Clear Footage 24/7
Infrared sensors illuminate scenes the human eye can’t see, capturing crisp images even at 0 lux. Full-colour night-vision models (e.g., ColorVu) use low-light lenses plus warm LEDs so faces, licence plates, and clothing colours stay identifiable after sunset.
Immediate Intrusion Alerts
Built-in motion analytics recognise a person crossing your driveway or climbing a fence and ignore swaying trees or wandering pets. Real-time push notifications let you view a live clip and speak through two-way audio before an intruder reaches the doorway.
Less Storage, Longer History
Motion-triggered recording cuts dead-air footage. Pair it with smart H.265+ to reduce bandwidth by up to 70 %, extending a 2 TB NVR from 20 days to almost two months without sacrificing image quality.
Active Deterrence
Some cameras combine PIR motion sensors with white-light flood LEDs or a 110 dB siren. The sudden spotlight and audible warning startle would-be burglars and alert neighbours, boosting perimeter protection without extra hardware.
Evidence That Holds Up
Timestamped clips with metadata (motion event ID, IR on/off flag) provide courts and insurers a clear chain of custody. Higher frame rates (20–25 fps) maintain smooth playback, preventing disputes over “blurry” images.
Energy Efficiency
IR LEDs consume only a few watts; coupled with auto-sleep when no movement is detected, the system draws minimal power versus round-the-clock floodlighting.
Privacy Zones & Scheduling
Define motion windows—e.g., exclude public sidewalks or your neighbour’s yard—and schedule alerts only between 11 p.m. – 6 a.m. This reduces nuisance messages while still guarding your property during vulnerable hours.
Seamless Smart-Home Integration
Night-vision motion events can trigger other devices:
Turn on smart porch lights for package deliveries
Send snapshots to a private Telegram channel
Activate an autogate lockdown if someone loiters near the entrance for more than 10 seconds
