Sensors

[loadedmind]

Hey all. So you know, my background is IT so I'm a self-admitted geek. I'm wondering if any of you have bookmarked resources for researching sensors. I'm looking for two things - 1) a garage sensor that can email me if tripped and 2) the same type of sensor for the cubicle so that if someone enters the cube while I'm not there, I'll receive an email notification. Any/all help would be extremely appreciated.

I think you're more looking for a usb camera with motion detecting software...

Something else "loadedmind", I know at least with the Iphone you can hook it up for FREE with some of these cameras and watch it live. I am sure the other phones have those capabilities also. Something to think about also. I would like to get something like that for my house.

Marinas are notorious for nosey peeps. Especially those that don't have live-aboards around.
