DIY Tesla Security Camera System | Raspberry Pi

[@getinthespace7715]

Nice. I want to build a system with a bunch of cameras, transmit data wirelessly. Would be cool.

[@Bozobi]

I know I’m late to the party by three years, but, thank you for this video. I have stuff I care about a lot, and making one of these systems for surveillance is awesome. Not only is it tied to just vehicles, but home surveillance too! I’d love to design a 3D model and 3D Print a housing for inside my vehicle and one for the outside!

[@nothanks7752]

Pretty great, and if you setup the display up front, you now have a really good backup camera. Only thing I'd add is infrared lighting for night time, and maybe a daylight/motion sensor to turn them on, to reduce battery drain.

8:03 "Don't be a complete ..." what! Dude don't leave us on a cliff hanger

[@TyPalowski]

"...Mean person." lol Thanks for checking out the video!

[@FrootNinja]

I would love a follow up video on this to make it like a Tesla camera system! This is sick!

[@kasimraza6669]

Great job ty. Practical solutions to real problems. I love it. Keep it up.

[@TyPalowski]

I appreciate that! Hope you liked the video!

[@thamomentum]

Dude thank you - even after 3 years - this is helpful

[@druming9]

Great video. Love the solution you came to. I used to have an 03 TJ just like yours, I miss it so much. Luckily nobody ever cut my windows; I always left my doors unlocked to try to keep them from needing to cut them. Anyways, I'm rambling, keep up the good work and I look forward to the next video.

[@TyPalowski]

I appreciate you very much for taking the time to watch and comment! I'm happy you didn't have to go through this! Thanks for the kind words.

[@themikeymikechannel2947]

To keep it cool - run a tube from a/c vent to (car dvr) and close that vent off so the a/c blows in the tube and into the dvr.

[@Vilavek]

Great content and presentation as always! Your videos are criminally under viewed and it makes me sad.

[@TyPalowski]

Awh, I appreciate that. Don't be sad though! As long as those that are subbed to me can see the videos, I'll be happy.

[@chrishansen5301]

Like how you explain what you could do better at the end of your videos 👌

[@andym443]

Nice stuff. Definitely inspired me to go back and try out my rpi dashcam again. Never thought of getting one of those little 12v lead batteries. I have a load sitting around at work that came from a duff UPS. Keep these videos going; I for one am really enjoying them.

[@bigaltaufetee4933]

Thank bro, this really helped me decide to go forward with my van camera. I need it. I think it’s super cool to have it

[@Macintosh93]

I had just thought about doing this and wanted to see if I could find if anyone has done this. And wow to say I'm surprised this doesn't have more views is an understatement

[@ashg4045]

I wish I was skilled enough to make this for my vehicle. Person(s) keeps messing with my car and I want to catch them in the act. The police will not do anything unless I have video evidence and I want something discreet. I have yet to find anything on the market that compares to a Tesla camera system, but too broke to fork up that type of cash. Very intelligent people are living the dream with the rewards of their DIY abilities.

[@christianhall2544]

Awesome! Can't wait for the next one!

[@TyPalowski]

Thanks for the continued support Christian! I’m glad you liked the video.

[@MichaelSuperbacker]

Hi Ty, I think you should revisit this concept! Great video! I want to make my own Tesla Sentry Mode System.

[@samhudson333]

This was a really great video. An awesome idea and a repeatable solution. From a viewer perspective, I think it would have been really nice to get some more footage of the device in use. Driving around, parked, etc. Keep it up, love seeing this channel grow!

[@TyPalowski]

Thanks for the continued support and suggestions Sam! I agree, I'll be sure to spend more time filming the project after it's completion as opposed to just focusing on the process.

[@christosvolikakis1523]

How is your custom black box working for your Jeep 4 years running now??? I’m curious what modifications you have done to it? Is there a way to add a cell phone Internet, connection of sorts so that you can be notified on your phone if someone’s actively trying to break in? I would love to see some sort of open source app, where DIY builders contribute to making it functional. There are employee owned businesses, so why not user owned apps???

[@armyronusa]

This is sweet. I am gonna build a quadruped pretty soon. Will prally use this camera/software setup plus maybe some face detection software to make a Kool roving security spider Droid thing. Keep up the good videos man!

[@TyPalowski]

That’ll be awesome! Look forward to seeing a video about it!

[@ninline2000]

You're right. The PiZero would have been a better choice. Smaller, cooler, cheaper and less power draw.

[@hardkore360]

usually 5V powered devices can take much more than 5V, as they are typically built with a tolerance and can take up to 1 or 2V more, not sure if the raspberry pi is the same but the datasheet should provide this information for min. and max. power requirements

[@Bigmanruss21]

Love the Video! keep it going! When you eventually make it to a KZbin Makers event tell Simone Giertz I said hi.

[@TyPalowski]

Thanks for the continued support! I don’t know about all that, I hope to make it somewhere like that some day!

[@eetgribtek382]

very nice project

[@CARandDRONE]

Yup, I’ve had a rando slash my drop top before. Sickos.

[@jayvilla8424]

Great video! Keep it up!

[@MichaelPick]

Love your channel man! If you ever want to collab let me know!

[@TyPalowski]

Thanks for checking it out! Life has been kind of crazy recently haha. I’m sitting on a video but not sure when to upload it. Keep me in mind too if you think of something we can both work on! I’m down.

