I thought I'd put this to the best geeks I know
I moved into a new appartment last week, and I really want to setup a video surveillance system. I need suggestions on how to do it, and of course, cheaply!
Here are the details:
-the appartment is on the second floor. There is a window (conveniently to the computer room) from which I can setup a camera, that oversees the stairs leading up to our place.
-I have no desire to run a continuous video log. Instead, I'd be quite happy with either a few pics, or a short video clip, that would be recorded following a trigger, possibly an infrared beam (which I could also install).
Does anyone have any advice on how to do this?
