Title: Need an Idea
Post by: brad- on September 25, 2006, 10:28:17 PM

I need an idea for a project.  I need to use home automation in some form or fashion, and tweak it...ie give it a little wrinkle.

For example, I was going to have my security cam email me when the motion sensor trips.  However, I have had a heck of a time finding the right hardware.  I have development experience in .NET, and was wondering if anyone could come up with a cool idea that I might be able to do over the weekend/couple of weeks.

Great community by way.  First time poster!  Woohoo!

I don't want to do all of your homework for you   ;)  , but how about voice control / response for a "twist"?

If it sounds like a winner, see my site at: http://www.wgjohns.com/bxvc.htm
