How many times do you tell your kids to stay further back from the TV? "Sit on the coach and watch" or "don't sit too close to the TV ... you will ruin your eyes." Well, I know I do that on various occasions. When their favorite movie or TV show is playing, it grabs their attention and it draws them closer to the TV like flies. How can control that?
Imagine, the TV is equipped with a motion IR sensor - like the ones on motion detectors for security alarms. When a person is too close to the TV (set any distance you prefer), the sensor will turn the TV off. Of course, you can make it more elaborate by giving early warning or some indication so people have a chance to go back.
This is just a simple way to keep kids back without parents being on their case all the time...
That is it for now...

What about a pet walking and/or sitting in front of the TV?
