The latest svn release (rev 802) contains the start of this camera experiment. In addition to this code I have started building a base for cameras to experiment with. Since this is a prototype I decided to make it out of wood. I also decided to make an octagon shape with the plan to support 8 cameras eventually.
First I created a octagon shape out of 2x4s. Each of the 8 sections is 8 inches on the inside and cut at a 22.5 degree angle. I used 1 8ft 2x4 to create this base.

I then created a bottom for this so I could put some equipment inside and not have it exposed to the wind


Since I decided to use the inside to store equipment, I made a top piece connected by a hinge. For now I am just using velcro to hold it shut, but I will probably and up getting some latches (depending on how our tests go)

I bought a few different cameras to test with. My test cameras are a cheap ebay camera (same as this), a edimax 3030poe (like this), and an original droid running ip webcam

I've also done some messy wiring so I could test this with vistumbler

This is still a work in progress and there is more to come. I have ordered 3 vacuum suction cups that can support 100lbs each to attach this to my car. Once I have those I can do some more testing
