Yeah, that’s pretty intelligent and very handy. No need to record everything 24/7 only the movements you’re interested in. Or – which I quite like – draw a line across the drive way and choose from which direction people or cars will be detected.Įvery detection will generate an alert and will be recorded in the cloud to be viewed there or can be downloaded. So I can create a boxed outline for the area I’m interested in, namely the driveway. The camera also sees traffic on the road which I want to exclude from triggering a detection alert. (I’d show you a screenshot but that would not be so smart, security-wise, right?) For instance, my camera looks out from my office onto the long driveway, part of the carport and front yard. It sure is Intelligent but there’s more to Artificial Intelligence than that… However, you can set up to four detection zones. With a bit of marketing speak D-Link claims it is AI based. Even though it’s wide-angled there’s not too much distortion at the edges. Let’s highlight a couple of these features.Īrguably one of the better picture resolutions around: full HD with 30 frames per second meaning everything gets recorded as you would see it live. * Latest 128-bit wireless encryption for enhanced security * Cloud Recording: Record to the Cloud and view from anywhere or record on an SD card up to a capacity of 256 GB * Premium Full HD Clarity: True Full HD 1080p resolution 30 fps with night vision * Wide angle of 151° to see more with one camera * Built-in Smart Home Hub means setup is a lot easier * It’s compatible of course with mydlink Smart Home devices but also plays nice with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and IFTTT * It has Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) for smart motion detection These are some of the specifications that make it stand out: The unit is small, lightweight and meant for indoor use (there are also outdoor units, with similar specs). It’s quite a generic name but is also known by its model number DCS-8330LH. That’s why we chose the Smart Full HD Wi-Fi Camera from D-Link. And you can start small – with just one camera for instance.
In essence: all the various components of what constitutes a “smart home” can be controlled by this app. We think it deserves a separate write up and here’s why.ĭ-Link has been a trusted source of gear for networking and cameras for home security for quite a long time.Īnd trust is an important consideration when you talk about surveillance and security.ĭ-Link has their own nice ecosystem of getting people to set up their smart home, based around the mydlink app. One interesting camera that doesn’t need a NAS also passed the revue: the mydlink Smart Full HD Wi-Fi Camera. Whilst doing research to test and review a Surveillance Station based on a Synology NAS platform, we looked at various cameras for that role.
