Initial commit of the MJPEG streaming server for Raspberry Pi. Supports Pi Camera Module (via picamera2), USB webcams (via OpenCV), and auto-detection of camera type. Includes: - `stream_picamera2.py` — optimized Pi CSI camera streamer - `stream_usb.py` — generic USB camera streamer - `stream.py` — auto-detects camera and launches correct streamer - `image-setup/` — SD card imaging scripts and Pi 5 headless setup guide for first-boot automation with systemd service - `requirements.txt` — Python dependencies
