    Needing an outdoor PoE setup cameras

    I took your advice and got hold of this: IPS-Color4k-B180. It has wide coverage, 2-way talk and can even track. Seems to have a good sensor (size wise). Then also there's IPC-Color4k-T180. Not sure of the difference but the "T" is a little cheaper.

    I just called and asked. He said about a company called Empire Tech something which has some PTZ which has advanced AI driven functions allowing the camera to self track and follow movements.

    I apologize this topic never came up. Obviously as he does such heavy complex industrial he's used to 24 x 7 monitoring so he never thought of this. May I ask why for a home which doesn't have 24 x 7 PTZ aren't recommended?

    Please permit me to clarify - everything he gave me is from his truck, temporarily. He has already taken everything away. I am in NJ and there's a huge Amazon warehouse being constructed and he's designing the outside security. So he happens to have a bunch of these commercial grade cameras and...

    Actually that's the type of setup temporarily what my friend did. He works in a company and the company doesn't sell to home owners and their products are prohibitively expensive anyways.
