“Great SBC at a great price for hobbyists! Used it (with the Pi NoIR V2 camera & ZeroView) to observe the nocturnal activities of our pet hamster. Quite easy to set up using MotionEye OS (heaps of online tutorials available). What most YouTube videos don't mention is that the Pi Zero W is a little under powered to deliver smooth video at high frame rates (30 fps). If this will be an issue for your project, you're better off using a Pi 3/4.”
“A wonderful little device and a crazy bargain. Wifi, bluetooth, HDMI, program it in C to lever the power from the 1GHz processor or use Python for quick and easy development, a camera interface and the processing power to do something with it... Very hard to beat!”
