Let's see, how to do it cheaply. PIR will wake the thing up. Easy enough to bodge a PIR sensor that operates a lamp to instead work a worm gear. Tracking is harder. Ultrasound, use two sensors, and have them each work a servo to pull the thigh's neck left and right, kinda phototropism (for the cyborg art generation?
Since the intent is not to monitor - which is difficult, sensitive and requires manpower - but to intimidate into compliance, it should be effective.
