Monitoring systems are very important in our daily life. Monitoring systems exist in airports, banks, offices and even in our homes to keep us secure. A monitoring system based on an MSN messenger that can detect moving objects has been developed. We have designed a smart server using the software agent technology which integrates an MSN Autoresponder, an authority manager, a moving objects detector and a streaming media encoder into a powerful PC to implement the auto-reply, the authority, the active alert and the remote monitoring functions. By using the remote video surveillance and MSN communication technologies, the remote clients can monitor the cameras. The location of the remote clients may be anywhere in the world, provided that there is an MSN Messenger.
