Forget ordinary security cameras! This $279 smart camera literally puts intruders in the spotlight
The world's first security camera with a tracking spotlight is here – and it watches your home in 360 degrees
Baseus has introduced its latest security innovation - the Security U2 Pro, a smart camera promising to put intruders in the spotlight. This $279.99 system features two 3K cameras, one fixed and the other motorized, working together to monitor an area with 360-degree coverage. While the fixed camera constantly surveys a specific zone, the second one tracks movement across the entire property.
What sets the U2 Pro apart is its dedicated tracking spotlight beam, a first in the home security industry. Unlike traditional motion-activated lighting that merely illuminates an area, Baseus has engineered a motorized beam that actively follows a moving target, making any unwanted visitor the center of attention. In testing, the system successfully tracked people moving at distances between 3 and 8 meters (10 to 26 feet), with even sprinters staying within the spotlight's reach at 5 meters or more.
The cameras come equipped with dual motion sensors and AI-powered recognition, differentiating between people, pets, vehicles, and other movement to minimize false alerts caused by natural elements like the wind. Contextual alerts can be sent explaining the detected activity, and footage can be stored locally on up to 512GB of encrypted storage.
Two-way audio further enhances the system, enabling direct communication with visitors or warnings to unwanted guests through the Baseus Security app. Compatibility with Alexa and Google Home ensures seamless integration into smart home ecosystems.
With IP65 weather resistance and a 7,800mAh rechargeable battery, the U2 Pro promises 150 days of operation without solar assistance, while a 3W solar panel can provide a full day of power under the right conditions. Priced at $279.99, this innovative security solution could prove a valuable addition to any home's defense mechanism.
