Image quality
The 3K, or 5-megapixel, lens offers great image quality to keep an eye on a front yard, backyard or garage. The applied H.265 image compression technology ensures that high-quality recordings and streams take up relatively little space and thus require less bandwidth. In this way, the available storage space and bandwidth can be used optimally. The Imou Cruiser security camera uses 2.4GHz Wi-Fi with a
dual antenna for longer range. Besides a wireless connection, this camera has an Ethernet port for wired connection.

Smart tracking and night vision
The Cruiser 2C 3K outdoor camera accurately identifies people and vehicles with its AI detection function. False alarms from animals or falling leaves, for example, are thereby prevented. Upon detection, the camera tracks movement thanks to the PTZ function with Smart Tracking. Combined with a 110dB siren and flashing spotlights, this security camera deters any unwanted visitor. This 5-megapixel camera also provides good security at night thanks to its 4 night vision modes; 1. Smart night vision: when it gets dark, the camera uses infrared to display greyscale images. As soon as the camera detects a person, the built-in spotlights are activated to record in colour. 2. Colour night vision: when it gets dark, the camera activates the built-in spotlights to record images in colour. 3. Infrared night vision: when it gets dark, the camera uses infrared for greyscale images. 4. Night vision off
