Sadly the lack of IR is a killer for some use cases, its a funky little camera and going to be interesting to see where UI go with the platform

Interesting camera, I feel there will be a lot of use case scenarios for this set up where you want to keep security a bit more masked- thanks for the video!

can't say i understand the purpose of providing two CAMERAs (they aren't merely lenses), but you can use only one per hub at a time. unless i'm misunderstanding something, these "lenses" as they like to refer to them actually do contain the CCD chip and glass lens, they just don't contain the processing guts, which are remotely located in the hub. am i not correct?!

Not understanding why people are concerned about the lack of IR, and reading licence plates ?
The IR on all my G4 pro’s merely light up the licence plate up to where it’s just a blown out and unrecognizable blotch of bright light at night . I’m not sure, but maybe there’s a frequency of light that would work better, but I don’t think it’s been looked into very deeply.
Also, when vehicles are blasting down my alley, even during the day, their plates are blurred out from the fast motion . Wouldn’t a camera with a different refresh rate improve this to a point ?

Hello,

Did you ever find out if the 2nd port on the block was able to be utilized for the camera?
If so, would the block support two cameras?
This would be awesome, as you would be able to buy one block for every two

20fps is plenty for cctv, and gives much better quality still shots when you pause your video in the event you need to look closer to recognise someone or items.
Higher FPS takes up more recording space and although it can make motion video clearer, it degrades still viewing.

The audio option works great. My only suggestion for UniFi is that they add a dewarping utility for downloaded 360 footage. Viewing the 360 camera live or only in the NVR playback limits its usefulness. Does the indoor 360 camera have the same limitation?

The installation instructions that comes with the AI Theta is misleading. It shows the main unit being installed inside the wall. That's a terrible way to install it and I'm not aware of building codes that would allow that anyway. I would have preferred the electronics designed to fit into a single or double-junction box which is a much more standardized installation solution.

I’m a fan, hoping the license plate reading functionality means an optional outdoor lens is on the horizon, as well as an external IR attachment which could be plugged in instead of the audio/mic attachment.

I think the cable is short on purpose? Like the idea is that you run Poe to where the camera is, and then the box is mounted on the other side of the wall to where the lens is mounted.

thank you so much for this video.
I have been thinking about getting one to replace the G3 Micro in the play room but I need that longer cable because I don't think the processing box can handle being in my attic with 120+F temps.

How are we supposed to mount this on a drywall or ceiling if has a plastic nut that screws from the back of the mount? i was hoping some kind of mount design like a recessed light has.

I have a Theta also and am disappointed that it only registers as HD on my NVR and not 4K.

I am wondering if that 7mp instead of 12mp is a reason behind that? Their video on the UI store page still advertises it as a 4K camera

Can't wait to test this at our lighted parking garage. Probably have to 3d print some sort of enclosure.

Can you do a review on the AI Theta Professional ?

Is there a way to turn off the License plate in playback?

Interesting the zoom levels weren't the same on the pixel test

If only there was a way to replace a standard door peephole viewer with this AI Theta camera.

I have a question should UNVR be on the main lan or the camera vlan?
