Xiaomi has a new, smart surveillance camera in the pipeline, set to launch globally. The Smart Camera C302 is a mobile model that covers large areas with just one camera. Smart features are on board, such as sound- and smart person detection.
The Xiaomi Smart Camera C302 appears to be getting a global launch, as indicated by the camera's listing on the global Xiaomi website. As a rather compact model, the C302 is designed for indoor use and supports smart functions and motion detection.
The smart camera can rotate around its own axis, allowing a single camera to monitor a large area. It has a video resolution of 2,304 x 1,296, which should allow details to be displayed in impressive quality. Xiaomi has improved the infrared lighting, which is intended to allow clear images to be captured without people being disturbed by the glow of the IR LEDs.
According to Xiaomi, users can be recognized by the camera and also tracked. This can be useful in the case of parents who do not wish to leave their infants unsupervised. Furthermore, users can define zones in which the camera is active, thus avoiding false alarms. Smart sound detection is also advertised, meaning that the camera can detect unusual noises, such as a baby crying. WiFi 6 is available, and videos can be stored on a memory card. Further features include a microphone, a speaker and voice control.
Information on price and launch is still pending.
Integration with Alexa and Google Home is possible. (Image source: Xiaomi)

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

Growing up in regional Australia, I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study philosophy and anthropology. I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
