If you want to monitor two surveillance points at the same time, the Xiaomi Smart Camera C500 Dual is definitely a good option. You can control two simultaneous video inputs on the same device.
This is a version of the popular C500 camera but with a dual lens. This system allows us to keep the focus fixed on one point using one lens and rotate the other to view the desired point. The upper part offers a rotating and tilting system up to 109º, and it can also track and detect moving targets for active surveillance. This allows us to cover a wide field of view, as we are not limited to a horizontal area.
To start it up and view the images it provides in real time, we will need to use the Xiaomi Home app to manage it.
Features of the Xiaomi Smart Camera C500 Dual
The small Xiaomi C500 Dual offers two cameras with a 4 MP sensor that will give us high quality 2592 x 1520 images. Videos can be saved locally on its microSD card in h.265 format, taking up less space. It is also possible to save videos on our home network by specifying a location.
The network system uses 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi, offering maximum compatibility and good range. At the rear, there is a speaker for sending your voice, a microphone for capturing audio, and an infrared LED system for seeing in the dark or in low light.
