Operating the Camera
1. Dual-Lens and Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) Functionality
The camera features an innovative dual-lens design: an upper fixed lens for wide panoramic views and a lower PTZ lens that offers 355° horizontal and 75° vertical rotation. This allows for seamless 360° monitoring and real-time split-screen viewing within the app.

2. PIR Human Detection & Auto-Tracking
The camera is equipped with advanced PIR human body detection technology. When human movement is detected, the camera sends instant alarm notifications to your smartphone. The auto-tracking feature intelligently follows detected human movement, ensuring no critical moments are missed. You can also set audible sirens and activate alarm lights to deter intruders.
