    Web cam detect persone in room.

    Hi,
    I have been working for the last year or so on a pc that controls my room(lights, apliences,...) and i still haven't found a way of detecting if someone walks in or out of the bedroom. So my question is: If i put a web cam in my bedroom pointing at the door, can i analise the video with vb and detect if someone comes in or out if the room? And how?

    Thanx in advance!

    Mr Smither.
    he is a good friend that speaks well of us behind our backs

    ofcourse you can!

    the logic of detecting any movement in camera's view are the pixel changes in your current snapshot/picture to the normal state of your room.

    normal state - the first frame captured by your camera when it wakes up for the first time.
    current state - are the frames interrupting at an interval. u may use timers for this.

    interest controls curiosity.
    conscience controls karma.
    you alone can control yourself.
    know yourself and be above those who are lost.

    The second link that I have posted mentions about the two ideas.
