I've been contemplating a computer-controlled/recorded video monitoring system in my home.

I would like a few wireless-signal video cameras to install around the house and have them somehow connect back to my computer which would record upon motion sensing. Sound is not necessary but it would be cool if it wouldn't cost much extra. Resolution isn't very important, as long as it's large enough to recognize someone's face.

Do any of you guys have any experience and/or reccomendations as to what products I should/could use for these applications?
 
Don't buy any wireless X10 crap. Go get an Ebay Geovision DVR suveralliance card with 4 or 8 ports depending on how many cameras you need. Wired cameras will be cheaper and I think you'd be better served in getting wired. The software that comes will all Geovision cards is excellent, it will allow you to setup schedules, motion capture, email images, remote view, etc, etc, etc, I can't list all it's features. I'm currently setting up a comptuer based suervalliance system also with a Geovision GV800, very cool stuff. Watch for fake cards on Ebay tho.
 
Awesome, so Geovision as a control center. Do you have any reccomendations for wired cameras? I'd prefer something that can see well enough in day/night, that is weatherproof, relatively small and affordable. Do you have any reccomendations?
 
Something like this might work for you. It's Infra-red so it'll work at night. From what I hear the IR picture isn't amazing, but it's good enough.
 
Well I need a simiar system to watch some kooky neighbors. I'm very much afraid they will do damage to my house. Our property line is only about 10 feet away.
Every other night there yelling & screaming to the top of there lungs at 3am with there domestic squablles. The police are called constatly and we suspect a lot of drug usage.

I would really like a security system and I thought why not wireless that could also see good at night. I'd like to set it to record like a DVR.

So, if there are more suggestions they are appreciated!
