(10-14-2009) Motion detection example


The last few days I've been working on a passable version of motion detection. Here is a sample of my attempt. It still needs some more features, like the ability to block out certain areas from detection (like the television in the background of the picture). Another piece of the home-automation puzzle is done. This current version only works with a weird camera (IP Kamera), so adding support for other cameras will be coming.

If you're looking for a turn-key solution for web-cams and with good motion detection, I recommend WebCam XP. It's a great software product, but it was a little lacking on Home Automation features, so I had to roll-my-own in this case.
