Today we got a first look at iWatchLife's just-announced partnership with Samsung Techwin. The new service pairs the Samsung SmartCam SNH-1011 with iWatchLife's cloud-based server to provide all the home-monitoring data your paranoid heart requires. Sure, motion-detection systems are nothing new, but the distinction here is that you can record intelligently; specify the areas you'd like to watch, and iWatchLife software will report back when activity happens in these -- and only these -- areas. The company notes that this saves bandwidth, and it also means you won't be hunting through hours of infrared footage looking for possible intruders on your front lawn.
