The Eye Trax solar powered wireless motion activated camera system utilizes an integrated passive infrared sensor that measure changes in thermal activity in the camera viewing area. A passive infrared sensor (PIR) creates an invisible thermal grid in front of the outdoor camera viewing area. Once this thermal grid is disturbed with an introduction of a new thermal profile, the camera will trigger and in less than half of a second and start taking pictures. Change in thermal activity can be presented by a warm or cold body object, as long as its temperature is different then what the motion security camera see as “normal” or “ambient”. Typically a human, vehicle, or animal will cause the motion activated camera to trigger. This process of triggering the motion detection camera is called an “EVENT”. All events captured by the wireless motion activated camera are time & location stamped. All pictures are then immediately sent over the secure cellular network to the Eye Trax cloud servers. These events can also be delivered to any mobile phone or email in the matter of seconds.
It is important to understand the differences in motion activated camera systems on the market. Most other motion detection camera systems use a method of change in pixels in the viewing area as their trigger. This method is most common because it does not require the motion detection camera manufacturer to incorporate a sensor into their system. This kind of pixel change to create a trigger is 100% software driven. When the viewfinder in the motion activated camera sees a percentage change in pixel color it considers this an event. This type of trigger causes MANY FALSE ALARMS because ANYTHING that changes in front of the motion activated camera is considered an event! This event could be the wind blowing leaves on the trees or trash blowing around a construction site. When the motion activated camera creates this many false alarms, the End User has the tendency not to be as alert to the picture activity because they receive so many false alarms thus reducing the accountability of the entire motion sensor security camera system.
Eye Trax considered this into the design of the solar powered wireless motion activated camera with night vision system. When discussing the importance of wireless outdoor security cameras, the design team at Eye Trax considered what the End User would be most concerned about when monitoring security in remote locations. Most End Users of outdoor security camera systems would like to know when a human, vehicle, or animal is present in front of the motion activated camera. These types of warm body objects are what the End Users would like to immediately see and document for purposes of security!
The motion activated camera can be programmed to turn on the motion sensor when the sun goes down for night time working as a night vision security camera or operate 24/7. If in 24/7 mode and the End User is only concerned about events at night (6pm-6am) there is also a setting on the User Interface for “night time notification”.
The solar powered wireless motion activated camera system offers four modes for acquiring motion activated events which can be programmed at any time of the camera’s deployment from the User Interface or mobile app:
Burst Mode – Produces a grouping of 5 pictures at 5 seconds apart.
5 Minute – Produces a single picture every 5 minutes as long as motion continues.
10 Minute – Produces a single picture every 10 minutes as long as motion continues.
15 Minute – Produces a single picture every 15 minutes as long as motion continues.
The Burst Mode is best used in high security situations where every picture is of most importance. The 5, 10, and 15 minute modes are best used in semi secure situation where motion is common and the End User Simply would like to know when activity is present and when they leave the area.
