Question: can the images you put in the tile list be saved to the harddrive instead? I wanted to motion capture my doggy door while at work, seeing what the dogs and cats do. I wanted to save the files and look at them later. To be honest, the idea popped into my head while looking at this app and I have not looked into it at all, just being lazy. Nice apps you've done and I will be using some of them in the near future. Gary Doug, this is nice and I keep learning knew stuff, being new to Flex.

(being the one who inquired of Doug about the motion detection). I wound up writing a small app using activityLevel. And was going to send it to you after I posted it up to my blog. So well, here it is, a day later... http://thesaj.wordpress.com/2008/04/08/antiassassin-an-experiment-in-flexair-utilization-of-webcams/ (BTW, for whatever reason, the AIR file fails to download. I had to encapsulate it within a .zip file. Not sure why, though I believe it to be a server setting. Any one have any ideas?) Hi Doug,

You can still use this method for detecting motion in other, non webcam stuff. So you could detect motion in a FLV video, or even in a Flex chart or any UI component that has visible changes. @Grant - yeah, I actually didn’t know about Camera.activityLevel (but someone else emailed me about 5 minutes after I posted this to tell me). :P So yes, the activityLevel property of the Camera class will do this exact same thing.

For anyone interested in implementing this in a project, it's worth noting that this functionality is already built into ActionScript, via the camera.activityLevel property, which returns a value from 0-100 indicating the amount of motion in the video stream. Cheers. This is good as a learning demo.
