A simple case that can contain the following items: -Raspberry Pi Zero 1.3: https://www.adafruit.com/products/2885 -Raspberry Pi Camera v2: https://www.adafruit.com/products/3099 -Edimax EW-7811Un 150Mbps 11n Wi-Fi USB Adapter: https://www.amazon.com/Edimax-EW-7811Un-150Mbps-Raspberry-Supports/dp/B003MTTJOY -PowerBoost 1000: https://www.adafruit.com/products/2465 -28mmx74mmx3mm 800Ah LiPO Battery: Recycled from a broken Wahl shaver -9mm DPDT Slide Switch: https://www.radioshack.com/products/dpdt-6vdc-slide-switch-1 -6mm Tactile Button Switch: https://www.adafruit.com/products/367 WiFi adapter was disassembled and connected to the Pi according to the very helpful guide by Chris Robinson @n-o-d-e.net: http://n-o-d-e.net/post/138478383831/how-to-add-a-low-profile-wifi-board-to-a-raspberry. I don't code, but I threw together some code which reads the momentary switch off of GPIO pin 4 and takes a picture. If the button is held for more than a quarter of a second, then video is taken. The video is killed at the next button press and converted into MP4 format: http://pastebin.com/c30ivmsC. In conjunction with this script, I also created a bash script to watch for '.jpg' and '.mp4' file extensions in the home directory. If the WiFi is connected and the Pi can reach the Internet via curl, then it will go through a for loop of the present media files, upload them to Dropbox via the dropbox_uploader.sh script https://github.com/andreafabrizi/Dropbox-Uploader/blob/master/dropbox_uploader.sh, and finally delete them once they've been uploaded to save space. If not connected to the Internet, it will just store the files locally until I'm back on the WiFi: http://pastebin.com/UPd6SeLT. Both of these scripts were appended to a list from the 'sudo cronjob -e' command in the following manner. You need to create a 'logs' folder in the home directory to see the log files: @reboot /usr/bin/python /home/pi/raspi-camera-button.py > /home/pi/logs/camera-cronlog 2>&1 @reboot /bin/bash /home/pi/drop-upload.sh > /home/pi/logs/dropbox-cronlog 2>&1
