This project outlines my journey in installing a home security camera system, driven by the need for evidence if anything were to happen while I’m away. Alongside personally securing my home, I am motivated by requests from friends, particularly for a new parent wanting to ensure safety for their newborn. I faced challenges with software setup and wiring, but successfully installed the system, achieving great results. I learned valuable skills in the process and am excited about upcoming features like integrating audio. This installation not only enhances security but also increases my home's resale value.

OUTLINE • Purpose (why I choose this) • Motivation • What I have learned • Problems • What supplies are needed • Results • Conclusion • Questions
MOTIVATION • Allow me to have incriminating evidence if something was to happen when I wasn’t home • Brings up the resale value of my home
INTRODUCTION • The reason why I choose to do home security is because I want evidence if anything was to happen while I was away. • Also I have a best friend that wants to have a cameras setup for his newborn. • Once people heard that I was doing this, I have had requests to do them to there homes. • Also this will be a learning experience, something that I have never done before.
PROBLEM STATEMENT • At the start I had problems with the software and the driver. • The bulk of my time was spent in the attic of my house. It sucked! • Next problem was I left an opening in the soffit to allow me to run the wires to the cameras but a Bird got into my attic. It took me so long to get that dang thing out
PROPOSED SOLUTION • Being able to get all of the parts: • Dvr and software • Installing driver and learning the software • Assembly (took forever running the wires down the walls from the attic, and mounting the cameras) • Getting long enough audio wires. • Allowing me to access the program away from home.
RESULTS • I got everything to work GREAT! • Only problem that I am having is in camera #2, it seems to be picking up to much motion. • Setup a way to auto delete imagery so it doesn’t take to much space on my PC
CONCLUSIONS • One of the main reason I choose to do this is because of my friends baby and now he wants me to do this for his home. • Now I have set this up I have a lot of friends and family wanting it done so this will start bringing me money if I want • I really want to work on the motion sensor because it is talking a lot of extra footage that is irrelevant. (like bugs, moving tarp, etc) • As fair as learning experience, this allowed me to learn how to install dvr, cameras, run wiring, and learn about my attic (wear a mask and beware of birds)
FUTURE WORK • There is a few more things that I want to do with the cameras. One, is setting up video into all of the cable jacks. • Setting mic’s with the cameras will allow me to get audio along with the video. • Any Questions? • Thanks for listening • Mannyp24@hotmail.com
