1. A system for providing multimedia information from a location of a detected intrusion to a particular mobile device associated with the location, the system comprising:
- a motion detector;
a camera operatively connected to said motion detector, said camera being activated by said motion detector in order to capture image data once motion has been detected by said motion detector;
a communication interface for receiving the captured image data from said camera and providing it to a remote location;
a computer associated with said remote location for receiving the provided image data and determining the location of the detected intrusion, said computer determining the particular mobile device associated with the location;
said computer being programmed to reformat the provided image data for display on the particular mobile device determined, based on format characteristics particular to the particular mobile device; and
said computer further programmed to transmit the reformatted image data to the particular mobile device.

Abstract
A system and method are provided for remotely providing multimedia information to a user, which allows the user to evaluate whether an intrusion has occurred. More particularly, image and/or other information is captured in response to the detection of motion in a monitored area. Additionally, at least one of image information and audio information is, ultimately, formatted for viewing and/or listening on a particular mobile device of the user, based on the particular characteristics of that device, and provided to the user, in that format.

14. A method for providing multimedia information from a location of a detected intrusion to a particular mobile device associated with the location, the method comprising the steps of:
-
detecting motion at the location; capturing image data in response to the detection of motion at the location; communicating the captured image data to a remote location; determining, at the remote location, a particular mobile device associated with the location; reformatting the image data for display on the determined particular mobile device, based on format characteristics particular to the particular mobile device; and transmitting the reformatted image data to the particular mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A system for providing multimedia information from a location of a detected intrusion to a particular mobile device associated with the location, the system comprising:
-
a motion detector; an audio capture device operatively connected to said motion detector, said audio capture device being activated by said motion detector in order to capture audio data once motion has been detected by said motion detector; a communication interface for receiving the captured audio data from said camera and providing it to a remote location; a computer associated with said remote location for receiving the provided audio data and determining the location of the detected intrusion, said computer determining the particular mobile device associated with the location; said computer being programmed to reformat the provided audio data for replay on the particular mobile device determined, based on format characteristics particular to the particular mobile device; and said computer further being programmed to transmit the reformatted audio data to the particular mobile device.
