The DH-IPC-HDW3666TP-ZS-AUS is a 6MP vari-focal eyeball camera from Dahua’s WizSense range, equipped with smart AI features including SMD 4.0, AI SSA, and perimeter protection. With motorized zoom, starlight low-light performance, and built-in microphone, it’s ideal for versatile indoor and outdoor surveillance.
Key Features
-
6MP Resolution (3072 × 2048 @30fps) – Crisp image detail for high-security environments.
-
Motorized Vari-focal Lens (2.7–13.5mm) – Flexible viewing angle from 99° wide to 28° narrow.
-
SMD 4.0 – Filters out non-human/vehicle objects, reducing false motion alarms.
-
AI Scene Self-Adaptation (AI SSA) – Auto-adjusts image settings to suit weather and lighting conditions.
-
IR Night Vision up to 40m – Delivers clear B/W video in complete darkness.
-
Built-in Mic – Captures environmental audio for enhanced situational awareness.
-
AI Coding (AI H.265/H.264) – Reduces storage and bandwidth with intelligent compression.
-
IP67 Weatherproof – Resistant to dust, rain, and harsh outdoor conditions.
-
MicroSD Slot up to 256GB – Record locally if network fails.

Perfect For:
- Building perimeters
- Commercial and retail entrances
- Car parks and driveways
- Warehouse interiors
- School and hospital corridors
Install Tips
- Use the motorized zoom for easy focusing after installation—no need for manual lens adjustment.
- For wide-area coverage, keep at 2.7mm; zoom in to 13.5mm for focused monitoring (e.g. entrances or gates).
- Works best with Dahua AI NVRs for full use of Quick Pick and refined smart search.
- Ensure proper sealing if used outdoors—IP67 protects against water and dust.
- PoE simplifies installation with a single cable for power and data.

Extra Info
Smart Motion Detection 4.0 (SMD 4.0)
Powered by AI, SMD 4.0 intelligently distinguishes between human and vehicle motion while ignoring common false triggers such as pets, raindrops, insects, or shadows. This reduces unnecessary alerts and improves the efficiency of security monitoring—ideal for high-traffic or outdoor environments where standard motion detection would produce excessive noise.
AI Scene Self-Adaption (AI SSA)
With real-time environmental sensing, AI SSA dynamically adjusts video settings including brightness, contrast, gain, and white balance. Whether the scene is affected by fog, rain, harsh lighting, flicker, or low illumination, the camera optimizes image clarity without the need for manual configuration—ensuring dependable performance in any weather or lighting condition.
Smart Compression with AI Coding
Using scene-based AI learning, this camera delivers superior video compression with Smart H.265+ or H.264+, reducing bandwidth and storage demands by up to 70%. Unlike traditional codecs, AI coding adapts to visual complexity—preserving important detail in motion zones while compressing static areas more aggressively.
Quick Pick with AI NVR
When connected to a Dahua AI NVR, the Quick Pick function allows you to instantly retrieve recorded footage that involves only human or vehicle motion. This saves valuable time in reviewing incidents and helps streamline investigations, particularly in high-activity zones.
Cybersecurity Ready
The system is built with enterprise-grade cybersecurity protections, including secure boot processes, end-to-end encryption, multi-level user access control, and compliance with international security standards. These features protect against unauthorized access, data breaches, and system tampering—making it suitable for sensitive installations in commercial, industrial, or public-sector environments.
