Here is the web site that I got the security camera from, believe the total cost was $79, which included a motion detector camera and a third part to connect to the VCR if I wanted to record it. The VCR shuts down when there is no movement. The buzzer I just bought at Sam's and can't remember what the cost was. Believe it was less than $100.

I have been trying to figure a way to do something like this. A camera can send pictures to a computer via WI-FI and possible trigger an audio source. The audio could be a variety of things from a chime to an alarm ringing. $200 is not bad. Keith Re: Driveway Alarm Posted by: "RJ" rjf...@verizon.net Date: Mon Jan 18, 2010 8:48 am ((PST)) Dan, I have such a system. A alarm and a security camera transmits the pictures to the receiving unit. Under $200 for the set up. was RJ ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Rossi To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, January 18, 2010 10:54 Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Driveway Alarm Hey Paul, Why don't you also investigate some computer vision stuff with face recognition. That way, not only does it let you know that someone has entered your driveway, but it can tell you who it is.
