SEC-BODYTEMPCAM1 Camera Configuration Guide

**Please Note:  Cameras Default IP address is 192.168.1.121.  IP Utility can be downloaded off our website here

• Log into the cameras web interface on Internet Explorer (IE), default username is “admin” and default password are “1234567u”. Make sure to download the new plugin. 

Note: close ALL browser tabs while installing the plugin.

• Parameter Configuration (Configuration/Human Thermometer/Parameter Configure)

◦ Enable face detection

◦ Draw the area according to the real scenario, there is a maximum of 8 areas supported. We usually use one detection area to cover where people could potentially appear in, recommended distance is 9 to 16 feet (3-5 meters) for capturing.

• Leave the Display Trace Info at “Mode 1”

• Show Detection Area, can turn On or Off

• For Confidence Coefficient, we suggest keeping the default value (Mid). It’s for the face matching level with the built-in algorithm.

• Area ID is for the selected areas if you choose more then one main area, up to 8 totals. We suggest keeping this at one and focusing on the main point of entrance.

• For Face Pixel Minimum and Maximum, we suggest keeping the default value (70/1000). Only faces in this range will be detected.

• There are two different Snapshot Modes: 

◦ Timing: ‘upload interval’ is associated with ‘timing’, camera will upload one picture every 5 seconds (Suggested).

◦ Optical: ‘snapshot count’ is associated with ‘optical’, camera will upload the best face picture in 5 seconds.

• For Upload Image Interval we suggest leaving at 5 seconds (1-10 second range).

• For Yaw Degree, Tilt Degree, Pitch Degree and OSD Overlay Snapshot, we suggest keeping as default.

• FTP Upload Image Matting and FTP Upload Whole Image are if you are using the camera as a standalone device, no CMS or NVR, and wish to save the facial snaps to an FTP.

• Temperature Parameters

• Enable this field and leave all as DEFAULT except LENGTH UNIT and MOUNT DISTANCE

◦ IF YOU SWITCH TO FAHRENHEIT THE FIELDS STILL STAY AS DEFAULT (Except Length/Mount Distance, mentioned above)

◦ DEPENDING ON THE SELECTION OF “LENGTH UNIT” (METERS/FEET), ALL DISTANCE FIELDS WILL BE CONSIDERED IN THOSE UNITS!

[IMPORTANT] Set the mount distance according to the real installation, whose value should be the horizontal distance from the detection area to the camera. 

Hit ‘apply’ to save the settings.

• Face Alarm Linkage

IF SWITCHED TO FAHRENHEIT YOU MUST ADJUST “ALARM TEMPERATURE”, 99.5-100.5F (Default Celsius is 37.30)[

• [IMPORTANT] Thermal Mapping (Configuration/Human Thermometer/Thermal Mapping)

◦ This step is mainly for matching the thermal image with the visible image, which can ensure the measurement accuracy.  The Black Body device (Infrared Calibrator) MUST be in the Field of View of the thermal image.  The thermal image is a FIXED LENS and is a smaller field of view then the standard image.

• There are eight groups of ID, and each group ID contains three points. If using One area, then you do not have to set groups 2-8.

• Pick out three points that you can clearly see in the thermal image, mark them with point1, point2 and point3.

• Find the three locations of the three points in the visible image and mark them with the same point numbers associated with those in thermal image.

◦ Note: Suggested to choose three points far away from one another, so the triangle of can cover 70% of the image.

• Hit ‘apply’ to save the settings.

• Test if the rectangle can correctly surround the face, and perfect it by adjusting the three points.

• Thermal calibration (Configuration/Human Thermometer/Thermal Calibration)

• Install the blackbody properly where the camera can see it (within the thermal image). The blackbody needs to be powered on for at least 20 mins to reach to a stable temperature.

◦ The Infrared Calibrator will ALWAYS display in CELSIUS; the stable temperature is ~40C

• Enable.

