I have used *motion* to do this. It works with any kind of webcam

with built in web server). Motion constantly monitors images looking
for motion events and logs events to disk. Another option will create
movies of the events.
I used it to catch hooligans steal lawn ornaments, for example.

Nice one - I was looking to implement something similar - shame it
couldn't be hooked up to an 'Aliens' Sentry Machine Gun to 'pop a cap in
their ass' at the same time!
