Description

Motion sensors as part of a burglar alarm system help protect the perimeter from intrusion and damage to property in residential buildings, offices, public places, etc. 
The work of the motion sensor of the security system is to fix the infrared sensor of thermal radiation that comes from a person. When the detector detects an object in motion, the Fresnel lens transmits a signal to the photocell, and the circuit is completed. The motion sensor sends an alarm signal to the alarm central to confirm the incident, which informs the users of the system and activates the detectors. Presence sensors are installed outdoors and indoors, depending on the type of device. Some motion detectors are equipped with cameras to acknowledge alarms. With the help of sensors with a photo or video verification, false alarms can be avoided.

New standard on intrusion detection

MotionCam has a built-in camera that takes photos once the detector is triggered. It needs just 9 seconds to show the actual situation on the scene. With visual evidence available in Ajax apps, the security company can quickly check whether the threat is real to respond accordingly. Photo verification relieves users of unnecessary anxiety and security companies of false patrol calls.

Pet immunity

Up to 2,000 m

range of communication with an Ajax hub

Strict Privacy

MotionCam takes photos only in case of an alarm. The detector software architecture does not support on-demand photos. Only users with access to the event feed in Ajax apps can see the photo.

Software filter against false alarms

Detailed event log

The event log records 500 recent events within the system. The data is explicit with the device, time, and event description. It helps reconstruct the actual event and find the causes to obtain comprehensive information for the police or an insurance company.
