## What is Daytripper?

Daytripper is a laser tripwire security device designed to provide physical privacy protection for computer workstations. The system consists of two components: a Transmitter (TX) and a Receiver (RX) that communicate wirelessly to detect motion within a 120cm range.

When motion is detected, the device can automatically hide all open windows, lock the computer, or execute custom scripts based on user configuration. The system operates with a scan rate of 6Hz when running on battery power and increases to 30Hz when connected to power.

The device features a rechargeable battery with 50-hour life, charged via USB-C connection. Communication between the TX and RX components has a range of up to 100 meters in open-air conditions. The tool includes configuration software that allows users to customize detection parameters and response actions.

Daytripper works natively with Windows systems out-of-the-box and maintains compatibility with other major operating systems. The device provides a physical security layer for protecting sensitive information displayed on screens when users step away from their workstations.
