Zyxel's camera called Aurora has arrived
A new multifunction night vision camera appeared on the market courtesy of Zyxel in Taiwan. Named Aurora, the device offers users an alternative to securing their homes with Full HD resolution, night mode and real-time mobile notifications.
Whether keeping an eye on young children or pets, or even monitoring a garage entrance, the device captures events in Full HD, i.e. 1080p resolution, even in low light.
By enabling the 2-way audio feature, users can also access clear audio recordings and even message children or talk to their dog through a mobile app. The camera's 16GB of built-in storage is up to 168 hours of high-quality footage. Thanks to its triangular shape, the Aurora can be easily mounted on both magnetic and flat surfaces, and stands on secure legs on walls and ceilings. With a 145-degree viewing angle, the camera can monitor multiple rooms at once.
With the app available for Aurora, users can set up three options: record and monitor videos, zone discovery and event-based recording for precise area monitoring, or request instant push notifications if they detect a suspicious event.
Aurora is also compatible with Synology NVR and Surveillance Station, making scalable cloud storage, intelligent video analysis and multi-cam surveillance available on a single screen. Aurora's accessories - eg alarm clock, PoE modules - are expected from the manufacturer in the second half of the year.
