I couldn't find a post in this community about cameras so I figured I'd make one. Requirements:

  • No "sign up" required to record video
  • Video is stored locally
  • Video is in a non-propriatary format
  • Can work offline

Optional/Discussion Points:

  • Can wireless connectivity be hardware disabled
  • Can auto-update be disabled
  • Does the device try to "phone home" if it is connected to wifi
  • Disk encryption would be nice but I doubt that'll be an option for anything other than self-hosted stuff

Does anyone know about Lorex (it seems more privacy centered)?

I'm highly technical, so feel free to mention self hosted raspberry pi soltuions as well.

I mean I can and I agree, I was kinda curious if there was a kit or a software stack for it (kinda like next cloud). I did also want this post to have a list of options+tradeoffs but I probably should've done a better job communicating that.

I guess maybe the raspberry pi question would be a better for the self hosted community.
