Security systems and surveillance camera manufacturer Reolink has launched its new TrackFlex Floodlight WiFi camera with AI-powered features in Australia.
The hardwired 4K floodlight camera with pan, tilt and zoom capabilities has a 2-in-1 dual-lens design, offering 360-degree coverage to capture wide areas across open spaces.
The dual-lens system autonomously switches between focal lengths to track moving subjects. It ensures that the camera captures crystal-clear detail both near and far, eliminating the blurry focus lag otherwise found on conventional single-lens cameras.
Both the wide-angle view powered by the 4K lens and the close-up detail view enabled by the 6x hybrid lens are displayed simultaneously on one screen in the Reolink App.
The camera’s 270-degree out-of-view detection ability stems from its built-in array of three passive infrared sensors. It can continuously detect motion at distances ranging from two to 10 metres within the ultra-wide 270-degree zone. When mounted at the ideal height of two to three metres, it provides broad coverage across large areas.
TrackFlex offers up to 3000 Lumens Dimmable LEDs, delivering vibrant, full-colour footage without issues such as detail and colour loss in low-light conditions.
The camera also features a 110-decibel automatic siren to deter potential intruders.
Additionally, it supports adjustable colour temperature settings (6500K cool light or 3000K warm light), allowing users to customise the lighting to their preferences.
Users are able to manually adjust the lighting or let the automatic setting select the best option according to ambient light.
As for its AI features, the camera is powered by the ReoNeura AI system, featuring Local AI Video Search.
This on-device AI capability enables users to quickly retrieve relevant videos through text descriptions like ‘man in a blue shirt’, removing the need for time-consuming manual searches.
The system can automatically identify people, vehicles, animals and even packages. All processing is done locally on the device, ensuring privacy of captured data.
Other camera manufacturers are also increasingly embedding AI capabilities into their camera surveillance systems. Genetec, for example, last year announced a new AI-backed automation tool to streamline video searches. The tool works within its Security Centre SaaS (software as a service) and helps operators quickly locate video evidence, understand the context surrounding an event and resolve cases swiftly.
