Use the Mac as a surveillance system with FaceTime [GUIDE]

FaceTime for Mac can also be used to exploit the computer's webcam as a surveillance system and see what happens at home. Let's see how.



All you need to do is download this script (link) and run it or save it as application (File -> Save As -> Application). Once you've launched or when we call our Mac via the iPhone will open normally FaceTime on the Mac and, after a phone call, the response will be automatic!

In this way we will see what happens with the iPhone at home (of course the portion of the room framed by the iSight or other webcam connected to your Mac), without the need for anyone to answer FaceTime on the Mac itself.

Once back home it will suffice to close the script and launched the automatic answer is disabled on Mac FaceTime and everything will be as before.

Two caveats: the first is to use an ID with a Mail FaceTime they know other people in order to avoid the risk that your friends can spy on the house, the second is that, unfortunately, the tests carried out by iPhoneItalia the change does not work correctly , since once initiated the call this is immediately closed. Other users, however, report that everything works.
