I figured out a little bit of a medium term project to do now that I am done with college. I have wanted to build my self-hosted, open source video surveillance system for our house for a long time. It is somewhat of a tedious project, but lots of people have done it and I think it will be fun and useful. I bought four IP (WiFi) cameras and a NUC i5 computer to use as a server. If/when I get it going, I hope to install the first system in our house here in Texas, then build up another system to with a few more cameras for our house in San Pedro. I will try to document it here with the specs of the hardware I use and the software I use.
