Motion Detectors | Motion Detectors Offer A Wide Range Of Functionality And Uses

22 January, 2010

Motion detectors combine a physical mechanism and an electronic sensor, which sets up a sensing field. When an intruder enters this sensing field their presence is immediately detected. Detection can deter unwanted intruders from entering your home, and alert you when they do. So motion detectors will even compliment your existing security system.

In commercial settings motion detectors can be used to alert you when a customer comes through your door, letting you decide to either offer assistance or to further monitor their actions. This has a dual benefit. For customers, an audible alert lets them know that you are aware that they have entered your premises and are likely to attend to them quickly. It also benefits you because the alarm is a deterrent for thieves. If they know that you are aware they have entered your premises or have quickly left then they are less likely to choose your business for their shoplifting activities.

In industrial sectors motion detectors also play a big role in security systems. They can be integrated into existing systems very easily and include motion detection lights which switch on to provide a safe work environment, or safe passage to and from buildings and work areas. Lights that switch on based on motion being detected on the outside of warehouses also act as a deterrent to thieves and prowlers

Motion detectors can also be connected to cameras, allowing video monitoring that is triggered by the motion. This saves a lot of hard drive space, or recording tape, because the recorders are only active once any motion is detected. That’s when cameras are switched on and start recording, often aided by the lighting that was also triggered by the motion. This means that only important activity is recorded, which is a real time saver when it come times to review security footage and recordings.

So, what makes motion detectors accurate and easy to use?

For starters, infrared technology is at the core. A weatherproof infrared camera with an adjustable lens provides high degree of flexibility because it can capture images that are a long distance away from where it is positioned. This is important because you want good protection at night.

Video motion detection is one of the more advanced motion detection systems. In some systems the DVR and the monitor are combined into one unit. They are customizable so you can choose exactly which parts of your property you would like to monitor.

Simple sound devices are those that alert you when something has entered the sensory field. Sensitivity can be altered to increase detection accuracy. When integrated with professional security systems from such great providers as ADT, GE, Brinks, and Monitronics, your home or business security system becomes easy to manage.

Don’t underestimate the value of motion detectors as a complete part of your home or small business security system. They’re smart enough to tell the difference between an intruderyou’re your family pet. Contact USHomeSecurity.com today to learn more about your options in motion detector technology.
