SELF-DIRECTED PROJECT

TOOLS / EVENT AUTOMATION

The problem

Continuous recording produces too much material to review, while an event-only clip can miss what happened just before the trigger.

The approach

  • Use a pre-roll buffer and motion detection to capture relevant context.
  • Fan out notifications with failure isolation between channels.
  • Add event logs, camera reconnection, retention and a local viewer.

What was built

A focused utility with recording, notification and recovery components, supported by source-level test suites.

How this applies to your team

The same engineering applies to equipment events, operational alerts and unattended data capture.
