The latest in home and office security protection is one of the most unique and effective methods I’ve seen yet.

Instead of setting off an alarm which people seem to just ignore, the idea is to completely blanket the protected area in a thick cloud of smoke!

There are a few companies creating these systems over in the UK, and some are starting to make their way across the pond to the US. A few suppliers are SmokeCloak, Corona Technologies, and Pea Soup.

Since it’s kind of hard to describe what actually happens when a system is set off, it’s better to watch the videos below to see actual thieves in action.
