Aqara has announced the global release of its first outdoor surveillance camera, the Camera Hub G5 Pro. This product is designed to enhance security around the home with advanced features. The camera records in 2.6K Quad HD and includes True Color Night Vision to capture clear images even in low-light conditions. It is equipped with on-device artificial intelligence to detect important events, such as the presence of individuals or potential theft, and it can initiate actions to prevent intrusions. The camera integrates with major smart home systems and supports the RTSP protocol, allowing it to fit into existing security setups.
The G5 Pro also functions as a multi-protocol hub, extending the capabilities of a smart home network. It supports multiple smart home protocols and can manage both Aqara and third-party smart devices. This makes it suitable for those looking to construct their own security systems. Several features of the camera include a 4MP resolution, a wide field of view, and advanced night vision. The camera’s design includes a f/1.0 aperture for improved low-light performance and a sensor that enhances image clarity. It also features a dimmable spotlight and a speaker for two-way communication and deterring intruders.
Local artificial intelligence is built into the device for detecting various objects and sounds, even during internet outages. The camera recognizes faces, vehicles, people, packages, animals, and can even detect if the camera lens is obstructed. These capabilities enable the camera to capture critical events and automate responses. Additionally, the G5 Pro integrates with popular platforms such as Apple Home, Google Home, and Alexa, supporting PoE and True Color Night Vision. It also streams to compatible smart displays and supports local area network streaming with RTSP.
Security is further enhanced with end-to-end encryption for video footage, ensuring only authorized users can access it. The camera supports local storage, cloud sync, and local NAS backups for secure data management. The device is available in both PoE and Wi-Fi versions, offering flexible connectivity options with enhanced security features.
Designed with durability in mind, the G5 Pro has an IP65-rated weather-resistant build, capable of withstanding extreme temperatures and resisting moisture and dust. This ensures it can operate in various outdoor conditions, providing protection throughout the year.
