Tessel CaaS
Tessel camera as a service is a couple of scripts that expose a feed to the Tessel camera module over a dnode connection.
Getting started
Plug camera module into port "B".
cd /path/to/tessel-caas
npm install
npm run browserify
cd camera
npm install
cd ..
npm start
open http://localhost:5004
How does it work?
server.js starts the tessel script camera.js and also creates a dnode server. camera.js takes pictures with the Tessel camera and sends them as messages back to server.js. Connected clients receive dataURL encoded images which you can drop directly into an image src attribute.
