    Need to buy a camera system to detect 1" long insects in a room with no lights.

    Yeah, I know, but there is a good reason I can't do that very very unfortunately. :(

    Need to buy a camera system to detect 1" long insects in a room with no lights.

    Thanks for that detailed explanation. I currently have the cam running with ethernet attached to test out the capabilities. The IR is very clear and I fully expect that I will be able to see any of the offenders should they appear in the camera's view. Not sure which settings in the trigger is...

    Need to buy a camera system to detect 1" long insects in a room with no lights.

    Ok, not having an easy go of it. I can get the cameras to work when I have the network cable attached, but not with WiFi only. Oddly, when I choose the ethernet method of initializing the cameras, It won't see my network being broadcast. However, if I try the WiFi install option, but plug in the...

    Had a busy week at work. Will get that WiFi issue resolved this weekend.

    Need to buy a camera system to detect 1" long insects in a room with no lights.

    Cameras came today, but I apparently don't have my WIFI broadcasting on 2.4Ghz, so have to dig into my router software and change that. Heading into work now so that will have to wait. I will DL BlueIris and kick the tires. Can I assume that if I use Blue Iris that I will not need to use this...

    Need to buy a camera system to detect 1" long insects in a room with no lights.

    Thanks everyone. The cameras will arrive in 2 days. I will leave this tab open on my comp and report back my trials and tribulations. Assuming, this doesn't get lost in my line of tabs that I leave open to someday organize. Cheers, and may the bugs become camera shy and never appear again!

    Need to buy a camera system to detect 1" long insects in a room with no lights.

    You are a scholar and a gentleman! I will give it a go. Specifically, I am looking to detect silverfish, which may or may not blend in with the surroundings well enough to be difficult to detect. I will give it a try. Thanks again for your prompt reply. My faith in humanity is restored! Lol...

    Need to buy a camera system to detect 1" long insects in a room with no lights.

    So to be clear, are you suggesting that a motion detection system could detect from a view that is relatively wide? I am sure if the camera was close or zoomed in on the "offender", then it would work, but I am thinking 4 cameras in a relatively small room and want to cover 80% of the area...

    Need to buy a camera system to detect 1" long insects in a room with no lights.

    Hello, Apologies in advance if this is in the wrong area of the forums. Tried searching for anything related to how well cameras could detect a moving insect in a dark room, but no hits. Essentially, trying to find where some insects are getting into this room, and need something that will...
