I'm toying with the idea of putting some small motion detectors throughout my house in key locations. I hope to have them all monitored by a simple micro-p. In my mind, the ideal sensor would be something like the rangefinder in poloroid cameras (small, low power, etc). Although a rangefinder might be more accurate than I need--all I really need is something that well register a change when a large (human) size movement occurs near a door or in a hall way. Does anyone have an idea of a manufacturer/model/source that might work for my purpose? Any idea what the interface is like? Any idea of price? Anybody had any luck with the idea already? Thanks in advance, Dean.
