Applications
The IR Pod can be used to control a multitude of devices to fit into many different applications
Commercial
Use it with ICU Security's DVMD-1/2/3/4 or MotionCam to trigger an IR device whenever movement is detected.
Turn a Standard VCR into an alarm event recorder for the CCTV industry. No longer is an expensive Time-Lapse Recorder required. You no longer need to record continuously. Just alarm events generated by a motion detector (Such as: video or PIR, door contacts, pressure mats, window foil, beam-cross detectors, etc.) will be recorded.

Residential
Turn on the coffee pot when you enter the kitchen. (This needs an X-10 home automation module.)
Play a welcome message at your office lobby. The VCR starts and stops automatically. Triggered by a motion detector or door contact.
When you are away on vacation, turn on your audio system when somebody approaches your house. (Maybe even a tape of a dog barking, etc.)
Automatically watch your baby on the TV set when he or she wakes up, even while you are watching your favorite show. (You will need a motion detector, such as one of ICU Security's many available units.)
When your kids approach the swimming pool, display the video image on your TV.
Set up a neighborhood watch system with a standard camcorder, to record only moving events.
Record an earthquake, using a mercury-switch as a stimulus.
Record a few seconds of every car entering your parking lot.
Control the Mute of your TV when your telephone rings.
The list goes on & on …;..  use your imagination to dream up your own uses!
