iAlertU is the first of its kind alarm system for your Apple MacBook computer.  Basically iAlertU is a car alarm for your Apple Mac. iAlertU uses the built in sudden motion sensor (SMS) device to detect movement of your Apple MacBook and triggers an audible and visual alarm.  The alarm can also be triggered by keyboard and mouse/trackpad movement.  The alarm is designed to continue sounding even after the Apple MacBook screen has been closed.  iAlertU is activated and deactivated using the infrared remote control included with every Apple MacBook computer.  User adjustable settings let you decide which type of alarm triggers you would like to use, the duration of the alarm, and motion sensor sensitivity.  iAlertU also features functionality which utilizes the built in iSight camera to photograph the would be thief and then email the photo to a user specified email address.
