As an avid technologist I maintain my own home security cameras. These camera stream H.264 encoded 1080P video across my gigabit LAN to my home server, recording 24/7 footage for future reference. These clips are not only stored on my home server, they’re also processed via a custom Python script for motion, the results of which are logged to a file. I can easily see which video clips contain motion, and make it easier to locate something of interest.
