Some people just can't resist the temptation to prank an unlocked keyboard. This locks your screen with a transparent window that will play an alarm and snap a video if anyone touches it. Quit by pressing a Control key.

Requires Python, PyQt4, and cv2. Basic usage:

cd camtrap
./camtap.py

To set the trap, make a keyboard shortcut to locktrap which disables the current screen saver, starts camtrap, then locks the screen when camtrap exits.
