The name "camera" works well for a device recording images or videos. The name doesn't work well for audio (only) recording devices. While we haven't fully considered those devices, Camtrap DP probably has a good model and terms to exchange that data.
It might therefore be useful to be already change term names to use a more general:
I think camera trap folk might still recognize it as an applicable name and it would prevent us from having to change the term names in the future if we broaden the scope. More generic names also allow other standards to refer to it.
Definitions could refer to "device", "camera or other recording device" or "camera" (when specific to camera), example:
Maximum distance at which the cameradevice can reliably detect activity. Expressed in meters. For cameras, typically measured by having a human move in front of the cameradevice.

Discussed with @kbubnicki, we both agree on device as name change. Since we currently don't have a real use case for non-camera devices, we have moved this to 1.x. For software that has to support Camtrap DP 1.0 it is fairly trivial to rename terms.
