USB Webcam

Raspberry surveillance system

  1. Download the quick start guide

  2. Download NOOBS v1.3.2 and unzip it onto the empty FAT formatted SD card.

  3. Install SD card, connect keyboard, mouse, monitor and network cable,and USB webcam. For you own sake use the HDMI output, and things don't get to crammed on the monitor screen.

  4. Power up, and select "Raspbian", and install (i), and answer "yes" to the questions. This takes quite a bit of time ( 0.5 - 0.9 Mb/sec) When the install is ready, the card reboots.

  5. In setup: Expand filesystem

  6. In setup: Enable camera if you use a Raspberry Cam.

  7. Reboot your Raspberry card

  8. Look at the boot screen to see your IP address

  9. Login at pi@xx.xx.xx.xx using password raspberry

  10. Connect your USB camera, and use "lsusb" to see that it is connected, and "lsusb -v" for details.

  11. Or use "raspistill -v -o test.jpg" to capture a image from the internal cam.

  12. "su passwd root" to get access rights.

  13. "sudo apt-get install streamer" to get recording/capture SW for USB Web Cam

  14. "wget https://raw2.github.com/sunejak/Webcam/master/webcam_capture.sh" to get the USB camera capture file

  15. Run the webcam_capture.sh file, and look at the result in the webrowser ( startx to get GUI running )

  16. "wget https://raw2.github.com/sunejak/Webcam/master/crontab.file" to get the crontab entry for capture every minute

  17. "chmod +rx capture.sh" to set the execute mode on the capture file.

  18. Generate keypair with the command "ssh-keygen -t rsa"

    Generating public/private rsa key pair.

    Enter file in which to save the key (/home/pi/.ssh/id_rsa):

    Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):

    Enter same passphrase again:

    Your identification has been saved in /home/pi/.ssh/id_rsa.

    Your public key has been saved in /home/pi/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.

    The key fingerprint is:

    f1:7d:46:a5:96:66:90:7c:7f:9c:a1:48:a4:a3:14:cf pi@raspberry

    The key's randomart image is:

    +--[ RSA 2048]----+

    | .o...oo|

    | . ..+ o.o|

    | . E o o .|

    | . S o . o |

    | . o | : +-----------------+

  19. Add the certificate to your server "cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh user@your.server.org 'cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys'" to put RSA key on your server

  20. Tweek with camera and script parameters, edit to suit your needs.

  21. Add "crontab crontab.file" to take pictures every minute.

  22. Enjoy :)
