Breakfast gone, out they ran across the garden and up the ladder, Toby was first into the lab, or at least his head was. Stopping at the top of the ladder his sister almost running into his feet. “Come on Toby!” she said, “What’s keeping you?”
In the middle of the floor was an open flight case, the kind used for transporting delicate electronic equipment. There was nothing stopping Toby from continuing, but he just wanted to take in the view of what must be the world’s coolest toy-box.
“If you don’t get moving, I’ll drag you out of the way!” scolded Sam, starting to lose patience.
Toby snapped out of his dreamworld and the two of them bundled into the tree-house. Sam and Toby just stared at the case, hardly able to recognise anything that was in it. It all looked so expensive that they were afraid to touch anything. Then Toby spotted something familiar and reaching into the case pulled out a pair of binoculars.
“These are not all that hi-tech,” he said as he brought them to his eyes, “They don’t even work.”
“Try turning them on!” said Sam looking up from the manual.
They found the on switch and the binoculars seemed to go into a boot-up sequence, and after a few seconds of buzzing and beeping, a menu flashed up “…..Select Frequency….”
“Frequency?” puzzled Toby, “They’re binoculars, not a radio!”
Sam was quickly scanning through the manual, “It’s asking you for the light frequency! You can see all sorts of light through them, from infra-red all the way up to lasers in the invisible light spectrum. There’s even a setting for electromagnetic radiation.”
“Electro-what now?” countered Toby.
“It says here that with the binoculars set to electromagnetic radiation, you can see electricity by looking through them,” explained Sam.
Toby selected EMR on the binoculars and looking out the window down at the garage, the eye pieces filled with glowing white whereever there was electricity flowing. It showed the wires running under the garden to the garage, and the glow of the computer stations in the basement ‘workshop’.
“What’s that?” Toby paused, “There’s something over the garage door, wait, there’s another over the window!” Toby zoomed in for a closer look, “Granddad has those sensors that Mum always gives out about, you know the ones that turn on the yard lights every time a cat walks by, and it looks like the sensors are activated.”
Sam was already tapping in the details to a touchscreen tablet that she had found in the case, “It looks like they are PIR sensors, ‘Passive Infra-Red’.”
“Does it say anything about how to get passed them?” asked Toby.
“They trigger an alarm when they detect body heat,” Sam replied, “Granddad is not making it easy for us.”
“I’ve got it!” said Toby, “If we hang bags of ice in front of each sensor, and then it will block the heat from our bodies reaching them?”
“That could work”, said Sam, “but where are we going to get bags of ice before lunch, and how do we hang
