# storage-security
NOTE: All of this is untested, I don't yet have hardware - just planning ahead.
Security solution for my storage locker. Deployed to a raspberry pi with an attached camera.
##### The Background
In mid-October 2020, my storage unit was broken into. This is going to be my method of collecting evidence and hopefully to identify the intruder. I'm also just trying to have fun with what is overall a bad situation for me. The major constraint for this project is it must be low power and there is no persistent communication channel to allow streaming video off premises (risk is intruder may discover and remove the storage device from the premises). Using some clever tricks, I may be able to mitigate this risk 90% of the time by keeping a phone hidden in my parked vehicle which syncs log and video data when my vehicle is parked in my parking stall?

If it's possible to communicate up to my unit in some way, I could trigger some form of alarm in my unit when motion is detected in my storage area.

Now that the infrastructure is set up the last thing needed is the application itself. The RPI will run hot while building and may crash if at minimum passive cooling is not provided. This stage may take up to an hour. Clone this repository (right here, the one you're reading) onto the rpi and grab all the go packages with go get.
```bash
cd ~
git clone https://deadbeef.codes/steven/storage-security.git
cd storage-security
go get deadbeef.codes/steven/storage-security
cd ~/go/src/deadbeef.codes/steven/storage-security

Build and install OpenCV:
