Homes With Pets
Will my dog or cat be forced to stay in the laundry room when
I arm my
burglar alarm system?Not
unless you want them to. Most motion detectors are Passive
Infra-Red detectors, or PIR for
short. Passive, because they do not emit anything, and
infrared, because they detect infrared radiation (in this case,
body heat). Specialized detectors have been developed to
reject the heat signature of pets, of up to 100 lbs. These
detectors are known as pet immune detectors.
In addition to pet immune detectors, flex
sensors can be utilized underneath the floor. People walking
in a house normally cause the beams below to flex, and sensors can
be installed to detect this flexing. These devices can be
adjusted to ignore the weight of small dogs and cats.
We can design a system that will work in
your home environment.
