Rilevamento del movimento

The camera utilizes a Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor to detect motion. When motion is detected within the sensor's range (up to 100 feet), the camera will trigger and capture images or videos according to your configured settings. Adjust the PIR sensitivity in the settings menu to suit your environment and reduce false triggers.

Visione notturna

The BG410M features dual flash technology for night vision:

• 940nm No-Glow Red IR: Provides invisible infrared illumination for discreet night captures, resulting in clear black and white photos and videos.
• LED bianco: Offers visible white light illumination for vivid color pictures and videos at night.
