      Hey guys , as part of a university project I have to implement a camera into my magic mirror, it doesn’t matter how or what the camera should do, any idea how I can do it?
      I can use a web cam or a pi camera for this project

          @jaimegarzont lots of different camera tools. Pretty easy.

          The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

              @sdetweil do you know which ones are still working? I tried with mmm-selfieshot but it wasn’t compatible with my pi cam

                  If MMM-SelfieShot is giving you trouble, you might want to look at MMM-TelegramBot or MMM-OpenCV. Most of the older camera modules struggle with the newer Pi camera drivers (libcamera), but OpenCV is much more flexible. For a university project, using the OpenCV module might even give you some extra ‘tech’ points since it can handle face detection too!
