Q: QuestionDoes this camera pan and tilt automatically upon detection?

Asked 9 months ago by PKHUNT.

• A:Answer The Auto-Tracking feature in the camera automatically follows and records moving objects in its view. When motion is detected, the top camera pans and tilts to keep the object centered, ensuring you capture all activity. However, if more than one object is present, the auto-tracking feature will not activate, as it is designed to focus on one object at a time. This feature is ideal for monitoring large areas and can be easily enabled in the Lorex app.
