Raspberry Pi WebCam with 3G (Solarcam)

The Idea

• Use solar panel to harvest energy
• Store the energy in a left over car battery
• Power a Pi with camera and 3G-Stick
• Make a nice webcam out of it :)

How To

Update your Pi

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

Install USB-Modeswitch

apt-get install usb-modeswitch

(you'll need this later to switch your stick from mass storage to modem mode)

Tips

• Remember that this Pi is in the wild and easily stolen or all the data read
• Don't use your usual passwords for this project
• Don't store keys on the Pi
