Abstract
One embodiment provides a method including: detecting, using a motion detection device, a movement at a first location; responsive to the detecting, turning on at least one light source at the first location; and responsive to the detection, turning on at least one other light source at a second location; wherein the first location is separately networked from the second location. Other aspects are described and claimed.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- detecting, using a motion detection device, a movement of a threat at a first location, wherein the first location is associated with a first structure, wherein the threat defines a center point within a radius;
- responsive to the detecting, turning on at least one light source at the first location;
- and
- responsive to the detecting, turning on at least one other light source at a second location within the radius of the threat, wherein the second location is associated with a second structure separate from the first structure and the turning on of the at least one other light source at a second location is based upon the movement at the first location and the center point and the radius are dynamically adjusted based upon a location of the threat as the threat moves;
- wherein the first location is separately networked from the second location.

An information handling device, comprising:
- a processor;
- a motion detection device;
- a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processor to:
- detect, using the motion detection device, a movement of a threat at a first location, wherein the first location is associated with a first structure, wherein the threat defines a center point within a radius;
- responsive to the detecting, turn on at least one light source at the first location;
- and
- responsive to the detection, turn on at least one other light source at a second location within the radius of the threat, wherein the second location is associated with a second structure separate from the first structure and the turning on of the at least one other light source at a second location is based upon the movement at the first location and the center point and the radius are dynamically adjusted based upon a location of the threat as the threat moves;
- wherein the first location is separately networked from the second location.
5 more elements
A product, comprising:
- a storage device having code stored therewith, the code being executable by a processor and comprising:
- code that detects, using a motion detection device, a movement of a threat at a first location, wherein the first location is associated with a first structure, wherein the threat defines a center point within a radius;
- code that responsive to the detecting, turns on at least one light source at the first location;
- and
- code that responsive to the detection, turns on at least one other light source at a second location within the radius of the threat, wherein the second location is associated with a second structure separate from the first structure and the turning on of the at least one other light source at a second location is based upon the movement at the first location and the center point and the radius are dynamically adjusted based upon a location of the threat as the threat moves;
- wherein the first location is separately networked from the second location.
