MotionCam is a motion detector with a camera for visual alarm verification developed by Ajax Systems. The device resolves the problem of unverified alarms and security patrol calls by false alarms. Whenever the detector spots an intrusion, it takes several photos so that the owner and the security company can be convinced whether there is a real intrusion or the alarm has occurred due to simple oversights or suboptimal installation of the detector.
MotionCam detectors do not violate privacy, as they activate the camera only in case of alarm — neither users nor the security company have any backdoors to take a picture by request. Ajax team has developed a new Wings radio protocol for this detector. It guarantees transmission of images in less than 9 seconds to a distance of 1,700 meters and provides record energy efficiency for this type of device — the batteries in the detector live up to 4 years. All the data are encrypted when transmitted and stored. MotionCam detectors require Hub 2 control panel.
