Now let’s create the 2 applets that we will need
Click on the “and another actor story” button and add “email send to file - snapshot“.Select IFTTT for the next action, and choose “run the Prota applet” Click on the “then” button on the top right corner.We added as “extra option” a delay of 5 seconds. NB: In our case, the snapshot was taken too quickly after the motion detected and the person hadn’t fully stepped inside. Select Webcam, the action event should be “webcam take a snapshot”. Now we will set the actions that follow this trigger.This means “when a movement is detected”. The event should be “detects a rising interrupt on pin GPIO18”. Click on “set sensor” and select GPIO.Open Stories app in your Prota Space, click on + and then on “when”.Move your hand around, you should see notifications of “rising interrupt” on the GPIO app page. If you haven’t done it yet, download the GPIO app in App Libraries.You can look at the map below if you need any direction. Simply connect as in the picture below to set properly.įor the quick explanation, the RED cable is connected to a 5V pin (PIN02), the BLACK cable is connected to a ground pin (PIN 14) and the BLUE cable is connected to GPIO18 (PIN 12). Now let’s connect your PIR sensor to your Raspberry Pi.Īs you can see, next to your sensor’s pins are small indications on what each pin is made for: Open the app to check that the camera is now working (it should start to automatically take screenshots in case of any motion).Download the Webcam app on your Prota Pi (in App Libraries).Plug-in the camera’s USB cable to your Raspberry Pi.This project is fun and easy to make (no need for special skills) and will let you discover a bit more about home automation and even refresh your knowledge of Excel! Display how many employees have arrived.With this Instructables, you will be able to create a time clock that can: Those new machines are pretty expensive (at least $100) so we propose you to create your own fun time clock machine to monitor your employees (if you’re a CEO/HR) for less than $40 ( again!) but which you can also adapt to any other use (monitor your pet's in and outs through its pet door for instance). Its concept has, of course, evolved a lot since then and most models now integrate RF or biometric technologies. Back then, it was often a paper card that the employee would slip into a machine that pinched the right time box or print it. Time clocks were mainly used at the end of the 19th century and throughout the 20th century as a way to monitor precisely the attendance of employees in big companies and factories.
