1 Introduction
1.1 General Description
The Bushnell Trophy Cam is a digital scouting camera. It can be trigged
by any movement of live animals in a location, detected by a highly
sensitive Passive Infra-Red (PIR) motion sensor, and then take high
quality pictures (up to 5MP still photos), or video clips.
The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM consumes very little power (less than
300μA) in a stand-by (surveillance) state. This means it can have up to
six months stand-by operation time when the device is powered by
eight AA alkaline batteries, and up to twelve months utilizing lithium
AA batteries. Once motion in the monitored area is detected, the digital
camera unit will be triggered at once (typically within one second)
and then automatically take pictures or videos according to previously
programmed settings. The TROPHY CAM is equipped with built-in
infrared LEDs that function as a flash, so that it deliver clear images or
videos (in black & white) even in the dark, and it can take color pictures
or videos under sufficient daylight. The device is designed for outdoor
use and is resistant against water and snow.

scouting. It can also be used as a surveillance device.
