How to Build Motion-Activated Spy Cameras


How to Build Motion-Activated Spy Cameras

Spy cameras need to be discreet, which is why many are battery-powered. To save battery life and costs, attach a motion sensor to your spy camera. Motion sensors were invented to detect and monitor the enemy during World War II. In modern times, motion-activated sensors are used in grocery stores, home lighting and even on toilets. Build a motion-activated spy camera to catch action as it happens

Instructions
1
Set the motion sensor to a five-second timer. The motion sensor provides power for five seconds after it is triggered.

2
Drill a hole the same size of the motion sensor into the frame of the painting. If the motion sensor is 1 inch in diameter, drill a 1-inch hole into the frame, using a power drill and 1-inch drill bit. Attach the battery-powered motion sensor on to the back of a painting frame and glue the motion sensor on the back of the frame, using a hot glue gun.



3.Strip 1/4-inch of the positive input wire of the spy camera, using a wire stripper. Squeeze the wire and pull the coating away from the wire. Twist the positive output wire from the motion sensor into positive input wire of the spy camera and wrap the exposed wires with electrical tape. Strip 1/4-inch of the negative input wire of the spy camera, using a wire stripper. Squeeze the wire and pull the coating away from the wire. Twist the negative output wire from the motion sensor into negative input wire of the spy camera and wrap the exposed wires with electrical tape.

4
Set the spy camera to the "Capture" function. Drill a hole the size of the camera lens and attach the spy camera on to the back of a painting frame. If the diameter of the camera lens is 1/4-inch, drill a 1/4-inch hole in the frame, using a power drill and 1/4-inch drill bit. Glue the back of the camera on to the back of the painting frame, using hot glue gun.

5
Strike a 3-inch nail into the wall and hang the painting, using a hammer. The longer nail hides the motion sensor and spy camera. When the motion sensor is activated, it sends power to the spy camera. The spy camera takes the picture while it has power.
