Did you know that burglars often come right up to the front door of a home and knock to make sure no one is home before robbing a house? Maybe it would make sense to install a security camera that monitors door activity. It’s a “virtual digital camcorder with motion sensing activation that allows you to capture high resolution video and audio of any visitor.”
The door cam is easy for a DIY type to install, too, because there’s no wiring involved. It mounts in the peephole in your door, so thieves can’t even see it from the outside. But from inside, you can see exactly what’s happening on your front porch. The camera doesn’t record 24/7, which would be a waste of batteries, but instead detects motion and turns on, automatically starting recording only when someone approaches. It has an LCD screen you can look at, or you can take the captured video, which is recorded on a SD memory card (similar to what your digital camera uses), and load it onto your computer.
