Verox 4MP Cube Camera

FAQs

What makes the RVIPCAM suitable as a baby monitor?

The RVIPCAM is well-suited for baby monitoring applications due to several key features: two-way audio allows parents to hear and speak to their baby, the custom lullaby voice option can help soothe infants, and sound detection alerts parents to crying or unusual noises. Its compact cube design fits discreetly on shelves or tables, while the WiFi connectivity allows monitoring from anywhere via smartphone app. The camera’s low-light performance with infrared capability ensures clear visibility even in dark nursery conditions.

Does this camera work without WiFi?

The RVIPCAM is designed primarily for WiFi operation (2.4 GHz) and requires WiFi connectivity for remote viewing and app-based features. However, it can record locally to a MicroSD card (up to 256GB) even without internet connectivity, though you would not be able to view live footage remotely or receive alerts on your mobile device without WiFi connection.

What AI detection features does the RVIPCAM have?

The RVIPCAM includes AI-powered human detection and vehicle detection capabilities, as well as sound detection. These intelligent features help distinguish between different types of activity and reduce false alarms caused by irrelevant motion. The camera can identify and alert you specifically when humans or vehicles are detected, making it more efficient than basic motion detection. Note that while human detection is available, human tracking is not supported on this model.

How much storage does the camera support?

The RVIPCAM features a MicroSD card slot that supports cards up to 256GB in capacity. This local storage allows for continuous or event-based recording directly on the camera without requiring cloud storage subscriptions. The amount of footage stored will depend on the recording settings, resolution, and compression format used (H.265 offers better compression than H.264).

Can I view the camera from multiple devices simultaneously?

Yes, the RVIPCAM supports simultaneous live viewing with no restrictions on the number of viewers. However, the camera supports up to 2 registered users for account management and configuration purposes. This means multiple family members can watch the live feed at the same time, which is particularly useful for shared monitoring scenarios.

What is the video quality and frame rate?

The RVIPCAM delivers 4MP resolution (2560H × 1440V) video quality with both main stream and sub-stream support at 15 frames per second (fps). It uses H.265 or H.264 compression to balance quality and file size. The camera offers bitrate options of 256 Kbps or 1 Mbps with CBR (constant bitrate) control for consistent streaming performance.

How is the camera powered?

The RVIPCAM is powered via a Type-C USB connector requiring DC 5V 1A input. This standard power requirement means you can use most USB power adapters or power banks, providing flexibility in placement and portability. The low power consumption also makes it suitable for locations where traditional power outlets may be limited.

What privacy features does the camera offer?

The RVIPCAM includes several privacy and security features: 2 programmable polygon privacy masks allow you to block out specific areas from view, TLS 1.3 HTTPS protocol secures general data transmission, and AES256 encryption protects video stream data. These features ensure that sensitive areas can be masked and that your footage remains secure from unauthorized access.

What is the field of view of this camera?

The RVIPCAM offers a wide field of view with its 2.8mm fixed lens: 88° horizontal, 48° vertical, and 105° diagonal coverage. This wide angle is ideal for monitoring rooms, nurseries, or small offices from a single vantage point, reducing the number of cameras needed for comprehensive coverage.

Can the camera operate in extreme temperatures?

The RVIPCAM has a wide operating temperature range of -35°C to +60°C and can function in humidity levels up to 90%. While this makes it resilient to temperature variations, the plastic housing suggests it’s primarily designed for indoor use. The extreme temperature tolerance ensures reliable operation in unheated spaces, garages, or areas with significant temperature fluctuations.