[@MichaelPick]

@@TyPalowski I saw the house video! Congrats man, that's a big move! I'm also finishing up a new video as well. Something that I thought would be really fun is to do something like a $50 or $100 build challenge, where we both have to make something, but we have to keep it within budget. For example. Build a "smart coffee maker" or something like that. I'll try to think of something, and if you have any idea's let me know!

[@christx68]

Found your video because I want to build something like this for my upcoming Jeep build. I wanted to take this a step further and have front cameras that I can see from inside the Jeep to watch my tracking when rock crawling. Any ideas on how to hook this up to a tablet to have mounted inside the Jeep?

[@Lordofrimgs]

Useful. Subscribed..

[@julianmaldonado1072]

I may copy this project for my work truck, I get to plug in my truck to the wall at home and it has wifi so this might work out great! Curious how the battery will last in the Texas heat. Would be happy to donate a TS100! Msg me if interested

[@TyPalowski]

Feel free to use it haha! And seriously?!? I was somewhat kidding, but if you have an extra one you don't use I'd take it off your hands. I don't feel like I've earned you spending money on anything for me though.

[@julianmaldonado1072]

@@TyPalowski I disagree! I sent you an email

[@cameronwilliams6311]

What was the software you are using?

[@GEAUXFRUGAL]

Wouldn't it be better to just use a Prius blade battery? A solar panel and it should keep it powered.

[@N00dl3G0d]

I got my 02 camry keyed yesterday and I find it flattering they envied it😂means I did something right

[@TyPalowski]

Lol I’m sorry that happened to you!

[@matthewwoods8709]

I think you might of made a mistake in assuming that the amplifer in in your car only gets power when the key is turned. In my car there is always 12V power going to the amplifer and when it is time to turn the amp on, the remote line (triggered by the ignition/head unit) then supplies 12v to the amp to flip a relay Inside the amplifer. Ofc your situation might be different but that is how my car works. Nice Video Just my 2 cents

[@TyPalowski]

Yeah my system is pretty janky; stripped and frankensteined from a couple old/dead sound systems over the years with added components to make it work. Fully functional systems do work like you say! Thanks for leaving a comment and checking out the video!

[@johnwayne2103]

Rule of thumb with convertibles, try to have a garage, there is a rash of people who go out of their way to slash convertible tops. Every single person I have known who had a convertible has had their top slashed. Wouldn't you know most of them lived in Apt complex's. You could not pay me to ever live in an Apt complex again. Rent a home or even better try and find someone who is rich and has an Apt over their garage. They love the fact that someone is at home or unpredictable to watch over their expensive stuff.

[@humblebeats3391]

You don't know how fast you could be a millionaire if you could replicate that system with motion detection, 360 view , with a playback display, and massive storage to record atleast 24hrs. Rydeen Tombo 360 3d in the closest thing I know. Still waiting for it to be release. Just got my suv keyed at a gym by some A hole for no reason...

[@krajca666]

I have been looking for this topic for some time. This looks very simple and functional. The only think I am just wondering is performance at night. The cam is kinda useless during nights isnt it?

[@TyPalowski]

Thanks for checking out the channel and leaving a comment! They do sell RPi cameras that have IR lights used for ‘night vision,’ but I was unsure of how battery life would be affected. For me I have a light right next to my parking spot that turns on about an hour after it gets dark so I’m not too worried haha.

[@cwaynesears]

The power supply you used may have been 9V and not 12V. Remember the right hand rule doesn't apply when using two butt converters. So, your calculations should have been made with left handed calipers.

[@TyPalowski]

I didn't even think of that. You're right!

[@Ryan_Carder]

Man, i need a friend like you to help me with shit like this 😅

[@adrianramos2229]

Cool!

[@TyPalowski]

Thanks!

[@aryanwadhera]

gonna to quick math(ends up taking 1 minute)

[@jesussaves4142]

Can I purchase this from you please?

[@XxIcybluexX]

I wanna do this exact thing to my car but on part to the the tesla's.

[@broncochamo]

What you don’t know is that the Less bucket u have more heat is concentrated

[@circuitmasters5258]

My car was destroyed brother because PEOPLE wanted ME to be walking...LOW AND BEHOLD..I AM INSTALLING ONE HELL OF CAR ALARM SYSTEM AND A GUN!

[@humblebeats3391]

If your idea don't work . Try a new system coming out soon.Dec. 2020 or early 2021. It's the Rydeen Tombo 360° 3D car surveillance camera.

[@whyldthing86]

Is it still working after 2 years?

[@TyPalowski]

I actually retired the Jeep a little over a year ago. It was working at that time though!

[@nolsova1140]

Coool!

[@sirteddy2100]

Use a separate 12v car battery, then you only need 1 buck 👍

[@seanns1945]

Trying to cram 2 hours into 8 minutes and 5 seconds........................Wow!

[@oildiggerlwd]

You could do a 2S3P lithium ion battery pack with a 2S BMS which would give 44ish Wh if I'm doing my math right. Also could do a 3S with a buck converter to hold the BMS charging voltage to 12v. vruzend.com/product/11-1v-12-6v-3s-lithium-ion-battery-charger-3-amps/ vruzend.com/product-category/bms/

[@TyPalowski]

My only concern is the temperature that the floorboard of my Jeep gets to - I'm worried that the temps and charge cycles might make the lithium get unstable. But I'm still new to all this, so I'll keep researching what you posted! Thank you very much for the suggestion and taking a look at my video!
