6.3 Recording Modes

The camera offers advanced recording modes to optimize battery life and capture important events.

  • AOV 24/7 Record Mode: This mode uses AI-powered adaptive power management. It records at a low frame rate (1 frame/sec) in static scenes and switches to a high frame rate when motion is detected, ensuring continuous surveillance with minimal energy consumption.
  • PIR Motion Detection: The camera utilizes a highly sensitive PIR motion sensor and radar detection to reduce false alarms. When motion is detected, the camera quickly wakes up (in 0.2 seconds) and captures all human movements, sending notifications to your smartphone.
