Motion to trigger lawn sprinkler - How to?

I've done a fair amount of research but haven't come up with anything yet. I want to trigger my lawn sprinklers every time one of my ring cameras detects motion. Anyone have any ideas on how to work this out?

    I think it's possible by using the ring lighting transformer to do it. The doorbell has a setting that if it detects motion, it will turn on the landscape lights. I think some sprinkler solenoids work of 12VAC. In theory you should be able to turn on the sprinklers when the doorbell detects motion. I've been thinking about doing this to scare the birds away from my pond because they eat my koi!
