There is nothing as devastating as waking up to a false alarm caused by one of your furry friends. With this in mind, home security solutions companies have now come up with technologies that can prevent this from happening.
Some current motion sensors have advanced technologies that can allow pets to walk around freely without triggering any false alerts. These sensors are weight-sensitive and will only detect movements caused by persons/animals weighing more than 40 pounds. In case you own larger pets, you can as well set your detector to ignore weights that are less than 60 (or 80) pounds.
