Show HN: I made a tiny camera with super long battery life

Hey HN! A few years ago someone kept trying to steal my motorcycle, so I decided to make a small camera with really long battery life to catch them. The hardware/software is totally open source, but the companion app only supports macOS currently. (I'm a big fan of native apps, and didn't want to block releasing on Linux/Windows support.) I wrote some blog posts about the process: PCB design: https://ift.tt/NRbLDzy Enclosure design: https://ift.tt/YbET4Vo Image pipeline: https://ift.tt/UdJfTom Rainproofing: https://ift.tt/vlVJZoI Source: https://ift.tt/kCmrQ4K
