Wyze’s new security camera watches your yard from inside your home

Wyze’s new security camera watches your yard from inside your home

Wyze has announced an unorthodox approach to outdoor security cameras with its new Window Cam that monitors your yard and property from inside your home. This Rear Window approach to security means the camera doesn’t need batteries, Wi-Fi range extenders, access to an exterior power outlet, or weatherproofing. The company already offers window mounts for its indoor security cameras, but the Wyze Window Cam is purpose-built for the task with infrared and LED lighting completely removed to reduce glare and reflections. It’s available now from Wyze’s online store for $34.98. The Window Cam features a 1080P HD sensor paired with a lens offering a 101-degree horizontal field of view that’s limited to 53.9 degrees vertically. It also features “enhanced color night vision,” according to Wyze, that takes advantage of a wide f/1.0 aperture to capture color footage with minimal ambient light. The included mount uses a large black bezel to minimize glare from indoor lighting. While the camera is attached using generic hook-and-loop fastener, the mount itself adheres to a window using an adhesive sticker. …