• If you turn on ‘Display Area Info’, the blackbody (Infrared Calibrator) will also be shown with temperature on thermal image.

◦ Draw box around your calibrator

SEC BODYTEMPCAM1 camera run off of POE output?

Yes it is, safe.

What are the minimum specs required to handle SEC-BODYTEMPCAM1?

For a single camera: i7 processing, at least 8GB of RAM.

From where is the temperature being scanned?

From a point in the middle of the forehead, the temperature is scanned, above the nose and in-between the eyes. If the camera captures a profile image it is using the skin around the earhole for temperature.  It is important to note that what is being scanned is skin temperature and not core temperature.

Should people be screened prior to entry?

The camera needs to be set within a controlled environment and cannot be installed outside. The calibrator isn’t weatherproof (IP66) and airflow, whether inside or out, could throw off the camera’s calibration.

If you need to screen people before entering the building, you would need to set up an enclosed tent to scan individuals. The camera can operate in both extreme heat and cold as long as no airflow would skew the results. If an individual is outside for an extended period, in the intense heat or cold without the opportunity to reregulate their temperature, the results might be slightly off, its recommended to wait 20-30 seconds before reading.

Need to wait when coming from outside for accurate reading?

Most of the time, there will not be any accuracy issues when getting scanned. If you have been out in the extreme heat or cold for an extended time you may want someone to wait roughly 30 seconds for their body to adjust to the environment. The camera is taking the skin temperature, which the human body keeps in check very efficiently.

What is your advice for poorly controlled environments?

If you are going to invest in the product, you will also need to invest in creating a controlled environment. If the environment is not controlled, you will not have accuracy. 

What effects an individuals’ temperature?

An individuals’ temperature will not read higher based on wearing a darker colored cap or clothing. The temperature scanned is the skin. The camera is using the face detection analytic to detect a human face then apply the algorithm built into the camera to display a temperature that is read from the epidermis of the forehead, or if it is a profile picture captured, the skin around the earhole is used.

If you’re wearing a mask, glasses, hood, hat, or all combined, if those two focal points aren’t blocked, then the camera can give a temperature reading.

Depending on the type of hat, for example, a forwards facing baseball cap pulled down entirely over the forehead can cause an individual not to be scanned. Another factor that could affect the scan is how the camera is mounted. The cameras must not be mounted higher than 8-feet. If the camera is wall-mounted and facing on a downward angle where a hat or hardhat is blocking the forehead, a solution would be to mount the cameras on a tripod to get a more direct shot.

Please watch the scenario video here for more info on this.

As for individuals who have been out in the extreme heat or cold for an extended time you may want to wait about 30 seconds for their body to adjust to the environment. The camera is taking the skin temperature, which the human body keeps in check very efficiently.

Two real-life examples of cold and hot temperatures:

In New York, the temperatures were averaging 45 degrees, and we had someone whose drive into work took about 20 minutes. While driving, they had the window rolled down and the air continually blowing into their face. They would walk from their car to the office and could feel their skin was cold. When walking into the office, they would get scanned, and their temperature would be between 96.9 and 97 Degrees. After waiting for about 60 seconds, they would rescan, and their temperature would average the mid 97 degrees.

In Arizona, where the temperature was over 100 degrees, we found that when someone was outside for a while, a cooling down about 20-30 seconds was necessary. Initially, their temperature registered at about 102, but after 20 seconds, it stabilized and showed their baseline temperature.

Something to keep in mind is that everyone is different. Two people who are excessively overheated may vary slightly in how fast their bodies regulated their temperature. One person might take about 10 seconds, while another person might take about 45 seconds. We are finding that the average is about 20-30 seconds for someone to regulate back to their baseline skin temperature.

Does the subject have to face the camera?

The subjects face must hit the 7% FOV (Field of View) mark of the camera to get an accurate reading. It is looking for two measurement points. The first point is in the middle of the forehead, roughly the area in-between the two eyes, near the nose, and if it captures a profile image, it is looking for the skin around the ear hole. The person has to be walking into the view of the camera and not away.

