I have home assistant running on an intel nuc with an attached UVC (USB) camera. Is it possible to use this camera in home assistant? It is not an IP camera, it is local and can be used for example with openCV. With openCV, you need only 10 lines of python code to display the camera video.
Install some software on the NUC to make the camera accessible over the network, ideally using rtsp
, but an MJPEG (motion JPEG) stream will work too.
Also you can use motion: https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion and then configure your camera like a generic ip camera in HA.
I was hoping there would be a generic solution.
