That's been a dream of mine for a long time. I don't think there's anything quite like we want just yet.

However, there is a super cool open source project from the author of GKrellM (remember that from the ancient days of Linux?). He's using the Pi's built-in hardware video coder to get high quality motion detection very cheaply. The basic idea seems to be, when the encoder produced a lot of bits, there must have been some motion in the frame.
