motionEye is a web-based frontend for the motion video surveillance daemon, providing a browser interface for configuring and viewing cameras with motion detection. It is written in Python and commonly deployed on Linux systems including Raspberry Pi.

Use cases

  • set up a home cctv system with a web interface
  • monitor ip cameras from a browser
  • configure motion detection recording on a raspberry pi
  • view and manage multiple surveillance cameras in one dashboard
  • get motion-triggered snapshots and video from webcams
  • self-host a video surveillance server

When to choose

  • you use the motion daemon and want an easy web UI for it
  • you want a lightweight self-hosted surveillance solution on Linux or a Raspberry Pi
  • you need browser-based camera monitoring with motion detection

When to avoid

  • you need a full commercial NVR with cloud features
  • you are not running Linux or cannot install the motion daemon
  • you need native mobile apps rather than a web interface
