How Smart Hybrid Light works
1. Normal night operation (no activity)
- Camera uses IR light
- Image stays black & white
- Stealthy, no visible light
2. Event detected (human or vehicle)
- Camera instantly switches on white light
- Image switches to full color
- You capture accurate details: clothing color, car color, faces, objects
3. After the event
- White light turns off automatically
- Camera returns to IR mode
Why this guarantees color images during events
-
The camera doesn’t guess, it reacts to motion analytics (like IntelliSense / AcuSense)
-
White light is only triggered when a real target is detected
-
That ensures:
- ✔ Color evidence at the critical moment
- ✔ No constant light pollution
- ✔ Lower false alarms
Key benefits
-
Color evidence when it counts (faces, vehicles, clothing)
-
Acts as a deterrent — light turning on can scare intruders
-
Energy efficient — light is only on briefly
-
Smarter alerts — paired with human/vehicle detection

The camera switches from IR to white light, records full-color video, sends you an alert, then goes back to IR once they
