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

Vivint has set a new standard in home security again with the new release of the Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3. The new generation of this market-leading device delivers some impressive upgrades to better defend your home, loved ones, and even cars in your driveway. Explore what this camera is capable of and how you can take advantage of it.  

What makes the Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3 different from Gen 2?

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

RADAR-powered detection for advanced security

Vivint’s latest generation of the Outdoor Camera Pro more accurately pinpoints threats due to RADAR-powered detection. RADAR enables the camera to monitor movement and distance. If someone is coming near your car, the Smart Deter features are activated. While Gen 2 already used AI-powered smart detection to identify prowlers and distinguish between individuals, pets, and vehicles, Gen 3 takes your protection to another level. 

Smart Deter gets a makeover

People lurking around your Champaign home will immediately notice a difference with the new camera’s Smart Deter functionality. The red warning light around the camera’s lens is double the size, making it much harder for trespassers to miss. Additionally, you’ll enjoy better sound quality and enhanced light tracking when implementing the Spotlight Pro.

There’s even more to love with Gen 3, as Vivint has enhanced the 4K sensor to improve clarity in different levels of illumination. You’ll appreciate the superior night vision and zoom capabilities. Digital zoom increases to 5.3x, a nice jump from Gen 2’s 3x. 

Overall, the changes bolster detection and protection and help cut down on false alarms. The different generations also have a few similarities, including the sleek, weather-resistant design. Additionally, Gen 3 works seamlessly with the Vivint app and Smart Hub, just like the Gen 2 model. As always, installation is done by well-trained Vivint technicians. 

Pair your Gen 3 Vivint camera with the Spotlight Pro 

Order the camera separately, or take it a step further with the Spotlight Pro. This powerful add-on illuminates lurkers around your house and actually tracks them with a spotlight. A vivid light pattern activates if they come too close. Entirely customizable via your mobile app, the Spotlight Pro can light up driveways, walkways, and other sections of your property. Designed for security, the Spotlight Pro provides a functional light source for your home.
