Arlo Unveils 4K HDR Wire-Free Security Camera System
Arlo Technologies, Inc. unveiled today its new flagship wire-free security camera system, Arlo Ultra.
Designed to provide protection for people and places, Arlo Ultra features 4K Ultra HD resolution with high dynamic range (HDR), color night vision and advanced image processing, all in a compact design built for outdoor and indoor use. Arlo Ultra also includes a one-year subscription to Arlo Smart Premier, giving users a more personalized, intelligent smart home security experience, powered by Arlo's AI and computer vision technologies.
The new Arlo Ultra 4K HDR wire-free security camera system is slated to roll out to the market in the first quarter of 2019, with pricing starting at $399.99 for the 1-camera system which includes a one-year subscription to Arlo Smart Premier.
Featuring a new 4K image sensor with HDR image processing, Arlo Ultra is capable of capturing and outputting 4K video quality from the lens to the user. This feature provides additional detail and clarity to videos but allows users to zoom in on their video clips to uncover critical information, such as license plates, clothing, or other telling details in suspicious activity. The camera has a panoramic 180-degree diagonal field of view and includes an integrated spotlight that can illuminate the night with a LED light, giving users the ability to see color in the dark rather than traditional black and white night vision.
Designed with dual-microphones, Arlo Ultra delivers two-way audio with noise cancellation that can minimize background noise and accentuate foreground audio, such as voices.
Arlo Ultra also includes a new rechargeable battery and comes with a weather-resistant, magnetic charging cable for indoor and outdoor use. In addition, a built-in siren can be automatically triggered by motion, audio detection, or manually activated remotely from the Arlo App for added protection.
A new Arlo SmartHub connects to the user's router to provide extended Wi-Fi range to Arlo cameras, manages data traffic to and from the camera out to the user's cloud account and offers a more secure dedicated IOT network for the devices connected to the Arlo SmartHub. The Arlo SmartHub features a microSD Card for local storage of recorded clips from Arlo cameras.
