iCam iPhone App Alerts Man To Burglary In His Own Home
With the help of iCam (webcam video streaming) a home owner out of town, watched as his home was invaded by two intruders who set off the motion alert setting as they threw a brick through a glass door to gain access.
As the desperate home owner watched on his iPhone from 1400 miles away he urgently called 911 and watched as armed police officers arrived on the scene. That’s proof if it was ever needed that iCam really does work and for the cost of $4.99 who can argue. It is possible to even set the software to take actual photographic images when motion triggers the system. This would be great used for evidence if the police can catch them.
