Hello all,
I am seeking to modify any existing micro pinhole camera so that if the power to the unit is turned on... The unit immediately starts recording and stops when power off. Almost all of these units require a momentary push button to start recording, or built in motion detection. I really want to simpfly a system so it's only on/off operation.
Does anyone know if such a cam exists? Still or video. Or would my best bet be to have a separate controller that replaced manual switches? If so, how complicated would that be, and what would be the best route? Any advice appreciated.
-Edit- basically I need to design something to automate the momentary push-to-record button. Maybe a relay paused by a timer?
