Emulated sound and movement to reduce the chance of crime

I cannot locate the name of this toy or decoration at the moment, but it is a ring of paperdoll like characters that circle like a carousel around a propellor at the center of the ring. The divice is attached to the top of a conventional Edison bulb type lamp; the rising heat from the lamp spins the propellor and the sihouettes, cast shadows around the room.

A modern version of this could be produced using inexpensive new projector technology, mounted on a powered, timered, variable speed lazy susan like device, all connectied to a very basic computer that would supply a variety of ever changing animated human, pet, other images (such as ladders, boards pales and so on that would make it appear construction was going on). These animated images would be cast on the walls and windows of a home or commercial structure.

This device in combination with TV and radio noise, pet and people noises, and recorded sounds of the goings on of the kind that normally occurs in the particular structure. would offer one more reason for a criminal to skip your building; victims of multiple burglaries would understand this well.

The device is particulary suited for frequently unoccupied structures. The sound does the work in the day; the sounds and images work at night.
