Clear day and night images – thanks to 3K 5MP lens with F1.6 aperture
2880 x 1616 pixel resolution paired with an F1.6 aperture increases light intake, while 3K night vision preserves detail after dark. The larger aperture helps reduce noise in low-light scenes.
Sharp footage makes it easier to identify faces and small details during both day and night, useful for baby monitoring and checking who is at the door.
Smarter alerts with fewer false alarms – with AI-powered people, pet and crying detection
Onboard AI classifies motion events into people, pets and crying sounds, filtering out routine motion that would otherwise trigger notifications. Classification reduces irrelevant push alerts.
Notifications concentrate on meaningful events, so attention is drawn to genuine concerns rather than repeated motion alerts.
Continuous local recording and flexible playback – thanks to microSD and NVR/FTP support
Supports microSD cards up to 512GB and integrates with Reolink NVR, Home Hub/Home Hub Pro, or FTP/NAS via RTSP/ONVIF. Default settings allow around 8 days of continuous recording at 3072kps.
Local storage keeps footage under household control and permits continuous recording through brief Wi‑Fi interruptions without monthly subscription fees.
