We’ve also looked at some of the competition. While any of those will beat the 8×8 Arduino camera, they’ll cost more and won’t give you the satisfaction of building it, either.

The Arduino powered drop camera is capable of diving to 1000 m to provide 360 degree video as well as pressure and temperature readings. Watch this video on YouTube.

This project uses a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3, an Arduino Uno, some servos, and a USB webcam. The end result is a camera mounted to the servo that’s controlled by the Arduino.

The creator explains more about the inspiration behind his Arduino-powered 360-degree animal camera trap. Camera traps are a super useful tool for field biologists and conservationists!

Now we know. Intel just announced at Maker Faire Rome that the first product to use the Curie module is a brand new, low-cost Arduino board called Arduino 101.
