Motion detection "app"/driver

OK, got the 7" proximity sensor to kick-off the bookmark with the porch cam. Now what? It needs to work in reverse but there is no programming for no motion, only motion at the sensor. Also, there needs to be a media flag in there somewhere.

^Cool...I didn't know there was a"proximity sensor".. Unreal...your on to it..way to go..how reliable is the proximity sensor?... :)

Very reliable. But, here's the rub, there is no way I can see to squelch multiple triggers of the bookmark as long as you are in-range of the sensor.

^ So what happens..does the image go off when you move away or something?..

Well, yes but that is because I've got the screen saver set to 15 sec. The bookmark/cam image blanks for a split second as the program script re-executes. I've done programming to eliminate repetitive running of a scripts but this one is a little different.

Thanks for trying this for me.. I plan on getting the new TS's if they can do this.. I assume they would have the same proximity sensor..

I can't for the life of me understand why they wouldn't already have an automatic default cam feed screensaver set up already.. but lets not go there :lol: ..

OK, well got basic functionality roughed-in. Just a simple 1 minute timer started on initial proximity stops the refresh of the screen. Need to add some more programming goodies to fine tune it. This will work fine for wall units not near seating. Bell rings, get up walk near the in-wall and bam, there it is.

Here's some music to listen too on "the quest"

"Outside the Wall":

"All alone, or in twos

The ones who really love you

Walk up and down outside the wall

Some hand in hand

Some gathering together in bands

The bleeding hearts and the artists

Make their stand

And when they've given you their all

Some stagger and fall..after all it's not easy

Banging your heart against some mad bugger's Wall......"

Pink Floyd. The Wall. 1979

You are breaking down "the Wall" my friend. You ROCK!!

Comfortably numb Pink Floyd The Wall

"There is no pain, you are receding

A distant ship's smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves

Your lips move

But I can't hear what you are saying

When I was a child

I caught a fleeting glimpse

Out of the corner of my eye

I turned to look but it was gone

I cannot put my finger on it now

The child has grown

The dream is gone

I.......Have become comfortably numb"
