Why won't Wyze Cam detect pets

 

Reasons Wyze Cam Might Not Detect Pets

 

  • **Camera Placement:** The camera might be placed too high or at an angle that misses the pet's movement, making it harder to detect smaller creatures compared to humans.
  •  

  • **Sensitivity Settings:** Wyze Cam has sensitivity settings for motion detection, and if set too low, it might not register smaller movements, which are common with pets.
  •  

  • **Algorithm Limitations:** Wyze Cam primarily focuses on human detection. The machine learning algorithms used might not recognize pet movements as distinctive events.
  •  

  • **Blocked View:** Objects like furniture or decorations could obstruct the camera's view, preventing it from detecting pet movement.
  •  

  • **Lighting Conditions:** Pets might not be detected in poor lighting or extremely bright lights as shadows and bright spots can confuse the motion detection algorithm.

 

How to Fix Wyze Cam Pet Detection

 

  • **Adjust Camera Placement:** Ensure the camera is positioned low enough or at an angle that gives a clear view of areas where pets frequent, such as floors or specific paths.
  •  

  • **Increase Sensitivity:** Go to the settings of the Wyze Cam app and increase the motion detection sensitivity to capture even smaller movements.
  •  

  • **Use Detection Zones:** Set specific zones in the app to focus on areas where pets typically move, minimizing interference from branches, curtains or other common motion triggers.
  •  

  • **Regular Maintenance:** Keep the camera lens clean and free of obstructions so it captures a clear view of the intended area.
  •  

  • **Test in Various Light Conditions:** Adjust the lighting in the room or use the night vision feature to ensure consistent detection capability during different times of the day.
