LED floodlight camera(s) 2–5 MP, hub integration, motion alerts & event timeline; optional PTZ for large areas
Objective
Improve night-time visibility and deterrence at entrances, driveways and gardens with reliable motion lighting and clear video evidence.
Key Considerations
- Retrofit-friendly mounting height and angle to avoid glare.
- Stable operation via hub when internet is down (local rules/recording where supported).
- Respect for neighbors’ privacy—masking zones and sensible lighting schedules.
Solution
- Install LED floodlight camera(s) covering driveway/gate/garden paths.
- Program motion-based lighting and alert rules with day/night schedules.
- Choose storage: local microSD/NVR or cloud; enable simple clip sharing.
Coverage & Placement
- Typical mounting height 2.5–3 m; aim across the approach, not directly into it.
- Entrances, driveway, side passages, garden perimeter and garages.
- Optional PTZ for wide areas that need pan/tilt/zoom viewing.
Automations & Rules
- Motion-activated LED floodlights at night; reduced sensitivity by day.
- Scenes: Away (alerts + lighting), Night (soft-start lighting), Home (notifications toned down).
- Optional linkage with door/window sensors or video doorbell events.
Devices Used
- Outdoor LED floodlight camera(s) — 2–5 MP (model ).
- Zigbee/Wi-Fi hub for local rules and reliability.
- (Optional) PTZ camera for large courtyards; (Optional) video doorbell at main entrance.

Outcome
Stronger visual deterrence and clear night-time footage. Residents receive timely alerts and can review clips quickly,
while core automations keep working locally for dependable everyday security.
Project FAQs
Does a floodlight camera need mains power?
Yes, it typically requires AC wiring at the mounting point. We verify power availability during the site survey and propose alternatives if wiring is not present.
Will it still record if the internet goes down?
With local microSD/NVR, recording continues; remote notifications resume once connectivity is restored.
How bright are the LEDs?
Brightness and beam angle vary by model; we match light output to your area size during quoting.
Can it trigger other outdoor lights?
Yes—when integrated with smart switches/hubs, motion events can trigger other exterior lights as part of a scene.