What is the ETA on the Fahrenheit firmware fix for US sites?

The firmware is currently available, giving the option for Fahrenheit or Celsius. The product leaves our warehouse with this latest firmware update, and the product comes defaulted to Fahrenheit & Distance comes defaulted to Feet with the option for metric units. 

What VMS’s are supported?

As of today 4/29/20, we know Axxon and EXACT are working on an integration. Other companies that have reached out but are not 100% confirmed yet. The SDK is available upon request but each is responsible for their integration. 

Without an NVR, will images be stored?

No. The camera will not store any images. 

Will the camera do face recognition without an NVR or computer?

The camera only does face detection. The CMS is what handles Facial Recognition if you aren’t running the CMS, face images will not be saved.

Will the camera track a person?

Tracking is based on facial detection. As soon as the 7% mark is met (7% is the required amount to get a temperature), it will read the face detection analytic and then apply the algorithm for the temperature display.  

Where are these cameras made?

The cameras are manufactured in China but are not affiliated with and are not OEM made products from Hikvision or Dahua. 

Can the camera just be connected to a LAN that has the NVR on it?

Yes, it can be stand alone.

What is the accuracy of the camera?

The accuracy of the camera is 0.54 Degrees Fahrenheit / 0.3 Degrees Celsius.   

Is this camera FDA approved for taking Body Temperature readings?

We are currently in the process of working on our 510k Certificate approval. 

Will the camera pick up the temp of a person who is walking away?

No. it is not designed to work this way.  Depending on the angle, it might be able to capture a profile and on occasion provide a temperature. 

Is there a max mounting height from the floor?

Yes, you may not exceed 8 feet from the floor when installing on a wall or ceiling mount.

How do you calibrate the calibrator?

Let the calibrator run for about 15-20 minutes. On the back panel of the calibrator, you will see a display. The display will be in Celsius regardless of the settings in the camera and CMS. Once the screen hits the 40-40.2 degrees, the unit has been calibrated. 

Can you set the camera and calibrator to shoot through a glass door?

 No, the camera and calibrator must be in sight of one another and cannot see through a glass window or door. There can be no glass between the devices and the subject. 

How far away does the calibrator need to be from the camera?

The camera and calibrator must be in view of each other and must not exceed 16 Feet. The recommended distance is 7-16ft. and the calibrator must be in the field of view of the THERMAL image

Does each camera require its own calibrator?

Yes, each camera requires its own calibrator. You cannot use two cameras with a single calibrator. The temperatures will not be accurate. 

Can you connect the CMS to a customer’s network?

Yes, the CMS can be connected to a customer’s pc and also run on a pc that is not on the network.

What does CMS stand for?

Central Monitoring Software

Is the CMS included with the purchase of camera & calibration device?

Yes, there is a free download that is available on our website. There is no charge. You can find it here

How many users can log into the CMS simultaneously?

The CMS (Central Management System) is stand-alone. You can install it on multiple computers, but there is a max of 10-user connections for each camera.

If you are using a computer, will it record video without an NVR?

No, the closest workaround is to add the camera to the CMS. The CMS saves snapshots based on facial recognition. Please keep in mind that if the CMS doesn’t see specific points of a face to realize its a face (such as if the person is partially covered), you may still get a temperature read, but the face snap may not save. The CMS is only saving snapshots, not video.

How to use a cloud feature in the NVR menu?

The cloud feature will be implemented in the future. Once it is fully functional, we will have additional information posted!

How many hours of video can be stored on the NVR?

That will depend on the size of the drive you put in the unit and the number of cameras you have installed. The standard 4-channel unit can house a single hard drive bay, and can use drives ranging from 1-10 Terabytes. 

Can the NVR do the job of counting and temperature notification?

No.

Will camera send notifications automatically without an NVR?

