The emergence of the second generation of small ant smart cameras, compared to the first generation, brought us full HD 1080P cameras, plus support for cloud storage, and the functionality of mobile phone app operations has also increased a lot. Here's a simple way to share this new product!

The packaging design is concise and clear. In the upper right corner there is a small ant LOGO of “YI”. There is no picture of the product. However, it is believed that the readers who know the first generation of products may not be too suspense, after all, the appearance of the two changes. Not great.

The packaging of the box of heaven and earth, after opening, first saw the round, black camera on the top, and its "body" is placed under the compartment.

While removing the small ant smart camera 2, it also includes a power adapter and a micro-USB power cable. Its power supply is similar to that of ordinary speakers and mobile phones. The advantage of this is that I can also choose to use a multi-port USB charger to supply power, not necessarily plugged into a power outlet.

I don't know if it's related to the version of the product I got. The instructions I got from the accessories are in English. Although I can read it with my poor English, I can only read it through the QR code. The version of the APP download page, and then have to search for "small ant camera" in the APP store to download the Chinese version of the APP.

The shape of the entire camera is still quite cute. On the oval-shaped panel, the black camera is placed on the top, and there is a large variety of yellow people's feel. However, this big eye is not that simple, it uses a Panasonic 1/2.8 inch professional-grade CMOS sensor, with Ambarella's security level master chip. There are also 11 night vision beads that surround the camera to help ensure a certain quality at night when the light conditions are poor.

The panel and base are connected by a hinge, allowing the camera to have a 180° rotation range from front to back. Although can not be adjusted, but based on the camera's wide-angle degree is already very adequate, the role of the left and right rotation adjustment on the hardware is optional, and when the adjustment is up and down, the stability of the camera is also very good, moderate damping sense, can let the camera Keep the angle you want at any time, and the base will not easily fall.

Speaker opening.

Behind the panel can be opened, the way to open is very simple, is to open a little along the gap in the lower right, but if you change to push, I would prefer. The role here is not to replace the battery like a cell phone. There is a Micro-SD card slot, and then there is a RESET button. The effect is not described. However, it should be noted that this camera supports up to 32GB of headroom, is a bit small for 24-hour monitoring, or needs to work with cloud storage.

In fact, from the appearance, the small ant smart camera is small and convenient, suitable for many places, to see the daily activities of little babies, pets, or let go in the shop for monitoring is also very good, if you can expand More peripherals, so that it can be installed in some places on the wall, instead of monitoring the role of the probe, I think it is also good.

The device's corresponding mobile phone app is a "small ant camera." In addition to its ability to view the camera screen, it also provides value-added services such as infant cry monitoring and traffic statistics.

The friendliness of all aspects of equipment operation made me feel good. There are voice prompts for important steps such as booting and connection. It is much more convenient than allowing the user to directly judge through the indicator light. The connection with the mobile phone is directly generated by the QR code generated by the mobile phone and placed on the camera for scanning. Completed, and then help the camera on the APP to set up an account password to connect to the WiFi network, is basically completed.

In addition, the APP can connect multiple camera devices. The interface on the APP is clear and the logic level is more in line with the general usage habits. It is easy to get started. In the monitoring screen can be directly recorded, captured, and then there is a phone, very convenient, click on the screen for horizontal screen playback, even larger than the perspective of the thumbnail interface, you can view more wide-angle screen information. In addition, through the middle of the microphone button, like WeChat voice, recording and then played out on the camera speakers, two-way voice, and communicate with family in time, that is, without the knowledge of the elderly will not be scared. In other respects, as mentioned in the statistics of the flow of people, additional purchases are required.

As an Internet product, the small ant's camcorder to a certain extent still subverts the traditional monitoring equipment. In the past, we installed monitoring equipment for our homes, especially at the gates. All of us need professionals to help with installation and winding. As well as the output device, each link is very troublesome. Nowadays, with this compact device, with a mobile phone, high-definition picture transmission and recording can be realized, and the picture is clearer and more angled than traditional devices. The recorded content is naturally more comprehensive, and two-way voice, traffic statistics and other functions can allow users to develop more new games and add a touch of life. As for the stability of its operation and network, I think it is still worthwhile to worry about. So far everything has run smoothly, and there have been no cases of crashes or transmission anomalies.


Finally, talk about the privacy of cloud storage. The interaction between the small ant camera and the cloud uses https to conduct two-way interactive authentication. The information such as video and photos is encrypted through the transmission protocol to ensure the privacy of the data. For most users, Words are still guaranteed.

Surface Mounted Components

SMD: It is an abbreviation of Surface Mounted Devices. It is one of Surface Mount Technology (SMT) components. In the initial stage of circuit board production, through - hole assembly is completely manual. When the first automated machines were introduced, they could place some simple pin elements, but complex elements still needed to be placed manually for reflow soldering. Surface Mounted components mainly include rectangular chip components, cylindrical chip components, composite chip components and special-shaped chip components
