Filmed PerimeterEye demonstrationYouTube

A staged vehicle break-in on a real property. Voice warning, tracking searchlight and a 130 dB siren — automatic, on-site, no operator. The scenario was staged for filming; the system's responses were not.

Play with sound to hear the voice warning and siren.

Frame by frame, from the film

Five seconds from the door handle to running away.

Stills from the film with its on-screen analysis and phone alert, on the Front Door 2 camera’s own clock. The door handle registers at 21:04:26. By 21:04:29 all systems are activated, and at 21:04:31 the person is running.

The first alert

The person in the black hoodie is at the car, and the first alert already describes them: at the vehicle in the driveway, and has not approached the house.

Contact with the door handle

The person reaches for the driver’s door. The analysis builds second by second: a person, no match to anyone it knows, loitering at the vehicle, and now contact with the door handle.

Car theft in progress

Three seconds after the door handle, the analysis is complete: the activity doesn’t match the household’s patterns and matches vehicle theft. All systems activate.

The searchlight lands

The searchlight hits the person at the driver’s door. The alert reads: spotlight, voice warning and siren activated, with a tap to cancel the escalation.

Running, and the beam follows

Five seconds after touching the door handle, the person is running down the drive, and the searchlight has moved with them, away from the car.

Followed away from the car

The searchlight follows the person past the tree and along the drive. The car hasn’t moved.

Filmed September 15, 2026, on a real property. The break-in was staged for filming; the system’s response was automatic, with no operator.

The Problem

Why car collections need smarter protection

Most camera systems are passive. They record someone walking up your driveway, checking handles, looking into vehicles, approaching a garage door, or leaving after damage is already done.

Recording is not the same as protection. PerimeterEye is built to detect movement around high-value vehicles in real time and trigger alerts or deterrence before the person gets close enough to act.

Configured Around The Property

What PerimeterEye watches over

PerimeterEye can create focused vehicle protection zones instead of treating the whole property as one generic camera zone.

Driveways
Garage doors
Detached garages
Car lifts
Outdoor parking pads
Street-facing vehicle areas
Private vehicle storage areas
Gated entrances
Side yards
Trailer or transporter areas
Workshop entrances

What the AI detects

This is especially useful when vehicles are visible from the street or stored in a detached garage.

People approaching vehicles
People lingering near garages
Unknown vehicles entering the driveway
Vehicles slowing near the property
Repeat visits
Nighttime presence
Movement around parked cars
Activity near garage doors
Restricted vehicle-zone entry
Suspicious dwell time near high-value assets

Active deterrence options

The goal is not just to capture evidence. The goal is to interrupt the behavior before the person gets to the vehicle.

Why intelligent spotlight tracking matters

Intelligent spotlight tracking for vehicle zones

A normal floodlight only lights a fixed area. Someone can approach from the side, stay out of the beam, or wait until they are past the light.

If someone enters the driveway and walks toward a vehicle, PerimeterEye's intelligent spotlight can follow them through the protected zone. The light is not just turning on. It is tracking.

Static floodlight: lights one fixed area. PerimeterEye spotlight: can track the moving target.

Example scenario

How PerimeterEye responds in real time.

01

Someone walks up the driveway late at night toward a parked exotic car or garage door.

02

A regular camera may send a generic motion alert.

03

PerimeterEye can detect the person entering a protected vehicle zone, activate the intelligent spotlight, track their movement, save the clip, and send a priority alert.

04

If they keep approaching, the system can trigger a voice warning or siren.
