【Year-end and New Year Absence Measures】 From indoors to the parking lot! A camera with dual lenses that won’t miss a thing
During the year-end and New Year period, when opportunities to be away from home increase, security concerns are a bit worrisome. With rising incidents, it’s more important than ever to have a camera that can watch over a wide area for peace of mind. With Tapo's first model equipped with dual lenses, you won’t miss any decisive moments thanks to the dual monitoring of wide-angle and telephoto views.
Are your measures against being away during the New Year's holiday all set?
The smart home brand "Tapo" has announced the indoor and outdoor dual lens pan-tilt security Wi-Fi camera "Tapo C246D" and the indoor and outdoor pan-tilt security Wi-Fi camera "Tapo C236." Let's take a look at their features.
The "Tapo C246D" is Tapo's first camera equipped with dual lenses. It features a fixed lens (wide angle) with a 125° field of view and a pan-tilt lens (6mm telephoto), allowing for extensive areas to be captured in detail. By monitoring two directions simultaneously, it achieves more efficient security measures.
It is equipped with a smart focus function that allows the two lenses to work together. By tapping on an area within the shooting range of the fixed lens in the app, the pan-tilt lens automatically adjusts its orientation. You can instantly check the area of concern, providing peace of mind in case of an emergency.
Additionally, when the fixed lens detects motion, it supports smart tracking, where the pan-tilt lens automatically continues to follow the movement. This ensures that the subject remains within the camera's field of view, so you won't miss the critical moment.
