Suggestion for Feature Enhancement of PIR

starfish21

Hello, as per the Topic, I assume that the sensitivity settings for PIR of Low/Mid/High, are for the entire field of view. I would like to suggest, if possible, to add a 'frame' in the view area that shows exactly where the active PIR is, according to the Low/Mid/High setting. Additionally to that, it would be great if the user could adjust the frame to fine tune the PIR area.
I have an area that monitors a door with a busy street within view. I would like to adjust my PIR area if I could so I don't get false events.
Bye the way, Great product!
Thanks

Alas, I fear your suggestion will be impossible to implement. PIR devices are cheap, self-contained devices, manufactured by the millions. They appear in things as cheap as a $7 nightlight. The reason they are included in battery operated security cameras is the low cost and the low current drain. Seriously, one AA battery can power a PIR sensor for nearly a year.

PIR's work by detecting when Infrared intensity changes from one sector to another. That's why they do pretty well when something moves "across" the camera, and significantly less well when something moves "toward" the camera.

Having low, medium, high settings is about all that can be done.

Doubt that I'm wrong, and would be VERY happy if Reolink says, "we can do that!"

Hi @starfish21, sorry about that we cannot do that due to the hardware limit. And yes, @Crimp On, you're right.
Hope we could provide the better products in the future for you.
If you have any other suggestions, you may also submit a request to the support team at support.reolink.com.
Have a nice day!
