Ok, one example how and when to use this kind of camera:
Lots of new PTZ cameras have IR illuminator with long distance, but how operator (or camera) can know where to zoom in and illuminate target? Auto patrol? If camera can cover 270° of terrain, and its in auto patrol, using around 9° angle to recognize person. So there is 9/270 (30%) chance that it will find un-moving target and provide detail.
This camera can detect target (ignoring foliage movement, shadows, lights, animals) and move camera to the right direction. Even help with auto-tracking using right software.

I use mine for checking my field for Coyotes before letting my dogs out late at night. Its hard to see them out by the treeline with a flashlight, and impossible with a regular camera. Coyotes out by me travel in packs and would have no problems jumping the fence to get to any of my dogs. I think my Blue Nose would put up a good fight if there were only a few, but I don't want to find out.

Thanks to @bp2008 for the heads up on the smoking deal on the HiK

Looks like dog can be heat detected.
:D I test the put a phone at some hidden place also can show the heating. The alarms inside the camera also have No phone Here, please leave.

The deeper orange means the car parking a little while.

I put my finger behind the curtain, 3-4 seconds it will show the heat. :D

Why did they not do a 1/1.8 sensor instead of 1/2.7? Seems like a total no-brainer on a camera for the dark!

I have this camera (turret version) arriving hopefully this week. Really looking forward to something different from all my other cams :)