If the camera is networked, email notifications can be sent out, even without an NVR. This will include a snapshot with the temperature for individuals who are above the threshold set. The camera also has two alarm outputs that can be utilized.

To use the app, InVid LIVE CMS, the camera would need to be added to the CMS, and the CMS would have to be kept open and running on a PC. If a temperature over the threshold is registered, it will send a push notification to the app.

Is the NVR required for sending email alerts?

No, the camera can send out email alerts. The 4/8/16 Channel NVR does not have the ability to send out email alerts while the 32 channel unit does, for over temperatures.

What type of notifications are triggered by high temp?

You can have an email notification with a snapshot of the individual and temperature range and also the option of one or two sirens if the temperature is above the threshold. 

Are there any onboard relays that could be triggered to send an alert

Yes, the camera has 2-alarm outputs. Power is needed, 12/24 volt AC/DC. Settings within the camera can be configured to trigger an alert when a temperature is over the threshold. 

Can the system send email and text alarms?

The system can send emails, it includes the picture of the scene with the temperature reading. Currently, there are no text alarms, but it is something we are looking at trying to implement.

Audible alarm once it detects a high temp?

The camera has two notification functions. The first is an email notification. The second is an alarm output trigger. The CMS that links to the camera does have an audible alarm if your computer is set up for sound. 

What is the warranty on the Secure Series products?

How to Setup DDNS on Camius DVR and NVR Surveillance Recorder?

To setup DDNS for Camius security cameras, you’ll first need to register for a DDNS service, obtain a domain name, activate DDNS in your camera’s network settings, and then input your DDNS account’s hostname, username, and password.

If you want to access your Camius DVR or NVR recorder remotely from your PC, you might encounter some difficulties with dynamic IP addresses. A dynamic IP address is one that changes every time you connect to the internet, making it hard to establish a stable connection with your recorder. That’s where DDNS comes in handy.

What is DDNS?

Dynamic DNS, or DDNS, stands for Dynamic Domain Name System, and it allows you to assign a static domain name to your recorder, regardless of its IP address. This way, you can always connect to your recorder using the same URL without worrying about IP changes.

Dynamic DNS lets you access your Camius security camera device on the internet with an easy-to-remember web address like “camiusnvr.dyndns.com” instead of a hard-to-remember IP address like 216.144.47.245. This is useful when you want to connect to your security camera, DVR, NVR from anywhere in the world.

Setting up DDNS

In this guide, we will take you through the steps of setting up DDNS on your Camius DVR or NVR recorder. You will need to have an account with a DDNS service provider, such as DDNS_3322, DYNDNS, NO_IP, CHANGEIP, or DNSEXIT.

Step 1:

Create an account on your preferred DDNS service provider website and a domain name (which is a hostname for your Camius DVR/NVR or an IP camera). Each of these providers offers free and paid accounts, which you need to select based on your requirements.

You will need to provide your email address and create a password. After verifying your email, you will be able to log in to your dashboard. The process of creating an account with DDNS service providers is similar.

Create a domain name for your recorder on the DDNS server. You can usually choose any domain name (hostname) you like, as long as it is not already taken. For example, you can use something like camius.no-ip.org or camius2023.dyndns.com

Step 2:

Configure DDNS settings on your Camius DVR or NVR recorder.

Step 3:

Step 4:

Enter the Domain name (hostname) in a web browser tab bar to access your Camius DVR/NVR remotely from a PC or Mac. Enjoy!

Additionally, users can conveniently modify the audio encoding format per their requirements. To troubleshoot two-way audio, turn down the input volume and output volume and test switching audio code type (G711A and G711U).

Two factors can affect the audio quality: network and distance.

The recommended distance for the microphone to transmit quality sound is 9.5 to 16 feet.

To engage in two-way audio communication, the Camius View app is the go-to platform.

Here’s a simple guide to using the 2 way audio security cameras feature:

It’s important to note that the two-way audio experience with Camius security cameras is characterized by live bidirectional communication and not an intercom-type function.

