Another Raspberry Pi camera
Check out this Raspberry Pi powered compact camera that uses PiJuice, an all in one battery module, to power the device.
Raspberry Pi powered compact camera
I’m so excited about this new project! A truly compact and portable Raspberry Pi Camera and it’s easy as anything to build!
I first thought about building a Raspberry Pi Camera after seeing theSnapPiCam instructable guide. This is a clever little project, which uses a LiPo battery to power a Raspberry Pi model A. But it got me thinking could I do something even more compact which is even simpler to build?
The real challenge is powering this little baby. Where the SnapPiCam is using a separate battery, converter and charging unit I’ve used the PiJuice. It’s basically an all in one battery module for the Raspberry Pi and it’s an ideal integrated power solution for a DIY Compact Camera.
I’ve also decided to use the Raspberry Pi a+ as it’s the cheapest and smallest available Raspberry Pi so it’ll fit nicely with PiJuice and make this camera supper compact!
