No alert — quiet house front, nothing happening.

Nothing wakes. Only the nanopower domain and the PIR are drawing.

How the camera spots it

Pets are cleared locally. People at the door are escalated, and Gen AI recognises a courier delivering a parcel as legitimate but alerts on a hooded figure forcing the door with a tool.

Wake
PIR wakes the camera; radar confirms distance and size before any capture
Schedule

On the camera
