connecting Pi's together

[TheBean]

I want to implement something like option 2 here:

https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/927120-diy-wifi-cam-tutorial/

 

However, the way I want to set up them up is to have the 2 pi's quite far from each other. would that still work?

I also wanted to run another project on the main hub at the same time. can i do that?

 

my situation:

I have a ras pi 3b+ for the hub. i have pi zero for camera in a separate room.

Can i run motioneyeos as well as AssistantPI (google assistant with alexa built into one). can i do that?

 

AssistantPI code for reference:

I'm not quite sure what you're asking, but I believe you can have the pi zero connected to one camera and upload the images or video to the hub (pi3) while running another project on it. You can also connect an external HD for storage on the pi3. You didn't mention if you have the pi zero W or not, if you don't you have no way of connecting it to a network without some kind of USB NIC device.
