How do these motion detection cameras actually sense movement?

Our motion detection cameras use a few different technologies depending on the model: PIR sensors detect body heat to spot humans, video analysis software compares frames to identify movement, and radar or microwave sensors use radio waves to sense physical motion.

Can I stop the cameras from sending me alerts every time a tree moves or a pet walks by?

Yes, you can reduce false alarms using adjustable sensitivity settings and custom detection zones, which allow you to choose specific areas to monitor while ignoring things like roads or swaying trees.

Will these cameras work at night when it is completely dark?

Yes, these cameras feature night vision that uses infrared light to capture clear movement and footage even in complete darkness.

Where can I save the footage recorded by my motion detection cameras?

You have flexible storage options depending on your preference; you can save your videos locally using an SD card or DVR, or store them online via cloud storage.
