Motion Detection System

This program uses OpenCV library to detect motion through a camera feed. If motion is detected, the program will open a web page and a file on the system.

Requirements

• Python 3
• OpenCV library
• configparser library

Installation

1. Clone or download the repository.
2. Install the required libraries using pip:

pip install opencv-python configparser

3. Edit settings.ini with the path to the file you want to open and the URL you want to open in your web browser.

Usage

1. Run the motion_detection.py script from the command line.
2. The camera feed will open up in a new window.
3. The program will detect motion and open the file and URL specified in the settings.ini file.

Configuration

You can customize the following parameters in the settings.ini file:

• program - The name of the program to run.
• filepath - The full path to the file to open.
• url - The URL to open in the web browser.
• motion_threshold - The minimum area (in pixels) for a contour to be considered as motion.
• motion_delay - The number of seconds to wait before detecting motion again.
