Hi Guys
My trailer is my mobile man-cave - it holds my bicycles, motorbikes etc. I need to stop f**kers from stealing my toys. I don't want to set off an alarm *after* someone has broken in and damaged the doors etc. I'd like to be able to detect them as they touch the trailer *before* they try to enter. I'd obviously want to prevent false alarms.
I am thinking of an Arduino-controlled anti-theft system. But I am trying to decide on right sensors. Touching a metal surface must create an electrical field / small current drain / change in voltage. I can't seem to find something suitable.
Suggestions appreciated.
Thanks.
