Tilt and Scan
This camera allows you to tilt and scan across a room. It already has an 85-degree field of vision over whatever you see. That can cover half a room when sitting on a table, or you can see an entire room if the camera sits in an upper corner close to the ceiling.
The pan and tilt gives you the ability to see 360 degrees. The camera fluidly and effortlessly moves up and down to give you the best possible view of the scene. The zoom feature brings the action closer to your field of vision.
Two-Way Communication
Amcrest’s system includes two-way communication technology. Each camera has a microphone and speaker embedded within it. You can hear what’s going on within the room, and you can talk to whoever’s listening.
This makes the camera perfect as a baby monitor or as a way you can check in on your pets when you’re away from home. You can communicate with your baby or pet through your smartphone or computer, depending on which device you have in front of you.
Night Vision
The night vision sensor reaches up to 32 feet away from the camera. This comes in handy when you want to keep an eye on young children as they sleep at night. Set a camera up in a garage, mud room or pet area to watch any puppies or kittens that may need your attention during evening hours.
The 12 infrared LEDs give you a view of the room without generating any light themselves. The night vision happens without adding any light to the area.
HD Quality
