at 15 frames per second. It features a super wide 2.8mm angled lens which provides a full 129° viewing angle. The
camera features three different night vision modes which allows the camera to view objects at night up to 49ft
away. It features an IR mode, which allows the camera to use the IR LEDs to see at night, a white light mode, which
allows the camera to use a white light LED to illuminate the area and provide color night vision, and a smart
illumination mode, which allows the camera to use IR LEDs to see at night, however, when a motion is detected,
the white light LEDs will flash providing an active deterrent at night.
The camera also features a built-in microphone, on-board motion detection, built-in AI features, such as face
detection, IVS, which can be used for enhanced perimeter protection, and smart motion detection which allows
the camera to detect only human and vehicles in the area. The camera also features flexible storage options to
