I’ve been exploring ways to enhance my home security setup using Kuna cameras and a DD-WRT router. Inspired by some online forums, I developed a script to monitor traffic from my Kuna devices. Here’s how it works: When the Kuna detects motion, it uploads video to the cloud, and my script triggers a virtual motion sensor. This integration allows me to control my GE Link bulbs through SmartThings, adjusting brightness or turning them on/off based on detected motion. It’s pretty cool how customizable this setup is—maybe I can even extend it to dim lights when I’m streaming Netflix!
To get started, you’ll need a router running DD-WRT with curl installed, a virtual motion sensor (uDTH works great), and an endpoint URL for the sensor. I’ve included the scripts I used below, so feel free to adapt them to your setup. If anyone has suggestions or improvements, I’d love to hear them!
