Home Surveillance System With Node and a Raspberry Pi

What's this blog post about?

This tutorial guides users in building a small and affordable home surveillance system using a Raspberry Pi 4, a Raspberry Pi Camera module, and a motion sensor. The software side of the system uses Vonage Video API to publish the stream and Vonage Messages API to send SMS notifications when motion is detected. The project utilizes Node.js, Express, and Puppeteer to create a web server that can be accessed remotely. It also leverages Ngrok to expose the Raspberry Pi's IP address to the internet, allowing users to access the surveillance system from anywhere in the world.
