You can find out more about setting up eufyCam 2C and various functions that can be used through the app by reading the following article.
I installed a multifunctional surveillance camera 'eufyCam 2C' that can record full HD wirelessly and save data in local storage - GIGAZINE
I tried the functions that can be used with the multifunctional surveillance camera ``eufyCam 2C'' such as ``motion detection'', ``privacy zone'', ``voice call'', and ``warning alarm'' - GIGAZINE
◆ Accuracy check of motion detection
The eufyCam 2C detects and records moving objects within the shooting range, but it is equipped with a function to check this motion detection accuracy. Tap 'Motion detection' from the setting screen.
Tap 'Behavior detection test'.
Then the camera switches from normal shooting mode to motion detection test mode.
If the camera detects a moving object in this state, the red lamp lights up. By walking or stopping in front of the camera, it is a function that allows you to check how much motion is detected or not detected.
By switching the detection sensitivity during the motion detection test, you can determine how much detection sensitivity should be used. If it seems to be detected by too trivial movement, lower the detection sensitivity, and if it seems that even the movement of the level you want to shoot is not detected, conversely increase the detection sensitivity OK.
This is the video that I tried moving in front of the camera while actually performing the motion detection test. You can see the red lamp in front of the camera turn on every time you walk and move the camera position.
When I tested it, the default detection sensitivity '4' detected a step sideways, but when the detection sensitivity was set to '1', even if it moved slowly sideways, it was not detected more often. On the other hand, when the detection sensitivity is set to '7', even small movements such as closing the open leg can be detected.
◆ Image quality and file size of the captured video
Videos shot with eufyCam 2C are saved in ' HomeBase 2 ', a device for storing recorded video.
Videos recorded on HomeBase 2 can be checked through the app.
You can also save the video to your smartphone by tapping the 'Download' icon at the bottom.
This is the video actually taken with eufyCam 2C. There is not much sound in the first half, but you can hear the children screaming at the end of the video, so be careful not to raise the volume too much.
This time, I set up a camera on the railing on the second floor and shot it from an angle looking down on the road. The image quality of the video is full HD, and the angle of view is 135 degrees, so even if you shoot a fairly wide range, you can see the details.
The frame rate is 15fps, which is far from smooth, but still good enough to check the movement of a suspicious person.
In this video, I tried to appear while talking on my smartphone, but the microphone didn't pick up conversations at normal volume. However, I was able to pick up loud sounds above a certain level, such as children's shouts and the sound of stepping on the gutter lid. The length of the video downloaded this time was 19 seconds, the extension was
◆ Battery consumption
In this review, we installed it for about two full days, near convenience stores and apartments, and on a road with a lot of people during the day. As a result, the remaining battery level, which was 100% at the time of installation, decreased to 48%.
The official website of eufyCam 2C says `` 180 days of battery life '', but this is `` when recording 10 videos of about 30 seconds per day ''. Looking at the details of the detection results, the total number of detected events was 2916, 958 events were excluded as false positives, and 1958 events were recorded and saved. If you install it on a road with a lot of people like this time, it seems that the battery consumption will be faster than expected because the number of recordings will greatly exceed the expected number.
If you want to save battery consumption, it is recommended to install it in a place where few events are recorded, such as on the premises, or use the battery saving mode.
It is also effective to reduce unnecessary recording events by limiting the motion detection zone to only the necessary areas.
The built-in storage of HomeBase 2 is 14.7 GB, and 2.9 GB was used when it was used for 2 days.
