motion sensor cam

Activity-detecting surveillance device

A motion sensor cam is a camera that activates or begins recording when it detects movement in its field of view.

These devices are common in home security systems, wildlife monitoring, and surveillance setups: The motion sensor cam caught footage of the package thief.

The sensor conserves storage and battery by recording only when something moves.
