1. A security camera device comprising:
a camera having a field of view (FOV);
one or more processors; and
one or more computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the security camera device to perform operations comprising:
receiving first image data generated by the camera;
detecting, based at least in part on the first image data, first motion associated with a first portion of the FOV, the first portion of the FOV being less than an entirety of the FOV;
determining an object type for an object detected within a first portion of the first image data, the first portion of the first image data corresponding to the first portion of the FOV, and the object type indicating that the object is a person;
determining a time window associated with the first portion of the FOV of the camera;
determining that a first time associated with the first image data is within the time window associated with the first portion of the FOV of the camera;
based at least in part on the object type being a person object type, the detecting the first motion associated with the first portion of the FOV, and the determining that the first time is within the time window, sending a first indication associated with the first motion to one or more computing devices.
