Help me for a motion detection system
hi friends!
my advance project for the final semester of software engineering is an intruder detection system which is based on motion detection. I'm using a web camera in order to capture the images sequently and let them to process for further checking to see the difference.
first of all i want to know, is this possible in vb.net (image processing)? if it is possible, please give me some ideas about this to start.
(i have a brief imagination about the structure but i'm not sure about the success )
thanks in advance

It would probably be a good idea to obtain an SDK...

Motion detection with a camera is not as simple as it might seem. It sounds easy to compare two images to see if they're different but lighting can change between the samples meaning that the samples are very different even though nothing has moved. Some inspection systems use cameras like that and they're jolly expensive.
I think I'd be looking at something simpler such as infra red motion detectors. These have a digital line that goes high if it detects something. So I'd use IR to detect movement and then take a snapshot with the camera just to keep as evidence. Some cameras have an IR sensor allowing the software to start recording if the IR detects motion.

On sparkfun no so many weeks ago there was a guy who made a curtain that moved on motion. http://www.sparkfun.com/news/464
You can dl his code here: http://www.niklasroy.com/project/88/...ece-of-privacy