In most scenarios, the mute function is enabled by default. By enabling audio, users can record audio from the microphone of their security camera. To listen to the recorded audio, whether in live mode or during playback, it is necessary to open the individual channel in full screen on which the audio-enabled security camera is operating. This applies to both NVR and app usage.

However, it’s crucial to exercise caution while utilizing surveillance audio, as its usage might be restricted or subject to regulations depending on the location. Always ensure to verify with local authorities on the proper and legal use of security cameras with audio to avoid infringing upon privacy laws. Unauthorized audio recording can be considered illegal in certain jurisdictions. Hence, Camius emphasizes the significance of complying with local laws and assumes no liability for the misuse of its surveillance cameras that do not align with the respective regulations.

You can use Arlo Solar Panels in any outdoor location that falls within the solar panel’s operating temperature range of 32° to 113°F (0° to 45°C). For safety reasons, the Arlo Solar Panel cannot charge your camera battery at temperatures below freezing.

To set up your Arlo Solar Panel:

1. Choose a good outdoor location for your Arlo Solar Panel, within 4.5 feet (1.3 meters) of your Arlo camera.
   The Arlo Solar Panel can absorb the most solar energy when it is in full sunlight for as much of the day as possible. You can mount the Arlo Solar Panel on your wall, fence, roof, gutter, or eaves. Make sure that you mount your Arlo Solar Panel facing true south (in the northern hemisphere) or true north (in the southern hemisphere).
2. Secure the mount with the screws provided in the package.
   
3. Attach your Arlo Solar Panel to the mount.
4. Adjust the angle of the Arlo Solar Panel on the mount to the appropriate angle for your latitude.
                  
5. Make sure that your Arlo camera battery is fully charged.
   Note: Your Arlo Solar Panel is designed to keep your camera battery charged, not to charge the battery from low to full.
6. Connect the Arlo Solar Panel cable to your Arlo camera.
   

Warning: Do not unplug the cable from your Arlo Solar Panel. This can damage the cable and the Arlo Solar Panel.

Note: The charging icon will not immediately appear in the Arlo Secure app. If you want to confirm that your camera is charging, you can wait for the charging icon to appear, or you can check the camera’s battery percentage in the Arlo Secure app from day to day. For more information on battery charging icons, visit: What do my Arlo camera’s battery level icons and notifications mean?

How do I position the Arlo Solar Panel to get the most sunlight?

The amount of energy that the Arlo Solar Panel can produce depends on several factors: average sun exposure, weather conditions, tilt angle, and dust or debris. A solar panel in the same location might produce a different amount of energy at noon in December than at noon in June.

Similarly, the same panel might produce more energy in one geographic location and less in another. In both situations, the difference is based mainly on the amount of sunlight that the solar panel receives. To see a world map of average sun exposure, visit: http://globalsolaratlas.info/?m=sg:dni

To optimize the effectiveness of your solar panel, do the following:

• Choose a location for your solar panel that gets plenty of sunlight; try to avoid spots that are in the shade for a significant portion of the day.
• Mount your solar panel facing true south (in the northern hemisphere) or true north (in the southern hemisphere) and tilt it to the appropriate angle for your latitude.
• Wipe the panel every few months to remove dust or debris that might affect the solar energy-harvesting efficiency of the panel.

For more information about the Arlo Solar Panel, see the following knowledge base articles:

• How to setup Push Notifications or Email Alerts for Arlo devices
• How to factory reset Arlo devices

How to install CCTV cameras in corridors?

When designing an indoor video surveillance system, a common issue involves the control of corridors. The main task involves monitoring the movement of guests and personnel. This monitoring activity provides valuable data regarding the time and pattern of movement of the people being observed which can be used if post-incident analysis is needed.

Basic data

Consider the length and width of the corridor, ceiling height, and presence of possible obstacles (doors, items of furniture, etc.).

Questions

1. What is the minimal number of cameras sufficient for monitoring a corridor 15 meters long? 30 meters? Please justify the need for this number of cameras.

