Have been thinking about this for a couple years. I have old phones kicking around. Battery shot, hardware dated, but the camera(s) and mic and antennas still work. Would be cool if there were a way to set them up (powered) to stream audio/video or even take stills at intervals (or motion-activated) and then sync the content to the rest of the devices on my network.
I don't know how complex the programming for something like this would be. But I suspect it's trivial for those who do know.
Yeah, making an app isn't hard in and of itself but trust me, no matter how easy something seems, it just keeps getting harder once you start building. I don't mean to say you couldn't make this app in a weekend if you have the right experience, but it's gonna be buggy until you spend quite a few more hours ironing out the kinks and maintaining it
Feels on that, I know it's not a one liner. I suppose I asked here because I was looking for a possible open source/community made solution (several devs working on and refining it collectively). As it happens one of the other commenters linked to pretty much this type of solution i.e. Haven which looks dope AF and I'm a take it for a spin shortly.
