Running face blur plug-in whilst using the USB API

Using this method would it be possible to schedule a photo to be taken at a chosen interval from a Pi/Jetson?

most people use a bash script in a loop. You can use curl on Linux (or RPi OS) to send the command to take a picture.

If the interval is short, you can sleep the program inside the loop.

If the interval is long, such as once a day, you can use crontab

Tip: Developing THETA "Client Mode" Applications

curl examples Curl works on Windows 10 with the THETA in client mode.

NOTE: most people are using the USB API for this type of long-term use. There are limited examples using Ethernet. We don’t have examples of controlling the plug-in over Ethernet in production use. You would be a pioneer.
