Introduction: Keychain 808 Spy Camera With PIR Motion Detector Controlled by Arduino Chip

About: I am a researcher leading quantum optics labiratory. Previously I was working on development of optical atomic clocks. Electronics is my hobby since childhood when my uncle was bringing me old phones to play a…
This project describes how to automatically take photos with 1024x768 pixel resolution
using a miniature Model #3 808 keychain spycam with 8GB microSD card
triggered by a PIR motion detector
and steered by Arduino chip.

After issuing signals to camera buttons, Arduino chip is put into power-down mode waiting for the next interrupt to come from the PIR detector. Power consumption in power down-mode is 0.4 mA from a single LiPo cell.
