians like photon3106 and phonedaddy

OnePlus is there making phones that can be compared to the Samsung s10+...

But what is infinix doing, more and more trash ... Infinix S4 is the latest trash

ddjay:
Oga u no cover up well o, try again, may be he will be convinced

Lmao, leave him... The cover up no sweet

phonedaddy:
I disagree bro, i use Note 5 and havent seen reasons to conclude so.

Continue defending mediocrity.

And of course, you won't see anything wrong with the note 5 because you are used to trash

Sportwin:
I regret buying this note 5 oooo

You were warned bro, nothing good comes from buying infinix

Nawa oo, it's about time this thread is closed.

Even D & D have forgotten about GOT and started planning for the future, but you people are still here making noise

Donwyz:
I got 250 for pharmacy UNN
what are my chances... I am from cross river

Just perform relatively well in the putme..

Tony142:
For security reasons I will not mention the name
Of the school, but it one of the schools in South South

What security reasons ?

Elixir20:
Help I have not seen my result

What school are you aspiring for?

Hashimu:
Choose among the characters, who was the game of thrones was more of all about and who made the most appearance in all the episodes from Season 1 to 8.

Definitely Cercei bro, the most important character in the series

Hehe, so this thread exists ?

naob:
Criticism is good when done right. This isn't criticism.

There are a lot of series that I have discontinued because I felt they didn't meet up to my standards. If you feel The Flash and other CW shows are not cutting it, YOU CAN STOP WATCHING THEM. It is something else, however, when you start wishing death on all the major characters, tagging it ‘good riddance to bad rubbish’.

No one's criticizing you for your choice of TV series. No one's forcing anyone to watch these series. There are myriads of series out there. You can pick those you like.

SHALOM

We all have the agree that the show is far worse than the way it started out .

@bolded, me and you are not the same. Whenever I've gone past a season of a series, I always wanna see how it plays out even if it has gone far below my expectations.

My criticism were constructive. If you have a problem entertaining criticism then you should rather ignore my comments next time.

I'm pretty sure most phones engineers in nigeria will be put out of business if there are no more Transsion phones

Photon3106, you repair phones, deep down you know the quality differences in these mobiles. Just so you can make money off them, you lie and deceive your customers

photon3106:
Exactly... I do understand you. And I sincerely hope they do something ASAP to address these issues otherwise they would start loosing their market share.

I've used the Infinix hot 2 (x510), Infinix note 2 and infinix note 4 pro. I enjoyed using the infinix note 4 pro alot more than the others especially owing to its solid battery life. I ony had to sell it recently (with no fault except for cousmetic wear) for an upgrade to HTC 10 32gb version. And this is due to the fact that I'vle always been a fan of HTC. I loved the htc 10 for being more portable but packing a whole lot of great spec compared to the infinix note 4 pro

You sold your trash infinix for HTC and you keep encouraging others to buy infinix phones just so you can repair it when their phones becomes faulty.

Lmao, Nigerians are just naturally wicked

rowland545:
my huawei tl00 dosnt even support Google so no wahala ...but anybody wit idea of what I should do should pls speak up

Your Huawei t100 doesn't run any Google app?

2rez:
You are absolutely correct. Furthermore, look up Edward Snowden. It just might help bring you up to speed as to why what is happening between both countries is happening.

Alright, thanks

PhenomenalMorgan:
That wont be a problem...
Huawei already uses its own chips 8n their smartphones, as for their laptop's, AMD or Samsung can supply chips for them...

Their own chipset might be substandard compared to what intel and Qualcomm offers...

So it's still downhill for Huawei unless the ban is removed.

ddjay:
But this guy no they shame self, check out xiaomi thread ,its one of the longest thread on nairaland, this shows that its a very good brand, ask noobody, semtu and co, they ship xiaomi phones and they don't come with problems, their customers come here to testify. But with all the offline stores of transsion phones, people still rush here to complain about thier infinix, tecno and itel. Search nairaland yourself and see, but your passion for craps and rubbish will not allow you to see something good

You are right bro... Anytime someone posts about infinix on Nairaland, it's either the person wanna complain about a fault or he wants to sell the phone.

You never actually see anyone saying he's enjoying the infinix phone he's using.

Like I say, just leave him to continue using his trash.

I think phonedaddy and phonton1321 are phone engineers. Customers always bring faulty infinix, tecno and Itel phones to them so they can repair. That's why they are encouraging others to use the transsion phones so they can continue making money repairing the phones.
If no one used Transsion phones, there would be no phone for them to repair

@bolded can be the only plausible reason for them supporting Infinix phones, because I can't think of any other reason why a sane person will go to the market and start buying infinix

I've been seeing some bs statements like
"I regret following the show from season 1"
" I regret wasting my data for nothing" blah blah blah

Seems you all just wanna follow the trend of criticizing the show for no Apt reason. The show has been excellent from the first episode up till the last.

Well, personally for me, this ending was damn perfect. I'd never have wanted it any other way.

Let's just hope the GOT prequel continues at this pace
Gracias D& D
