Timelapse camera for construction

  • Dec 11, 2020

I saw a camera in the store that everyone who builds houses and other structures would like to have (both for themselves and for work)


This is a completely self-contained camera (runs on conventional AA batteries) that can fix on the pillar at the beginning of construction, and at the end of it get a super-accelerated video of the progress construction.


In the default mode, the camera takes a frame every 10 minutes. In this mode, the batteries last for 80 days, which on the screen will turn into six and a half minutes of video.


This camera has a resolution of 1280x720 pixels, a viewing angle of 120 degrees.


The camera I met at the store is called the Brinno BCC200. It costs quite a lot - about $ 300. The same manufacturer has a simpler model BCC100 (about $ 200). Of course, a time-lapse camera for construction can be built from a CCTV camera or from action cameras, but here the beauty is that this is a completely simple and autonomous thing ("hung on pillar and forgot "). It's a pity that nothing like this existed when my summer cottage was being built.
