WA-Security-Camera
An MVP of a new kind of wireless security camera.
The story
About this project
WA-Security-Camera, also known as The Wireless Automated Photo Recon System (original name was WA Photo Recon System), is an MVP product for a full-fledged camera system. The aim of this project was to have a security camera system that only captures vital moments in real-time without clogging or taking up tons of storage space in a server (or "cloud server"). The reduction of space and minimal file size of even about 10kb or 1MB of video, saves tons of money.
The project was an MVP showcase and was completed for a show/presentation at SDSU.
With better hardware you can even get better performance on the upload speed of objects over time, as seen in the chart below (as an example):
