Motion Sensor Detectors
These are categorized into two.
1. Passive Infrared Motion Detectors
These are the most common types of motion detectors that detect movement in the infrared spectrum. They are also known as PIR sensors. They detect heat emitted as infrared light which is invisible to the human eye.
You can attach them to a floodlight, camera, or siren to activate your alarm system.
2. Active Motion Detectors
Though less common, active motion detectors are still useful. Some work by sending a signal from an emitter to a receiver. If the signal is broken it is detected, activating the alarm system.
Others detect changes by use of reflected ultrasonic sound waves. It has a sonar detector that emits a sound wave and measures its intensity and time of return. A change in either sets off the alarm system.
CCTV Installations
CCTV cameras are important when it comes to monitoring activities taking place around your home. You can monitor what is going on in your backyard, at the gate, or even what your kids are up to.
CCTV cameras can also help keep your home safe by scaring away criminals. They can also come in handy in the provision of evidence in a court of law
