This document discusses how the presenter created an Internet of Things (IoT) project using a Raspberry Pi, solar panel, and camera for under $100. It started as a way to reuse old Raspberry Pis but faced issues with battery life. The presenter then developed a solution using a MOSFET, ATTiny microcontroller, and shell scripts to power off the Pi when battery voltage is low to extend battery life. The current version can send sensor and camera data over WiFi to a server when powered by a small solar panel and battery. The code and instructions are available online for others to replicate the project.
