# Webcam

A Deno program that takes snapshots from a Raspberry Pi camera, uploads it to S3

and then creates a time-lapse video with the results. Also has a script to take

a live photo.

- uses a

  [Raspberry Pi 4 Model B](https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/raspberry-pi-4-model-b/)

  and [Camera Module 3](https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/camera-module-3/)

- uses `libcamera-still` to create a snapshot

- uses `convert` to annotate the snapshot with the current time

- uses `s3` to upload the snapshot to S3

- uses `ffmpeg` to create a time-lapse video

It works via a cron job that runs at various times during the day.
