Picture Frame

This is a service that runs on the Raspberry Pi in the MakerSpace. It has the following purpose:

When the picture frame is attached, it copies all pictures from a certain folder into the storage of the picture frame.

Setup

Get the id of the picture frame:

$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 031: ID 1b8e:0021 Amlogic, Inc. Picture Frame

Edit the 00-usb-picture-frame.rules:

  • absolute path - /home/pi/picture-frame/00-usb-picture-frame.in
  • vendor id - 1b8e
  • device id - 0021
  • username - pi

Then, install the udev rule:

sudo cp 00-usb-picture-frame.rules /etc/udev/rules.d

Then, edit the sudoers file to not use a password and add this line replacing the "absolute path" as before:

username  ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/pi/picture-frame/00-usb-picture-frame.in

Then, edit copy-pictures.sh:

export SOURCE="..."