2. What are the specs of each camera that are crucial to fulfilling the task at hand? Please explain your choice.

3. What’s the proper positioning of the cameras – opposite one another or one after the other?

Solution
What is the solution? General terms:

Let’s start by clarifying a few points that are essential to solving the problem.

• How to setup Push Notifications or Email Alerts for Arlo devices
• How To Two Way Talk Setup Guide

The objective of surveillance is to recognize a familiar person

CCTV systems are used to fulfill different tasks. Some of these are defined in national and international standards, such as in the EN 62676-2015, which deals with the tasks of identification, recognition and detection.

For corridor monitoring, a normal detection setting is 125 pixels per meter, since identification is handled at the entrance to the building and simple detection is not enough for post-incident analysis using the video surveillance archive.

The dead zone under the camera

No matter how small the corridor is, it is impossible to eliminate single camera “dead zones” (i.e., zones that are not in the camera’s field of view).

This person in the foreground will eventually step into a “dead zone” and disappear from the camera’s view. Therefore, we cannot guess from this camera whether he will proceed forward through the door to the staircase or turn right to the door of the office.

Information and unnecessary background

We’re generally not interested in the entire image delivered by the surveillance camera. Rather, just the most important aspects, including the observation targets, their recognition, time of appearance on camera, and their further actions. The rest is simply background noise that loads the network equipment with extra traffic and wastes hard drive and archive storage system space. Compare the informational capacity of two images:

These images come from the same camera. The difference is only in the frame format: 16:9 or a frame rotated by 90°, resulting in an aspect ratio of 9:16. This function is supported by a limited number of cameras and video management systems (software controlling and recording video from surveillance cameras), but it is essential for monitoring corridors. It’s commonly known as corridor format or corridor mode.

Keeping in mind that all cameras have a dead zone and that we’re not interested in walls when monitoring a corridor and trying to recognize individuals along the entire length of a corridor (that is, recognizing individuals who we know personally or whose close-up has been registered at the entrance to the building), we can begin to set up our surveillance cameras.

15-meter corridor

For a small corridor, the method of installing cameras at opposite ends facing one another generally works well. This allows you to monitor the entire length of the corridor using only two cameras. Depending on the length of the corridor, you should select the optimal focal length that allows recognition of a familiar person, described in EN 62676-2015 or similar standard, throughout the entire corridor segment.

The camera resolution should be set so that it’s at least minimally sufficient to perform the job at hand. 1.3 or 2 megapixels are generally satisfactory, but a resolution of 4 or 5 MP (or more) may be necessary for longer corridors. That said, it’s necessary to keep in mind lower light sensitivity (the ability to “see” in dim lighting conditions) and ensure sufficient lighting.

Pay attention, as well, to the fact that obstacles (in our case, 2 ATMs) can obscure the field of view. Apart from the above, the corridor may contain additional areas of interest that need to be controlled by individual cameras:

In this particular example, it’s not optimal to control the zone in front of the ATM by the “corridor” cameras. A more effective solution would be to install a separate camera with a wide-angle lens in the immediate vicinity of the ATM.

30-meter corridor

For longer corridors, the camera placement method might be similar, but you should keep longer-focus lenses in mind, selecting them as necessary.

In some cases, it’s better to use the “piggyback” method, in which one camera looks at the “dead zone” of the next one – a typical setup for protecting extended perimeters. This kind of setup allows the video surveillance operator to better survey the area. Noting the mounting direction of each of the cameras on the floor makes them much less complicated to monitor.

However, this method, in its original form, is not optimal for long corridors due to the presence of “dead ends” and the fact that there is nobody to watch over the “dead zone” of the first camera:

Conclusions

1. The solution to this issue requires at least 2 cameras installed at the opposite ends, one against the other.

2. In order to minimize the background, namely the walls that don’t need to be monitored, it’s best to use cameras that have a “corridor” frame format setting (9:16).

