Track Movement Across Large Outdoor Areas

For Australian homes with wide driveways, backyards, front yards, or side access, a fixed camera may lose sight of someone once they leave its field of view. Reolink motion tracking cameras can pan and tilt to follow detected people, vehicles, or animals, providing more continuous coverage as they move around the property.

Keep an Eye on Driveways and Vehicles

Auto tracking is especially useful for long driveways and larger properties. When a person or vehicle moves through the area, compatible Reolink cameras can automatically follow the target instead of leaving the rest of the movement outside a fixed viewing angle. Some dual-lens models can also show the overall scene and a tracked close-up at the same time.

Monitor Pets Around the Backyard

For households with dogs or other pets spending time outdoors, smart detection can distinguish animals and track their movement around the yard. You can check where they go and receive relevant motion alerts through the Reolink App.

Cover Remote Areas Without Complicated Wiring

For sheds, farms, gates, large gardens, or other areas where power and network cabling are difficult to install, selected Reolink tracking cameras offer battery, solar, or 4G LTE options. This makes motion tracking practical beyond areas immediately around the house.

Monitor Day and Night Without Monthly Fees

Reolink tracking cameras combine smart detection and real-time alerts with local recording options, while outdoor models provide weather-resistant designs and night vision for around-the-clock monitoring. Core smart detection and local recording features are available without a required monthly subscription.

What is Motion Tracking on a Security Camera?

Motion tracking refers to the movement of a security camera along with the object. It automatically detects and follows the path of the moving object within the camera's field of view. It uses motorized pan, tilt, and zoom functions to keep the object centered in the frame. It captures more details and focuses on every movement of the object. It also covers a wider area and captures the object from different angles.

How Do Motion Tracking Cameras Work?

Motion tracking cameras detect movement using sensors. When they sense motion, the camera moves to follow the object. As the object moves, the camera also adjusts its pan and tilt position to stay on its path. This type of camera that follows motion records a more detailed video within its tracking range. It provides a clear visual summary with timestamps, making surveillance analysis easy for users.

How to Choose the Best Motion Tracking Security Cameras?

Video Quality: The camera should deliver excellent video quality by recording in high resolution. While 4K or higher is ideal, it should at least be above 2K. The footage needs to be clear and detailed both during the day and at night.

Tracking Function: The camera must have a tracking feature. It should also support pan and tilt movements to follow the path of the moving object. As soon as motion is detected, the camera should start moving instantly to track and record the object’s movement.

Smart Detection: The camera should have a smart detection feature. This helps it recognize different types of objects, like people, vehicles, and pets. It reduces false alarms and sends more accurate and specific alerts to the user.

Night Vision: The camera should have night vision to capture clear and detailed videos at night. It may offer color night vision, black-and-white, or both. Check what night vision options the camera provides. Some models, like those with Reolink's ColorX technology, offer advanced night vision for even better results.

Connectivity: For reliable performance, you can use a wired motion-tracking security camera, but it needs proper wiring. Other options are Wi-Fi and cellular cameras. For a stable and fast connection, choose the dual-band Wi-Fi model. Cameras with Wi-Fi 6 function offer even better performance. A cellular camera is a good choice if there's no internet available at the location.

Where should I place a motion-tracking security camera?

Motion security cameras should be placed in the broader area to cover everything. The height should be high enough to avoid obstructions and tampering. The camera should be able to pan and tilt completely without getting blocked by any obstacle. Usually, motion tracking cameras are placed outdoors, such as in the driveway and backyard. However, you can install them indoors at any open location.

How to Install Motion Tracking Security Camera?

Step 1: Select a suitable location for the camera and place the mounting plate. Mark the holes required.
Step 2: Drill the holes using a drill machine and secure the mounting plate. Now, mount the camera.
Step 3: Connect the motion tracking camera to power and network via wire or wirelessly. Finally, complete the setup to get it started.

How to Set Up Reolink Motion Track via App?

After installation, follow these simple steps to set up motion track in Reolink cameras.

Step 1: Open the Reolink app. Go to the camera settings and tap Email Alerts.
Step 2: Turn on Email alerts and tap Image Setting.
Step 3: Enable Motion Track and Motion Timestamp.

Now, you will receive motion tracking alerts through email.

Are There Security Cameras that Follow Motion?

Yes, Reolink has a wide range of auto-tracking cameras. They detect the object automatically and start tracking the motion. You can get indoor and outdoor motion tracking cameras with excellent video quality and smart detection.

What Camera Has the Best Motion Detection?

Reolink security cameras are equipped with smart motion detection. They can instantly detect the object within the field of view and start recording. They can distinguish between a person, pet, vehicle, or parcel. They send accurate real-time alerts to the connected devices.

Do Motion Sensor Cameras Record All the Time?

A motion sensor security camera records when it detects movement. However, most cameras offer different recording options. You can set them to record continuously, only when motion is detected, or on a set schedule.

What is the Difference Between Motion Detection and Motion Tracking Cameras?

Motion detection cameras only detect the motion of the object. They do not pan and tilt as the object moves and are set at a certain angle. However, motion tracking cameras change their pan and tilt positions according to the object's movement. They follow the path and record more details.

How Far away can Security Cameras Detect Motion?

Security cameras can typically detect motion from about 20 to 100 feet (6 to 30 metres) away, depending on the camera and detection method. PIR-based battery cameras often have a shorter range of around 20–40 feet (6–12 metres), while powered cameras using video-based motion detection can detect larger moving objects at greater distances. Actual range varies with the camera lens and resolution, target size, sensitivity settings, installation angle, lighting, and environment.
