How to Make Your Own DIY Hidden Camera

As you're looking for a covert surveillance device to monitor your home or office, you may decide that rather than using a camera built into an ordinary object (like a hidden camera clock), you might want to make your own DIY hidden camera.

There are two main types of DIY hidden cameras you can make to suit any environment in your home or office. The first is a mini DIY camera kit. This is a tiny camera kit that you can easily hide or build into objects to make your own hidden spy camera.

The second type of DIY spy cameras is our popular black box cameras. These mini black box designs are easily hidden in plain sight, or you can place them inside an object already in your home, like a tissue box or a plant.

These hidden camera kits are tiny devices made up of the core components of the device:

The three above components come in various styles and sizes. For example, a pinhole camera lens can offer various video resolutions, from 480P to 1080P. They also come in different megapixels. The higher the megapixel, the higher the quality of the camera, even if the video resolution is the same.

So for example, a 1.0 megapixel 1080P HD camera is a good camera, however a 2.0 megapixel 1080P HD camera (like our
DIY camera kit ) is even better.

The camera board is the "brains" of the device, and has a built in processor that controls all the camera's functions, such as recording video or streaming video.

A self-recording camera board is one that simply records video to a memory card, and is the easiest to set up. The other type of camera board is a WiFi camera board, which allows you to live stream your video, so you can watch it on your smartphone or computer.

The third component of the DIY camera kit is the power supply. For short term use, a rechargeable battery is ideal, while AC power is recommended for long term recording and operation.

The second type of covert "spy" cameras you can use to make your own hidden camera are our popular black box hidden cameras or black box nanny cams.

Black box hidden cameras are "all in one" devices - meaning that all the components are packed neatly inside a little black box. A pinhole camera lens is at the front of the black box, allow you to hide these devices anywhere (or leave them in plain sight), with only the pinhole camera lens needing to be visible.

We have several types of black box hidden cameras - some have night vision, some don't. Some simply record to a memory card, while others stream live HD video to your smartphone:

The nice thing about these black box spy cameras is that you can hide them anywhere you want. Cut a small hole in a tissue box, place it behind the leaves of a house plant or office plant, or just leave it next to your cable box where it will blend right in.

The flexibility of these black box cameras make them perfect for almost any video surveillance situation.

Now that you've learned a little bit about DIY spy cameras, it's time to pick one out. The first things you should look for are the following:

This is a simple and easy way to make a document camera with some household items, this also has a face view. (Does require phone)
This craft will require a decently sized box (untouched), scissors that can cut through cardboard, and some decently sturdy tape.
Some boxes already have handles where you can put holes through them but if you don't have that then you can cut a hole through it with scissors.
This will give you some more usage of your hands, if you cut the sides and the top of one side of the box it will let you move your hands around a little bit with you taking away writing space.
This is for the face time picture. You can prop the phone up to the top piece and it'll stick if you prop it up like the example on the picture.
You can do whatever you want with it now, you can decorate it so that it looks better, but other than that you can use it to record whatever you want.

