Orbs or floaters

I have multiple V3’s in house and outdoors at driveway. My problem is the one in the garage. I get 25 false alerts a night from dust orbs or floaters. I really need some help trying to find a solution. My ring doorbells do not pick up this kind of stuff. I have it set to person detection on cam lite. Lowering the sensitivity to 30 did not help. I noticed when I had a V2 out there it didn’t seem as sensitive. I understand the night vision improvements but is there a way to better filter these floaters

The garage probably has a lot of dust and other things that could be seen on the camera so that could be why you see so many there, but there’s not much you can do unfortunately. Since these orbs appear so big and bright in the camera the AI can fail sometimes and think it’s a person. If you disable the night vision IR lights and instead leave a little night light in the garage you may be able to reduce the amount of orbs seen

The reflection from the IR emitters on the particles mere millimeters from the lens is what you are seeing.

Keep night vision on. Disable the IR emitters. Install a small IR floodlight away from the cam for your IR light source that will come on in low light.

We need a “Cam Fan” accessory.

Keeps the floaters and webs away :grin:
