Hi,
At my workplace we have a food store where people can buy snacks and drinks.
The inventory is held by a computer system and we regularly have a mismatch between what's in stock and what the computer think there is.
So there is some theft.
I needed a quick way to see what's going on...
...so I setup my AUTO-VOX A118C dashcam in motion detection mode, put it at the top of a shelf in a cardboard box with a small hole for the lens, and voila, 5-min DIY security camera with motion detection !
I used a cell-phone charger to power it.
The only issue is that the image is rotated 180 degrees but it's not a big deal.
I just wanted to share this use with you, as people possibly have old dashcams that they want to reuse, or maybe they look for an easy setup.
Materials used :
- AUTO-VOX A118C dashcam (click here for the exact product)
- Transcend 32GB high-endurance microSD card (click here for the exact product - I recommend 64GB instead)
Have fun !
