      @danielis Fingers crossed, this appears to be working! The mirror has turned on and off a dozen times now with no processor or RAM issues.

              Not working here. Only either one or the other.
              But paviro said he will include a motion detection to the facial recognition module at some time.
              I will try to do it also. Will report if I have success

                Hi!

                I’m trying to get this to work, have a USB cam attached to the RPI3 and installed the .js.
                But when I add the code:

                {
                module: ’motiondetector’,
                config:
                }
                }

                Am I missing something? Because it only give me errors… :(

                (new to this)

                  @oscarkindberg Try this instead:

                              {
                                      module: 'motiondetector',
                                      config: {
                                              timeout: 300000 // time in milliseconds for to switch off the display after last movement is detected.
                                      }
                              },
                  

                  This is set for a 5 minute delay. Modify the timeout value if you want a longer or shorter delay before your screen turns off.

                    @in_a_days Hit! Works now, BUT next issue.
                    After 5-6 min the screens goes white, can’t find anything in the code that would cause that.

                      I apologize if this a very noob question but I am having trouble getting the motion detector module running. I have clone the files to the module folder. I have modified the config file but maybe I dont have it correct. Could some one show me how the config file be modified to get the module running. Any other pointers? Thank you,
