Fake TV - (do it
yourself home security systems) Fake TV is a brand new just released Burglar Deterrent Home Security Device $37.00
Fake TV measures approximately 3 inches by 3 inches by 3 inches. It is pretty much a triangle shape and is very lightweight. Make would be burglars think you are home with Fake TV. Statistics have proven time and time again that a burglar will not enter a home that they feel is occupied. FakeTV makes burglars think you are home. Fake TV is a handy little device that is very effective because it accurately simulates the light output of a real LCD HDTV television. The effects of scene changes, fades, swells, flicks, on-screen motion and color changes look as if they came from a real television making burglars think someone is home watching tv! The potential burglar thinks the home must be occupied, so he moves on to an easier target! • Dynamic and convincing occupancy simulation • Computer controlled, super-bright multi-color LED Light output equivalent to a typical 27" TV • Consumes just the power a night-light. AC adapter included • Most televisions turn on with push buttons and do not work with timers. Burglars know this, making FakeTV very effective! • Built in light sensor turns FakeTV on each evening at dusk. Turns off automatically. Using Fake TV could not be simpler. Just place it in room so that you can see the light from the Fake TV from outside, but you cannot see the Fake TV unit itself. Plug into the wall using the included adapter. The built in light sensor will turn Fake TV on at each dusk-- no need for an external timer. New Realism in Occupancy Simulation A light on a timer is a great idea, and we still recommend that you use one. It can be seen from the street, and gives a good first impression. But timers are commonplace, and burglars know this, so a timer is not enough. Worse, lights are static but the light from a television is something entirely different. It is constantly changing, and gives the impression of "alive". Fake TV recreates that light, and recreates the impression. So why not just put a television on a timer? It will not work! Modern televisions turn on with push-buttons, so they will not turn on from an external timer. And aside from consuming a lot of power needlessly, televisions gradually get dimmer with time. Does it make sense to use up the life of an expensive TV when nobody is watching it? Of course not. The Solution is FakeTV Place Fake TV where it will light up a room, but you cannot see the Fake TV unit itself. A second floor room is ideal, but a first floor room with translucent shades or blinds works fine, too. Then, each evening at dusk Fake TV's built-in light sensor will turn the unit on. Fake TV turns off automatically after a switch-selectable time. Burglars will almost always circle a home once before entering. They are looking for the easiest way in, and looking for signs of life. Fake TV gives them just those signs! Few burglars will enter a home that they think is occupied. Quality in Every Detail

Fake TV becomes part of your home security system. Yes, it is highly functional, but it is also attractive. The opalescent diffuser lens gives a pretty glow, and the optical illusion formed by the LEDs on the screen is frankly fascinating to watch. (Although we discourage you from doing so-- it is never healthy to look at any bright light source for an extended period of time.) What if I Already Have a Burglar Alarm System? If you have an alarm system--great! You reduce your odds of a break-in even more. Thieves can really cause you much misery in a "smash and grab" robbery. You still want to make your home look occupied, and Fake TV goes a long way to creating the "somebody is home" impression. Neither Fake TV nor even an elaborate and expensive occupation simulation system (such things exist!) can guarantee you will not have a break in. But, you can make your home look occupied, and thus improve your odds, for a remarkably modest price, and with no hassle at all. How Fake TV Works When you look at a real TV, you see images on the screen. But when you look at the light it casts in a room, the light from the screen melds to a uniform glow that changes with the changing images on the television. Fake TV uses a built-in computer to control super-bright LEDs to produce light of varying intensity and color that light up a room just like a real television does. The light effects of real television programming --scene changes, camera pans, fades, flicks, swells, on-screen motion and more are all faithfully simulated by Fake TV. Just like a real TV, Fake TV fills a room with color changes, both subtle and dramatic, in thousands of possible shades. Like real television programming, Fake TV is constantly shifting among more and less dynamic periods, more vivid and more monochromatic, and brighter and darker scenes. Fake TV is completely unpredictable, and it never repeats. The effect is uncanny. From outside the home, Fake TV is essentially indistinguishable from a real television. Test subjects were not able to tell if it was Fake TV or the real thing, even when they knew it had to be one or the other. An an operating television sends the clear message to prowlers: "THIS HOME IS OCCUPIED. TRY SOMEWHERE ELSE!" It's partly about Light How does something the size of a coffee cup produce as much light as a television set many times its size? Recent advancements in LED technology have brought about "Super Bright LED's" many that are more than ten times as bright as the "plain old LED's" we are all familiar with. Fake TV packs a dozen of these technological marvels into a package that includes the computer and some well-design optics. Super Bright LED's are very expensive, but our supplier has a special partnership with Kodenshi, allowing us to offer Fake TV at a remarkably affordable price. And Partly About Random Fake TV is not just a flickering light or flasher! And neither is it just a "random light source." Yes, there are random number generators in the computer in Fake TV, and Fake TV never, ever, repeats. Real TV is not random- any more than music is random sounds. The light from TV is highly characteristic. Discovering what makes the light from a TV look like, well, the light from a TV, was the key to making Fake TV so realistic. But mostly about a really good replica! To develop Fake TV, the designers took data using real televisions of different types and makes. They characterized TV programs, analyzing the light output for intensity and color variation. They generated a lot of computer files of television data. Then, they came up with mathematical formulas that behaved just the same way. They programmed these formulas into Fake TV's computer, and ran the same tests. They tested these in the field, as well, and verified that our test subjects simply could not tell the difference between Fake TV and the real thing. Okay, they got a bit compulsive with this. Surely, no burglar has ever studied the light intensity output of a television, or measured the degree of color variation! But we human beings are remarkably good at discerning patterns and even subtle differences. They did not want to take the chance that a prowler might see the light from the television simulator and think "something is not right, there", even if he could not identify it. They kept at it until they could see, and measure, no differences. This is because an obvious simulation runs the risk of announcing the prowlers that the home is, in fact, unoccupied. They did not want to take that chance! They didn't stop with just a great imitation of TV light, either. The Fake TV unit is extremely usable. The light sensor works very well, so in most applications all you need to is plug it in, set the timer switch appropriately, and let it mislead burglars.
