Don't leave anything out

MotionCam Outdoor captures insightful images in any condition, day or night, by fusing the best lenses, a quick CPU, and cutting-edge software algorithms.

Multilayered anti-sabotage defence

Even if the system is disarmed, MotionCam Outdoor cannot be disabled. Masking sensors in the detector react when the lens is blocked, covered, or painted. The hub will identify the loss of contact with the detector in less than a minute. It will alert the owner and a central monitoring station. The fact that MotionCam Outdoor was compromised will be reported immediately.

Reliable protection in every condition

MotionCam Outdoor can endure temperatures as high as +60 °C and as low as -25 °C. We also added a unique hood to shield the anti-masking system's sensors from snow and rain.

Absolute communication stability

MotionCam Outdoor simultaneously employs the Wings and Jeweler secure radio protocols. Each radio protocol has its own specific purpose and operates independently of the other. Wings allows Jeweler to send alarms in less than 0.15 seconds, and the first shot from the site will appear in the app in under 9 seconds.

The radio signal range is sufficient to place the detector in the most effective location. Additionally, a battery life of up to 3 years reduces maintenance requirements.

Alarms that sound instantly. Verified.

From the moment a person enters an unauthorized area, MotionCam Outdoor identifies the intrusion and confirms it with series of images. Visual confirmation makes it possible to assess the situation quickly, relieving users of their worries and security firms of sending needless patrols.

Smart false alarm filter

MotionCam Outdoor has two separate PIR sensors, and a two-step LISA algorithm is used to analyse their data. When both sensors detect motion, LISA correlates and analyses the signals to quickly discern between genuine threats and interference.

Correlational research

When MotionCam Outdoor senses motion, LISA instantly examines and contrasts the data patterns from two different sensors. The alarm is set off if the forms are similar.

Spectral evaluation

LISA examines frequency components in the signals of the two sensors when they both detect motion, but the correlational analysis fails to find enough similarities.

Real-Time Monitoring of Protected Area

The system users can monitor their protected area in real-time and clear up any uncertainties they may have without waiting for an alarm. By opening the app and selecting the detector, users can easily check the situation in their yard within seconds.

Reducing Anxiety with Accurate Detection

Outdoor motion detectors can be prone to false alarms due to the complex environment they operate in, including natural sources. With MotionCam Outdoor PhOD, system users and monitoring station operators can quickly verify the legitimacy of an alarm within seconds, reducing the number of false alarms and providing a more accurate response.

Elevated Security Standards

Motion detectors should provide a clear understanding of what is happening on the premises in the event of an alarm, both for system users and the rapid response unit. The detector will indicate how many criminals are still approaching the premises and whether they are armed. This information helps security patrols prepare and users avoid potential danger.

All the Proof you Need

MotionCam Outdoor PhOD offers a convenient way to provide law enforcement with evidence of intruders through a series of animated photos, allowing for a quick and efficient response. Even in complete darkness, MotionCam Outdoor's PhOD IR backlight ensures that intruders are captured in detail, increasing the chances of catching burglars in the act.

It is in the app

Installation engineers can save the most time possible by connecting and setting MotionCam Outdoor. All you need to do to add a detector to the system is scan the QR code with the Ajax app and give it a name and room. Real-time device configuration, communication, and detection zone testing are all possible in the app. Without having to physically visit the site, the detector's system parameters can be remotely changed or disabled as needed.
