Motion Activated Camera

Takes a picture when motion is detected.

Materials:

• Tessel
• Camera Module
• PIR motion detector

Connecting the PIR:

• PIR's GND goes to Tessel's GND on the GPIO bank
• PIR's +5V goes to Tessel's Vin on the GPIO bank
• PIR's OUT goes to Tessel's G3 on the GPIO bank

Connecting the camera: Plug in the camera module to Tessel port A.

Running the code:

1. Clone this repo.
2. From inside this directory, run npm install to install dependencies.
3. Run the code with tessel run index.js --upload-dir . (the flag specifies where pictures will be saved).

Now, when you move in front of the PIR motion detector, Tessel will take a picture!
