The RPi-Cam-Web-Interface from Silvan Melchior and Robert Tidey does a fantastic job of accessing the PI camera hardware and streaming the images to a browser. The integrated motion detection is fine for many tasks, however, if on a windy day the background of an image changes rhythmically or the sun keeps hiding intermittently behind clouds, the motion detection settings can drive you nuts. With the PI on a network, the more elegant solution is to stream the images to a PC, classify them using inference and use the results to control the PI camera. The RPi software provides an API allowing us to do just that.
