Motion Detection

Freaking mystery. I have a arlo pro overlooking my driveway and the street. I want to see when my kid gets off the BIG , ORANGE SCHOOL BUS. He has gotten off the bus 5 times this week but it has not triggered the camera once. I have experimented with different camera locations but no luck. Today I got fifteen various vehicle recordings. But not the freaking bus. Does anybody have a thought???

Can you post a clip?

Distance is your enemy. You should keep your field of view no more than 20 feet. out. Additionally, the motion detection picks up better from the sides rather than straight on.

A clip of what? I agree about the 20 ft limit. But the mystery is that I am capturing everything but the stealthy school bus. I have captures from today of cars, trucks, mailman, garbage truck.

Sometimes the lighting(High/Low) on the outside or inside can affect it.

Tou can post your recordings. This way we can see what your seeing.
Does the bus come from a different direction or angle of the other vehicles?
Without seeing what the camera is seeing, everything is speculation.
