motionEyeOS I chose to use motionEyeOS for my security camera OS because it’s: purpose built for cameras on the Raspberry Pi it has all the features that I was looking for in a home-built security camera, including motion detection there’s also a lot of documenation online that can help with questions you might run into Installation I am using a Raspberry Pi Zero W and a NoIR camera, so if you’re using something different, you might have a different experience.

Home Security Cameras with Raspberry Pi Zero This will be easy. – me Raspberry Pi Security Camera It all began innocently enough. I thought it would be cool to make a little security camera to put in the garage attic to look down on my driveway. I’d get a NoIR so it could work in low light levels. I’d get a Pi Zero so it’d be small.
