Overview
A motorized pan and tilt head lets each of these Arlo outdoor cameras sweep the whole yard and follow moving people or vehicles on its own. Plug-in power runs them continuously, and dual-band Wi-Fi links them to the Arlo app.
Arlo removes battery charging and blind spots with wired pan and tilt cameras, sold as a pair. Smart detection, video history and emergency response need an Arlo Secure plan after the trial, and the cameras do not work with Arlo base stations.
Who it's for

Performance notes
Coverage comes from the motor sweeping the lens around a full circle and up and down, with auto tracking following subjects. Color night vision and the spotlight light up night scenes, while digital zoom crops for closer looks. Dual-band Wi-Fi joins the stronger band.
