Customize Your Motion Detection: PIR Technology
The PIR (Passive Infrared) technology in our Eagle 4G or WiFi camera, is designed to detect human motion only so you won't be bothered with unnecessary notifications from animals, cars, or other non-human movements.
With PIR technology, you can have peace of mind knowing that your camera is only alerting you to potential security threats.
-
Want to fine-tune your Eagle 4G or WiFi camera's motion detection capabilities?
It's easy! Here's how:
-
1. Open the Aywhere.Cam app and select the camera you want to adjust.
-
2. Press the pencil icon on the top right corner to access the camera settings.
-
3. Scroll down and select "PIR" (passive infrared) motion sensor.
-
4. Choose your desired sensitivity level (low, medium, or high).
How does PIR technology work?
-
PIR (Passive Infra-Red) detection is a technology used in security systems to detect movement or intruders by recognizing light emitted from nearby objects.
PIR technology detects motion by sensing changes in infrared radiation, which is emitted by objects in the camera's field of view. It's a great option because it's not affected by external factors such as light or temperature changes, providing more accurate motion detection.
And here's a bonus tip for you: you can also customize the detection alarm settings to your preference. This way you'll have your camera working just the way you want it.
