PerimeterEye Tracking Spotlights

A searchlight directed by
the PerimeterEye Brain.

The PerimeterEye Brain is the control center of your system. When the system determines that activity needs to be illuminated, the Brain commands the searchlight where to aim and directs it to follow the movement.

Watch the beam find and follow a person in real nighttime camera footage.

One system. Clear control.

The Brain commands. The searchlight responds.

The PerimeterEye Brain sits at the head of the system, coordinating the connected hardware. Camera context, PerimeterEye AI assessment, and your settings inform the response; the Brain sends the commands that put it into action.

1. The cameras observe

The cameras give PerimeterEye a view of the person, their location, and their activity. That context helps the system determine whether a response is needed.

2. The Brain directs

When activity needs to be illuminated, the PerimeterEye Brain commands the searchlight to aim at that person or area. It directs tracking as the activity develops.

3. The searchlight responds

The searchlight receives the Brain’s commands and physically turns, tilts, and illuminates the selected area. The hardware carries out the response under the Brain’s control.

Meet the searchlight

Motorized hardware. Directed by the Brain.

The whole head physically rotates and tilts in response to the Brain’s commands. Those movements aim the beam at the selected activity and follow it within the covered area.

Horizontal rotation
355°

The head turns to direct the beam across the covered area.

Vertical tilt
90°

Motorized elevation directs the beam up or down.

Tracking control
PerimeterEye Brain

Every unit carries out aiming and tracking commands from the Brain.

Owner access
Phone & wall panel

Manual aim, activation, and response controls.

Coverage is designed around your property. Camera views, mounting positions, sightlines, and obstacles matter. Rotation and tilt describe the unit’s movement; they do not mean one searchlight covers every part of a property.

From observation to action

From camera context to the Brain’s command.

The cameras provide the view. PerimeterEye assesses the activity. The Brain directs the hardware response, and the searchlight carries it out.

Explore PerimeterEye AI
  1. 01

    The cameras give the system its view

    Your cameras show activity around entrances, vehicles, and other covered areas. PerimeterEye uses those views to understand where the person is, what they are doing, and how the situation is developing.

  2. 02

    The Brain directs the response

    At the head of the system, the PerimeterEye Brain coordinates the response using camera context, PerimeterEye AI assessment, and your Property Mode. When illumination is called for, the Brain sends the searchlight its commands.

  3. 03

    The searchlight carries out the commands

    The motorized head turns and tilts to illuminate the area the Brain directs it toward. The Brain directs continued tracking as the person moves within coverage; the searchlight executes that movement.

  4. 04

    The Brain coordinates the connected hardware

    The searchlight is one tool in the system’s response, alongside targeted voice, owner alerts, and siren escalation. You can watch, speak, or change the response from your phone or indoor panel.

One coordinated system

The light gets their attention. The response goes further.

Watch the full filmed demonstration, then see how tracking works alongside a warning directed at the person and escalation when the situation calls for it.

Tracking searchlight

The Brain commands the searchlight to illuminate the selected activity and directs its movement to keep the beam on it within coverage.

Targeted AI voice

The AI addresses the person it sees with a warning tailored to the activity. You can also speak live yourself.

Conditional siren escalation

A 130 dB siren can add a stronger response, with adjustable volume. Activity, mode, and settings determine when escalation is appropriate.

Perimeter Sweep

Perimeter sweeps.
On your schedule.

The Brain commands the searchlights to sweep your property’s exterior, moving across driveways, yards, and perimeter areas. In system settings, you can configure these sweeps to run as often as you like, separately from tracking a person.

Choose how often it sweeps

Set the timing and frequency in system settings to suit your property and preferences.

An evening sweep by default

The default is one hour after sunset. You can change the schedule and configure more frequent sweeps.

Optional and owner controlled

You can adjust your sweep settings or turn Perimeter Sweeps off entirely.

Armed / Daily-use mode

Ready for suspicious activity.
Built for an ordinary day.

A delivery, a regular worker, and a family member coming home are part of daily life. PerimeterEye learns your property and uses context to assess activity while remaining in Armed.

You do not need a daily routine of arming, disarming, or telling the system to stand down as people come and go.

Visitor: For large gatherings with lots of expected activity.

High Alert & Maximum Security: More assertive deterrence settings for heightened concern, with owner control intact.

Quiet: Cameras keep recording while AI analysis, notifications, and deterrence stand down.

Off: Watching and recording stop. Spotlights stand down.

A closer look

Tracking Searchlight questions

Is this a floodlight that turns toward a motion sensor?

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.

What does the real footage on this page show?

The first film shows the view from a night-vision camera as the searchlight finds a person and keeps its beam directed at their movement. The full demonstration shows detection, tracking light, spoken warning, and siren escalation recorded from a working PerimeterEye system.

Does every PerimeterEye spotlight include motorized tracking?

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.

Does it follow the person as they move?

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.

Will the light confront my family, delivery drivers, or regular workers?

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.

Does tracking automatically mean the siren will sound?

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.

Can I choose how often the searchlights sweep my property?

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.

Can I aim the light or stop a response myself?

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.

How many searchlights will my property need?

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.

Can I use this with cameras I already have?

PerimeterEye offers upgrade systems for compatible existing cameras, including configurations with the Brain and active deterrence hardware. The Brain commands the searchlight as part of that system. Check camera compatibility and the selected package’s hardware before ordering.

Will a tracking searchlight guarantee that someone leaves?

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.

Your property. A directed response.
