ORIGINAL: FourQ Oddly enough G2 I was thinking about getting an active RFID system linked to the garage door opener with the trigger being the flash button on the bike. The issue would then be turning the alarm off in the house before opening the garage door, so by getting the right alarm system (£1,200/$1,750) and linking the whole system up to the home automation server I could flash the lights at the garage, disable the alarm, open the garage, turn the lights on in the house and unlock the front door. Sixty seconds later the garage door would close. If I still drank coffee the perculator could spring to life, I could have the TV turn on if I wanted to, have music play, you get the idea. Keeping security in mind, if the bike was ever nicked a simple e-mail to the BMS server would delete the bike's RFID tag number from the system meaning they might get the bike but nothing in the house. Of course, as VND says, I still couldn't get blown. (All of this is available today).