3. As a rule, the longer the corridor, the longer the focal length of the camera’s lens should be. The second factor to consider is the camera’s image resolution. It must be sufficient, but don’t be too focused on higher megapixels, which often cause reduced light sensitivity of the sensor as well as an increase of the load on the network infrastructure and storage systems. These are good reasons not to put too much trust in advertising slogans, but instead carefully consider your real needs.

Arlo devices only sends notifications according to the rules in the mode that is currently active. To reduce unwanted notifications, you might need to adjust the position of one or more cameras, reduce motion or audio sensitivity, change your notification settings, or create a custom mode.  

To reduce the number of unwanted notifications that you receive:

1. Position your camera so that it does not pick up the motion that is triggering the camera to notify you.
   For example, if Arlo is notifying you about cars passing in the street, aim your camera so that the street is outside the camera’s field of view. For more information about camera positioning, visit: How do I position my Arlo wire-free camera?
2. Create activity zones for your camera to focus on.
   For more information about activity zones, visit: What are activity zones and how do I create them?
3. If you are unable to position your camera so that the field of view only includes motion that you care about, reduce your camera’s motion sensitivity instead.
   You must reduce your camera’s motion sensitivity in the rules for each mode in which you receive unwanted notifications.
   For more information about how to adjust your camera’s motion sensitivity, visit: How do I change the motion sensitivity on my Arlo camera?
   For more information about finding the right motion sensitivity setting, visit: How do I use the motion detection test for my Arlo device?
   If you are receiving unwanted sound-triggered notifications, reduce the audio sensitivity settings on the camera or cameras that are triggering too often.
4. You can also edit your modes and rules to record based only on motion if all of the sound-based notifications are unwanted.
   For more information about changing audio sensitivity settings, visit How do I change the audio sensitivity on my Arlo camera?
   For more information about disabling sound detection, visit: How do I enable or disable motion or sound detection?

If you like the amount of videos that Arlo is recording, but you want to receive fewer notifications, either edit the notification settings in your modes and rules or create a different custom mode for when you want recordings without notifications.
For example, you can create a mode that records but does not send notifications so that you can watch pet videos in your Arlo library without getting notified every time your pet moves or makes noise.
For more information about changing notifications settings, visit: How do I set up notifications or alerts?

Arlo Secure Smart Notification Options

With an Arlo Secure subscription, you can use Smart Notifications to select which notifications you receive. You can purchase a plan for multiple cameras, a single camera, or both. This provides a flexible and customizable experience for your Arlo system. You can activate any combination of the following features in the Arlo Secure app to determine what kind of motion alerts you want to receive.

• Person Detection. With the Arlo Person Detection feature, you receive real-time alerts when people approach your home. The person detection feature also allows you to search your recording library for videos containing people. For more information about camera positioning, visit: What is Arlo’s person detection feature?
• Package Detection. The Package Detection feature allows you to receive rich notifications when your Arlo camera sees a package being picked up or dropped off. With Package Detection turned on in the Arlo Secure app, your camera detects packages as small as a shoe box. For more information, visit: What is the Arlo package detection feature?
• Animal and Vehicle Detection. The Vehicle Detection feature detects cars, trucks, buses, motorbikes, and bicycles, and allows you to receive rich notifications when your Arlo camera detects a vehicle. The animal detection feature allows you to receive rich notifications when your Arlo camera detects an animal. It detects any animal larger than a small rodent.

Alarm Detection. The Alarm Detection feature notifies you on the Arlo Secure app when an Arlo camera hears a smoke and/or carbon monoxide (CO) detector’s alarm. Your Arlo camera records until activity stops or for a fixed length of time.  For more information, visit: What is the Arlo smoke and CO alarm detection feature?

When motion detection is enabled for your Arlo camera, you can choose what type of motion you want to be notified about.

For more information about motion detection and acitivity zones, visit:

• How does motion detection work on Arlo cameras?
