4.2 Smart Person Detection and Alerts
The PoE IP cameras feature smart person detection, which minimizes false alarms by distinguishing human figures from other moving objects like bugs or leaves. When a suspicious motion is detected, the system can trigger spotlights and sirens, and send push notifications or email alerts to your device.

4.4 Dual-Lens and Auto Tracking
The cameras feature a dual-lens design: one fixed wide-angle lens for a general overview and one Pan/Tilt (PT) lens. The PT lens offers 270° pan and 90° tilt maneuverability. When motion is detected, the PT camera can automatically track the subject while the fixed lens maintains a broader view.
