Motion detector camera
First Claim
1. A motion detector camera comprising:
- a camera mechanism mounted inside a housing;
a motion detector exposed on a surface of the housing;
a controller for controlling the camera mechanism in response to signals received from the motion detector; and
a DC jack mounted to the housing to receive external DC power.

Abstract
A motion detector camera includes a camera mechanism mounted inside a housing, a motion detector exposed on a surface of the housing, and a controller for controlling the camera mechanism in response to signals received from the motion detector. The camera can include an activity counter mounted to the housing. The controller activates the camera mechanism when the controller receives a triggering signal from the motion detector, or the controller activates the activity counter and does not activate the camera mechanism when a triggering activity occurs. The camera can include digital camera electronics. A camera support can be used to removably mount the camera to an object such as a tree.

8. A motion detector camera comprising:
-
a housing; a camera mechanism mounted within the housing; a power source connected to the camera mechanism; a motion detector exposed on a surface of the housing; a controller operatively coupled to the camera mechanism and the motion detector, wherein the controller is adapted to send an activation signal to the camera mechanism when the controller receives a triggering signal from the motion detector; and an indicator on a surface of the housing to indicate when the power source is low on power; and wherein the controller includes a test mode, wherein when put into the test mode, the controller causes a test indicator to activate but does not cause the camera mechanism to take a picture. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11)
