Les systèmes de détection de mouvements. [1] Les détecteurs de passage. [...] [2] Les détecteurs de mouvements. Les modes de couverture dépendent du local à protéger. Les détecteurs offrent plusieurs solutions qui varient selon la ou les technologies employées, l'optique utilisée et son positionnement. La zone de couverture peut être de différents types : volumétrique; longue portée; rideau. Les détecteurs de mouvement peuvent analyser l'ambiance d'une pièce entière et réagir à la chaleur d'un corps humain (infrarouge), ou encore réaliser un champ de détection et capter les variations d'ultrasons ou d'hyperfréquences par effet Doppler. Une bonne couverture implique que l'on ait pris en compte avec précision les différentes possibilités d'approche d'un intrus dans la pièce sous surveillance. 4, record 2, French, - d%C3%A9tecteur%20de%20mouvement
