AI Detection

  • Will the camera detect cars and animals?

    In most cases, the camera can capture motion from most types of cars and animals.

According to our research, a car’s exhaust or the body heat emitted by many animals is usually around 97.7°F (36.5°C) or higher, which can trigger the camera and their motion will be captured. Users can choose to exclude cars or animals from detection by changing the “AI Detection” option to “Humans Only”, so unwanted recordings and notifications can be reduced.
