Extra Info
SMD Plus (Smart Motion Detection Plus)
Advanced AI filters out irrelevant movement like pets, shadows, and weather effects, focusing only on:
-
Human and vehicle detection
- Minimizing false alerts
- Delivering reliable notifications you can act on
Perfect for busy environments where traditional motion detection generates too many false alarms.
Perimeter Protection
Draw virtual zones on the camera’s view to trigger alerts for:
- Tripwire crossings
- Intrusion detection
- AI differentiates between a person or a car, reducing nuisance alerts
- Helps prioritize real threats and act fast
Useful for fenced areas, gates, driveways, or building perimeters.
WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
Improves visibility in challenging lighting by balancing the image’s dark and bright parts:
- Prevents washed-out backgrounds at entrances or glass doors
- Reveals details in shadows and bright spots
- Ensures clear facial features and object details
Ideal for lobbies, shops, and parking garages with mixed lighting.
Built-in Audio
The integrated microphone:
- Captures ambient sound and conversations
- Adds context to footage (e.g., arguments, alarms, or activity sounds)
- Supports incident verification beyond video-only evidence
Great for retail, reception areas, or indoor corridors.
Smart Codec (H.265+/H.264+)
Efficient video compression without sacrificing image quality:
- Saves up to 70% on storage and bandwidth
- Keeps footage smooth and clear even during busy scenes
- Works well with remote streaming and cloud storage
A practical feature for large deployments or long-term recording needs.
