    Using Ultrasonic sensor from car parking kit

    photos and model number will help greatly. also for less then $2.50 you buy the part and it has an exstensive library already. so you know it will be "supported" by arduino. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/270915825002?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

    I was looking at this and thought wifi would be better too as depending on the type of router you can password the crap out of it. username and password can be hidden and rotated as security requirements change. bluetooth is a great idea as long as the only phone you want connected to the...

    Wireless switch or Rfid help??

    an infared beam accross a path is another option, like when you walk into a shop it chimes. instead of running chimes it could do what you want. another option is a pressure pad along the ground that when you step on it it turns on a device. proximity sensors could be used if you know the ins...
