you can position it in any direction you want.
We recommendthat you mount Oscar at around3 metres
above the ground, this is the ideal position for Oscar to
sense movement, see faces andtalk through the speaker
andmicrophone.
Ensure that Oscar is mounted in a position that allows you
to see overa large area of yourhome andsurroundings
with an unblocked, clearview.
Test the Wi-Fi signal
Before mounting Oscar, we recommendthat you test the
Wi-Fistrength in the area that you’d like to place it. Ensure
Oscar is still plugged in to a mains power supply andtake
it outdoors.
Hold Oscar in the position that you
would like to mount it and check that
the live stream is working well in
the app.
