I made something similar to the boxes described in the links as a final
year
project at uni. The idea was that when a courier wants to deposit a parcel,
they press a button on a control panel and that sends an email and SMS to a
number of registered users of that box. A web-cam starts recording data
locally
and streaming via the web. The user is able to login to a control panel and
see
the web-cam feed and unlock the box from a web interface or if they don't
have
web access, unlock the box using SMS. Didn't get as far as implementing the
SMS
but the infrastructure is their when I get round to updating it!
