You're comparing a motherboard with dual CPUs at 12+ cores each, a GPU, and 16GB of RAM -- to perhaps an ESP32. Very different design goals.

- CryptoBanker 2y agoNo one said they had to hook the cameras up to a gaming PC. That’s an engineering choice
- parl_match 2y ago> Very different design goals. From the perspective of a sentry mode: very similar design goals.
- MutableLambda 2y agoSentry consumes around 200W on Intel Atom and camera based detection enabled. I'd say it's a total overkill. It even heats up the display pretty good when it's relatively chilly outside. Source: MYP 22 Intel based
- Tempest1981 2y agoWow, yeah, that's a lot of power. And didn't they already drop it by 40% earlier this year?
- sweetjuly 2y agoEven so, you shouldn't be waking all 24 cores, the GPU, etc. just to record video. Let the cameras DMA into their buffers and wake up a single core when the buffers hit a high water line. The core only needs to be awake long enough to queue up the writes to storage and then it can go back to sleep.
