PiKrellCam Reborn

Motion Detection with Sensor Data Logger

One of the most used motion detection and surveillance software for the Raspberry Pi with additional temperature and humidity logging and graph panel.

This fork introduces an additional web-dashboard driven by a sqlite database to keep track of temperature and humidity readings coming from a HDC1080 sensor. This dashboard is accessible by the main page of the camera preview bringing in some statistics of the collected data.

It is aimed at:

• tracking sensor data;
• keeping the original motion detection component alive and updated;
• improve its original web interface with modern components;
• building a nice dashboard for one or more sensors (via I2C interface or external ESP32s);

Current state (work in progress)

October 2022

• Changed most (if not all) of the original source code indentation style ;)
• Updated web components with recent versions (jQuery)
• Introducing bootstrap CSS for the logger dashboard and the main interface
• Added working support to a single HDC1080 temperature and humidity sensor via Python over I2C interface

Logger Dashboard

The original PHP code from raspberry_temperature_log written by Paweł Spychalski has been adapted to be used within this project.

Legacy Version

PiKrellCam is an audio/video recording motion detect program with an OSD web interface that detects motion using the Raspberry Pi camera MMAL motion vectors.

Source Code

The repo contains the source code.
