Code

Part A. HelloYou from the Raspberry Pi

a. Link to a video of your HelloYou sketch running. Video

Part B. Web Camera

a. Compare helloYou/server.js and IDD-Fa18-Lab7/pictureServer.js. What elements had to be added or changed to enable the web camera? (Hint: It might be good to know that there is a UNIX command called diff that compares files.)

b. Include a video of your working video doorbell

Video

Part C. Make it your own

a. Find, install, and try out a node-based library and try to incorporate into your lab. Document your successes and failures (totally okay!) for your writeup. This will help others in class figure out cool new tools and capabilities.

The camera image was always blur/overexposed which limited the things I was hoping to do (apply image filters and show a set to the user to select from).

Alternately, I was able to use Jimp plugin to write a text caption on top of image. Also, using nodemailer, I was able to mail the final poster to the user.

b. Upload a video of your working modified project

Mail with poster
