How to quickly find out if there are security cameras in your home?

For wireless, use a radio. Tune the radio to a medium wave band (AM or WM) and a frequency with no radio stations. Walk around the room with the radio. If the radio is there, it will make a buzzing noise. And the closer you are to the hidden camera, the louder the noise will be. You can also detect infrared emitters. If you point the remote at the radio to test the remote, the radio will make a loud buzzing noise. Cameras with breakers but no infrared will need to be visually checked, but they usually require an external power source and are likely in a place where you can "see" all the electronics being used.

Any wireless transmitters that are turned on will affect your phone's signal, allowing you to check if there is any noise.

How do I find a pinhole camera in a hotel room?

All cameras will show a red light next to the lens when working, firstly, observe all corners and crevices in the room, then turn off all the lights in the room and see if there is a red light (it's relatively dark so look carefully), if not, you don't have a pinhole camera.

If it's wireless you can use a wireless detector (there are many available on the internet), if it's wired it can be very difficult if the hotel installed it.

Check whether the height and position of the power outlet in the room is higher than the bed. Is there a fire alarm in the room? Is there a vent in the bathroom? If you pull up the waterproof curtain from about 45 degrees above the bathtub, you can see the vent, and there is a high possibility that there is a camera there. How is the bathroom mirror installed? What is the relationship between the drain pipe and the wall? How is the toilet installed from the wall? In what position is the power outlet in the bathroom facing? It is recommended to plug the smartphone charger into the power source. If there is a small recess in the sound-absorbing material on the ceiling of the bathroom, it may be a pinhole camera. Check whether the air conditioner in the room is a blowing outlet when it is turned on and off. And the outer shell and heat exhaust of the TV, speaker, etc.
