Introduction About the Rhino Cam The Rhino Cam is a digital scouting and surveillance camera. It is triggered by any movement of game in a location, detected by a highly sensitive Passive Infra-Red (PIR) motion sensor and then takes high quality pictures (up to 12MP still photos) or video clips. The Rhino Cam consumes very little power in a standby (surveillance) state. This means it can deliver up to month s stand-by operation time when the device is powered by lithium batteries. Once motion in the monitored area is detected, the digital camera unit will be triggered at once (typically less than one second) and then automatically take photos or videos according to previously programmed settings. The Rhino Cam is equipped with built-in black light infrared LEDs that function as a flash, so that it delivers clear photos or videos (in black & white) even in the dark and it can take colour photos or videos under sufficient daylight. The Rhino Cam is designed for outdoor use and is resistant against water and snow, wind and sunlight. The Rhino Cam can be used as a trail camera for hunting or scouting game. It is also suitable for surveillance usage. 2
