Smarter security for rental properties and shared spaces.

Rental properties need visibility without turning property managers into full-time camera operators. PerimeterEye helps detect activity around entrances, parking lots, garages, trash areas, and shared spaces so issues can be documented and handled faster.

What PerimeterEye adds

Same camera. A different outcome.

One camera and one staged break-in, shown three ways: the view on its own, with PerimeterEye’s analysis, and with its response hardware.

It records

A person at the driver’s door, on a camera that records. Unless someone opens the clip in time, nothing else happens.

2 of 3 · UnderstoodView full size

The same view, understood

PerimeterEye reads the same moment: a person, no match to anyone it knows, loitering at the vehicle, contact with the door handle. The alert describes them in plain language.

3 of 3 · AnsweredView full size

The same view, answered

With a tracking searchlight, a siren, and AI voice warnings, the camera’s view directs a response. Four seconds later, the searchlight is on the person at the driver’s door.

Stills from a vehicle break-in staged for filming on a real property, on the Front Door 2 camera’s clock (21:04:26 and 21:04:30). The system’s response was automatic, with no operator.

The Problem

The problem for property owners

Property owners usually find out about issues after complaints start. Basic cameras may capture footage, but finding the right clip later is a headache.

PerimeterEye helps identify important events and save useful clips automatically.

Why intelligent spotlight tracking matters

Intelligent spotlight tracking for shared exterior areas

A static light can help illuminate one fixed area, but it does not adapt when someone moves.

PerimeterEye's intelligent spotlight can actively move with a person across parking lots, garages, and restricted side areas, making it harder to stay in the shadows.

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

Example scenario

How PerimeterEye responds in real time.

01

A person repeatedly enters the parking lot late at night and lingers near vehicles.

02

PerimeterEye can detect the activity, save event clips, notify the property manager, and activate the intelligent spotlight if configured.

03

Instead of digging through hours of footage, the owner has the relevant events ready.
