WizSense AI
Onboard intrusion and tripwire detection with human/vehicle classification cuts false triggers from foliage, animals and lighting changes — useful where perimeter rules matter on commercial sites. Also runs motion detection, privacy masking, scene-change alerts, audio detection, and system alerts (network loss, SD card fault) — handy for remote health-checks on multi-site estates.
Deployment notes
Single PoE run handles power and data, simplifying cable pulls versus 12V DC plus separate video. IP67 rating supports external bullet placement without additional enclosures. Check NVR/recorder channel licensing and total PoE wattage budget before adding this camera to an existing Dahua estate.
