 Vivint's Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3 with an enhanced LED light

Vivint has elevated the game in home security again with the recent release of the Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3. The current generation of this market-leading camera delivers some impressive upgrades to better protect your house, loved ones, and even cars in your driveway. Explore what this camera is able to do and how you will benefit.  

What makes the Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3 an improvement on Gen 2?

You’ll notice several exciting new advancements in Vivint’s Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3. It’s absolutely worth the switch. Here’s why:

RADAR-driven detection for advanced protection

Vivint’s latest generation of the Outdoor Camera Pro more accurately pinpoints threats thanks to RADAR-powered detection. RADAR gives the Gen 3 model the ability to determine distance and movement. If a lurker is getting too close to your car, the Smart Deter features are triggered. While Gen 2 already used AI-based smart detection to identify lurkers and distinguish between strangers, animals, and cars, Gen 3 enhnaces your protection even more. 

Smart Deter gets a noticeable upgrade

People lurking around your Minneapolis property will immediately discover a difference with the Gen 3 Smart Deter functionality. The LED light around the camera’s lens is 2x larger, making it hard for prowlers to miss. Additionally, you’ll get clearer audio and enhanced light tracking when using the Spotlight Pro.

There’s plenty more to love with Gen 3, as Vivint has revamped the 4K sensor to sharpen detail in various levels of illumination. You’ll notice the superior night vision and zoom capabilities. Digital zoom increases to 5.3x, compared to Gen 2’s 3x. 

Overall, Gen 3’s features bolster detection and protection and help cut down on false alarms. The different generations also have a few similarities, including the contemporary, weather-resistant housing. Additionally, Gen 3 works seamlessly with the Vivint Smart Hub and app, just like its predecessor. As always, installation is done by skilled Vivint technicians. 

Combine your Gen 3 Vivint camera with the Spotlight Pro 

Order the camera on its own, or enhance it further with the Spotlight Pro. This powerful accessory casts light on lurkers around your house and actually tracks them with a spotlight. If they get too close, your pick of vivid lighting patterns kicks in. Entirely controllable with your mobile app, the Spotlight Pro can brighten up driveways, walkways, and other sections of your property. Developed for security, the Spotlight Pro provides a functional light source for your home.
