I have been playing with a couple, as have my friends. Various folks have 3D printed cases for particular uses, or you can just use any little box with a hole drilled for the camera.<br>
<br>
It's programmable with the Arduino tools, or with Micropython, or with an embedded Javascript framework. You need an FTDI usb device to boot it, program it, ...<br>
<br>
Folks have used it effectively for security camera applications. The camera that is usually sold with it (a very teeny camera indeed, smaller than a black bean, which I almost lost when I opened the package with the board and camera, the first time).<br>
<br>
Easily battery powered. You can find a lot of support from the hacker community.<br>
<br>
It does a simple (imperfect) face recognition onboard as an option, and can do single frames or streams, and has a number of GPIO pins you can use to trigger it, if triggering by motion isn't what you want.<br>
