Left: A disassembled ArduinoCam unit. (A) aperture in the weather proof box for the power cable, which powers the modem which transmits images over the cell network (located in the space (B) ) and the Arduino single board computer (C) . Two cameras are connected to the Arduino (D, E) with views in opposite directions through windows cut into the box (F, G) . Right: An example ArduinoCam installation at Slaga for monitoring the Fagradalsfjall eruption. The unit (A) is mounted on a steel pole (B) , which guides the power cable (C) down to a 12V battery that is charged by a solar panel (D) . The steel pole is bolted to a stable rock (E)
