Summary

Now that we've completed the third chapter, let's review some of the main tasks you learned to do:

• You installed luvcview to test the camera's CPU usage

• You used omxplayer to view video files

• You configured the Raspberry Pi to support both webcam and PiCam video acquisition by installing the raspivid and motion utilities.

• You installed GParted to validate the data partition used to manage file space for video storage

• You created Bash shell scripts to automate raspivid and to combine raspivid and motion into a small but functional movement-triggered security camera system

• You created the Python 3 script to provide a small GUI for the security camera.

In the next chapter, you will learn how to use VLC and audio devices to create an Internet radio.
