CCTV Media Box

Summary

My house setup featured a room overlooking the driveway which also has a retractable ceiling mounted projector in it. I needed to make a media box to power streaming services to this projector setup, but coincidentally the window next to where I’d naturally put the media box had a great view out of the window.

I made this box to automatically track things happening on the driveway in front of my house, while simultaneously enabling the projector with streaming services.

It worked well, sending me telegram messages (including pics/video) of people turning up outside the house.
