We've been quiet for a couple weeks on the new feature front, so we figured we'd make it up to everyone by adding some new camera models today 😉
The MV22X and MV72X have joined MV smart camera family, and are available now in most regions. They feature a half terabyte of storage (512GB), which is 2x the capacity of the MV22 and MV72. There are two options for taking advantage of this extra storage: higher resolution recording, or longer retention. These cameras support 4MP resolution (nearly 2x the resolution of 1080P). Or, at lower resolution settings, they can store up to 90 days of continuous 24/7 video.
We're also adding support for dewarped views from MV32 cameras on video walls. You can add multiple views from one or more cameras. More info on how this works can be found on our documentation.
Finally, we pre-announced Bluetooth support on all second generation cameras. More details will be forthcoming as we get closer to the release. Our end goal is to have feature parity with MR, but we will be starting with Bluetooth scanning support via API. I'm excited about the potential here, as this will greatly expand coverage and capabilities for existing MR customers that have (or add) cameras.
To learn more about the new announcements, you can head on over to our website, or our blog. What do you think? Especially curious to hear from any of you that use Bluetooth functionality on MR - how are you using it, and do you see that changing at all when the functionality comes to MV, as well?
