How cool would it be to build your own burglar alarm system that can alert you before the actual event takes place simply by using a few network-connected cameras and analyzing the camera images with Apache Kafka ® , Kafka Streams, and TensorFlow? A convenient option is using Power-over-Ethernet-enabled (PoE-enabled) cameras.
