By tweaking the capabilities of these superspies; Web cams, can be used as motion detectors that will take photos or video of anyone (or anything) that happens to be moving within their view.
Set them up for remote access and you'll be able to check in from wherever you are and even ask them to send you an e-mail alert to your pager or cell-phone and tell you that your camera has detected motion and can even send you a photo or video clip. You may wish to have your pictures uploaded to an off-site location. Even if the equipment is stolen, you will have photos to give the authorities.
Remote-access features can be useful for many purposes. Parents who wish to know what time their children are returning from school or those with children under the care of others may be interested in remotely checking in throughout the day. Or; you may wish to ensure that your home or office aren't being visited by people who aren't supposed to be there.
Wireless video cameras, provide even more options. Mount a wireless video camera close to your door or windows and you'll be able to see who is ringing the doorbell without having to leave whatever you are doing. Imagine -- no more interuptions from unwelcome visitors.
Inexpensive Web cams now mean that security systems which previously cost thousands of dollars can now provide incredible security for you home or other premises at a realistic cost.

Recent developments allow users to access their cameras through wireless devices such as Internet-enabled Palm handhelds, web enabled phones and Pocket PCs.
You can even select the level of sensitivity, from stringent settings that will detect very slight motion, to more lax settings that will prevent false alarms and only detect motion that is bigger than your pet. Use the handy scheduler and select which times of the day you would wish the camera to be active.
Even if it's something as simple as satisfying your curiosity regarding what your pets are doing while you're away, using Web cams as security devices can be a lot of fun. It can also provide invaluable peace of mind for the safety of your family and your possessions.
Wireless versions are available that let you relocate your camera at different times of day. (Even from room to room without any trailing wires).
