Time for an upgrade, and an update too...
I have been waiting for a long time to get myself one these Raspberry Pi cameras. From the beginning I wanted to experiment with a camera, movement detection, making some time-lapse videos... Unfortunately when I tried initially with my good old Logitech 4400 webcam, it did not work so well. Something was wrong with the USB driver? Not clear, but at the end I never managed to get it working well. Recently, well a few months ago already, the 2nd big version of the Raspberry Pi got out. The perfect opportunity to get an upgrade for my existing system. The camera is nice: simple setup, works out of the box. The documentation is great and better, the default distribution (Raspian) got all these nice shell command lines to control the camera. This opens a bunch of new ideas, things to try out in the future :-) The "old" Raspberry Pi is still running, my home "alarm/surveillance" system (still based on my Ruby ZWay wrapper library , that I update and improve -
