WebCam Motion Detector

WebCam Motion Detector is a software application which was developed in order to support both wireless and wired web cameras, and take pictures when movement is detected.

This tool is portable, meaning you can easily bypass the installation process. If you drop the program files to a portable storage unit (e.g. USB flash drive), you can use WebCam Motion Detector on any computer you have access to, by simply double-clicking the executable.

Aside from that, it is important to keep in mind that the Windows registry and Start menu are not going to suffer any changes, and there will be no leftover files upon the utility's removal from the hard drive.

The interface is plain, being comprised of only a menu bar and a panel in which to display the live feed from the web camera. It becomes apparent that any type of person can learn how to work with it, even those with little to no previous experience with computers.

In order to start surveying your house or office building, you are required to choose the local capture device you want to use, and just let the app do the rest. You should also know you can open AVI files with it.

There are five types of enhancing motion on the live feed which you can choose from, and you can also save picture on motion and enable the alarm. Help contents are not provided, yet seeing how simple it is to use this tool, we can safely say they are not actually required.

To sum up, WebCam Motion Detector is an efficient piece of software, which does not put a strain on your computer's performance, as it uses minimal CPU and memory.