This instructable show you how build your own DIY Security Camera, which takes a picture of the person at the door and send an email with the picture to your email box, so that you'll know if it's some you know or its an intruder..
Here are the electronics components you'll need
3D printer to print the STL files attached , in my case I am using
Note*: To check if your USB Webcam will be compatible check the following Wiki link ,i am using Logitech c270 webcam.
To get started, configure the onboard WiFi on the Arduino Yun using the following steps
- Connect the Micro USB able to a power outlet or your computer USB.
- Connect your computer to the Yun's Wifi , in the Wifi setting of your computer , basically once you power up the Yun in a few second you should see Wifi called "ArduinoYun-XXXXXXXXXXXX" in your network setting .
- Using a browser enter http://yun.local as shown in the picture above
- A web should display asking you for the password , here enter "arduino"
- Now a configure button will appear
- Once you hit the configure, select your WiFi router name and enter the password as shown in the second screen shot above
- Now you may choose to change your Arduino Yun name, password and play around with the other setting.
- Once done hit the Configure and Restart button, this will connect your Yun to your home WiFi.
For more details refer to the guide on the Arduino website at the following link
Now to Upload sketches to the Yun you will need the latest version on the Arduino IDE, basically Arduino IDE 1.5.4 installer or later.
Connect the PIR sensor to the Arduino Yun
Download the Basic PIR testing sketch and upload it to the Yun. Before hitting the upload button in the board section select Arduino Yun as shown in the second screen shot.
SSH into you Arduino Yun using the Terminal on your Mac, or using a tool like Putty if you are using a windows machine
Note: if you are not able to resolve the IP for yun.local, find out the IP address of your Yun and use the IP address instead (like ssh root@192.168.1.8)
Accept the RSA key by typing in Yes
Now you can run a few of your favorite shell commands like ls,df etc..
For more details on using command line communication using SSH refer the following link
Connect the Yun to the USB webcam and insert the micro SD card.
Now at the SSH prompt of your Yun type in the following command to install the fswebcam package which will help us take pictures
start with updating the package manager
install the UVC drivers for the webcam
Now to take a picture , you'll have to first mount the SD card
Note*: To check if your USB Webcam will be compatible check the following Wiki link ,i am using Logitech c270 webcam.
To access the files and upload python code to your Arduino Yun's SD card, you can use a FTP client like FileZilla ,WinSCP.
Start by installing SFTP server on your Yun using the following commands
Now download and install an FTP client like FileZilla from https://filezilla-project.org/
Once installed open FileZilla and go to File --> Site Manager -->click on New Site.
Note: the default password is arduino, if you have not reset it as part of the setup process
Click the connect button which will take you to the main screen, where you can access the root folder as shown in the picture above , in my case I using the SD card from my Camera, because of which you see quite a few folders.
For more features refer to the FileZilla wiki
Download the Sketch attached and Upload it to the Arduino Yun via the USB cable.
And since the Yun is connected to WiFi you can also upload the sketches via Wifi.
Now once motion is detected you''ll receive an email as shown in the screen shot above , with the picture taken by the web cam.
Note : To upload sketches to the Arduino Yun you will need the latest version on the Arduino IDE, basically Arduino IDE 1.5.4 installer or later.
Download the STL file attached and load it in your printer software and slice the file, based on your printer setting,the webcam Holder
Download and 3D print the from of the security camera which holds the PIR sensor and webcam
In addition I wanted to give a shout out francisperea who create and awesome bare minimum bumper case(YunCase.stl) which you can find at : Arduino Yún Bumper - created by francisperea
In my case I am using the Printrbot Simple Metal and Hatchbox black 1.75 mm PLA
Now to 3D print these parts you'll have to change the slicer setting to print with support as shown in the second picture above.
Now once you have 3D printed your part putting the electronic components together is pretty self explanatory
Attach the Yun to the bumper and added it to the bottom part of the case using screws
Attach the PIR sensor to the front 3D printed part using the longer screws and nuts.
Complete the circuit using bread boarding wire, here
Now add a screw to the webcam holder and snap it to the webcam and then attach it to the top case using a nut.
Now attach the fake Antenna using a screw and neatly tuck the web cam wire.
The 3D printed case has two mounting options, one using a hinge type mechanism at the top of the housing and the second is for a swirl type mechanism at the bottom.
I am plan on using the hinge type mechanism which is simple of the two, which fits perfectly on back door.
A tip here when selecting the mechanism is to take the 3D printed part with you to the hardware store like a Home Depot and select the mechanism that suit your mounting point for the DIY security camera.
And in addition since the Arduino Yun is powered by a USB cable you'll have to find a way to tunnel your USB cable to power socket.

Thanks for the comment .. Considering you can print the 3D printed parts at a library or a local maker space,it should cost around 100$ for the electronic components.
- like the idea - would this be usable with - 1 pre-made case?, - 2 case cut from sheet acrylic?, - 3 wood case? - 4 sheet aluminum? - (I guess, camera is 'independent' of any
