A searchlight directed by
the PerimeterEye Brain.

No. The PerimeterEye Brain is the control center that commands the searchlight. Camera context, PerimeterEye AI assessment, and your Property Mode inform the system’s response. When illumination is called for, the Brain instructs the searchlight where to aim and directs its tracking. The light carries out those commands; it does not independently decide who should be illuminated.

The full demonstration, recorded from a working PerimeterEye system: the AI voice warnings, the 120 dB siren, a vehicle break-in at night with the searchlight landing on the person at the car and following them, and an intruder approaching a driveway. In it, one searchlight lights 150 feet of driveway, and the beam is still impossible to ignore 75 feet out. The stills under the film are moments from it. It is a live PerimeterEye demonstration.

Yes. Every PerimeterEye spotlight has the motorized hardware for tracking under the Brain’s control, with 355° of horizontal rotation and 90° of vertical tilt. The black and white finishes shown on this page have the same tracking function. A system designed with a searchlight comes with Brain Full, for full automatic tracking.

Yes. The PerimeterEye Brain directs the tracking, and the searchlight physically changes direction in response to those commands, keeping the beam on the selected activity within coverage. Camera visibility, mounting position, buildings, and other obstructions affect the coverage available on your property.

Armed is the daily-use mode. PerimeterEye learns your property and assesses context for residents, ordinary visitors, deliveries, and workers alongside suspicious behavior. You do not need to manually arm and disarm the system as people come and go. Visitor mode is reserved for large gatherings with lots of expected activity.

No. Tracking light, voice warnings, and siren escalation form a response that depends on the activity, your Property Mode, and your settings. Not every event needs every response. You can also escalate or de-escalate yourself.

Yes. In system settings, you can configure Perimeter Sweeps to run as often as you like. The Brain commands the searchlights through a physical sweep of the property exterior, separate from tracking a person. One hour after sunset is the default schedule; you can change the timing and frequency or turn sweeps off entirely.

Yes. Use your phone or indoor wall panel to aim and activate the spotlights manually and escalate or de-escalate the response. You can also change Property Modes and configure the timing and frequency of Perimeter Sweeps in system settings. Quiet and Off modes stand deterrence down.

That depends on the areas you want covered, camera views, mounting positions, sightlines, and obstacles. The 355° rotation and 90° tilt describe the unit’s range of motion, not a promise that one light covers an entire property. Plan coverage around the driveway, entrances, vehicles, and detached structures that matter to you.

Often, yes. A specialist designs your system around the cameras you have, with the Brain and the searchlight, and checks they're compatible first. The Brain commands the searchlight as part of that system.

No. A searchlight can make suspicious activity visible and create a clear, directed response, but no security system can guarantee that a person will leave or that an incident will be prevented. PerimeterEye combines that physical response with owner awareness and event context.
