canopy Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Are there phones available that work in day and darkness at night with infrared included that send an SMS picture when motion is detected?I ran across the Nokia PT-6 which seems a good fit, but it seems to be discontinued.

siamect Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Any IP camera should be able to do what you need... but that's maybe not what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, I didn't know that any IP camera can send SMS messages and have infrared. Thank you for your thoughtful post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, more expensive IP cameras can have infra red. IP cameras are developed with home security in mind, phones are developed with phone calls in mind. Yes you may get a phone that can do it but why not get the right tool for the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canopy Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Yes you may get a phone that can do it but why not get the right tool for the job. I couldn't agree more. That is why I am absolutely not interested in a home brew job sorting out a mess of ip camera, network topogology, computer, surveillance software, drivers, infrared, setup work, debugging, and more. And then the unacceptable downsides like turning off or repairing the computer killing the surveillance system. It is surprising no one has managed to recommend a simple, elegant and standalone device designed for surveillance. Such devices do exist outside of Thailand such as minisimcam.com.

Some people get more help than others and usually there are reasons for that... but I'll give you one more and that's just because I'm in a good mode... So type google.com and then ipcamera and click images. You will find that the most of them have IR and firmware to distribute your pics to wherever you want, even running stand alone... It's not difficult to setup, even I have done it a few times... Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
