decentropy / sentryturret Goto Github PK

I have had some trouble finding some of the software to install. apt-get and pip seem to not recognize them. Could you post an Install guide?

Hi,
First: Thanks for sharing this project.
Second: I have a problem with adding the camera as described:

Camera: For using raspicam with opencv, add bcm2835-v4l2 to /etc/modules (more).

I can access the camera via terminal but dont know what to do with this part: add bcm2835-v4l2 to /etc/modules
Can you elaborate on this?

Thanks,
andi

As of recently you can install and compile Dlib with "sudo pip install dlib".

The current instructions say to download old version of Dlib and compile manually.

It should also mention that you should increase the memory-swap to 1gb to be able to compile it. (http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/70/how-to-set-up-swap-space)

I've tried apt-get and pip for open-cv and it cant find anything. Any idea on how to get this installed?

Do you get a better framerate with the rpi camera as opposed to the USB camera? I have modified your project to use an airsoft gun

Just came across this interesting project last night. Thanks for this code base involving opencv and dlib. I assume it works with python3 also.

Since I currently have access only to a pi3+picam and not any of the servo/turret stuff, I was wondering if you could give me a quick primer on how to use this code base for doing object tracting and motion tracking and disable/ignore the rest of the functionality. If there is an easy method that you can think of.
