With the development of smart homes, smart cat eyes have become an indispensable smart security product for every family. Today, Xiao Ming evaluated the popular spotted cat Internet of Things smart cat eyes on the market. You can experience this product through unpacking, installation, and use. The following is a detailed experience of use.

From the perspective of the outer packaging, the design of the spotted cat is very simple. The entire box adopts a light yellow design. Only the cat head logo of the spotted cat is displayed in the center. The spotted cat is an independent IoT brand under the listed company Wanxing Technology. A leading consumer software company, Dalmatian is also an excellent domestic smart hardware and IoT home security solution provider, so Dalmatian-related products have always been optimistic.

After opening the package, there is still a layer of black pearl cotton attached to the lid of the box. Although the hardness of the box will not cause the product to be squeezed, the product is safer with the protection of the pearl cotton. The product contains a 300W camera (cat's eye), 7 inches High-resolution screen, charging cable, charging head, manual, screws, steel bracket, warranty card, installation prompt card.

The cat’s eye is a circular design, surrounded by metal material, which looks very textured. The camera adopts the same lens of Huawei P9, with 3 million pixels, which can be clearly seen when taking pictures from 20 meters away. The camera is surrounded by four security-grade infrared rays. The sensor is the top configuration in the industry, which makes it possible to clearly see the situation outside the door without turning on the lights at night. At the top of the camera is a human motion detection sensor, which is used to monitor the movement of the human body at the door. It can be set to record during motion detection, and it can also be set to alarm by customizing the length of stay. If criminals are prevented from violently removing the cat’s eye, only You need to turn on the disassembly alarm function. There is a light sensor on the right side of the camera, which can automatically test the brightness of the environment to display and fill light. The left side of the camera is designed with a microphone. In other words, under the camera is a doorbell with a protruding design. The doorbell is always on in standby mode, which serves as a good reminder.

The indoor display looks more like a flat panel. The spotted cat uses a 7-inch IPS high-definition display with a resolution of 1280*720P. According to Xiaoming’s evaluation, the IPS screen is currently the world’s most advanced LCD technology. Compared with the traditional LCD, the hard-screen LCD with IPS screen technology has a faster response speed and smoother motion pictures. The wide-angle of the screen reaches 178 degrees, making the screen clearly visible in any direction. There is a charging port and a TF card port on the side of the display, which can expand the capacity to 32G, and the built-in storage of the body is 8G.

When installing, the spotted cat also provides three sets of screws with different lengths according to the doors of different thicknesses. I used 55mm long screws. The installation is also very simple. First screw the appropriate screws to the outer peephole of the door, and then tear the back of the peephole. 3M protective paper, choose a good position and stick it on the door.

Then put the flat cable plug through the steel bracket in the door, tighten the screw on the cat head, and finally insert the flat cable plug into the rear interface of the indoor host screen, arrange the flat cable, remind everyone not to twist the flat cable, and then turn the host Hang to the upper part of the steel sheet, the lower part will be automatically adsorbed, and the bottom screw can be tightened.

The operation is relatively simple.

It is worth mentioning that the Dalmatians APP is also independently developed and designed by Wanxing Technology, and Wanxing is the leader in the APP software industry, so the experience of its own APP is naturally at the international first-class level.

Different from other products, you can also set the scene under the spotted cat app. According to different situations, you can customize different reactions. For example, you can have a person to ring the bell to take pictures, and it can also be linked with the spotted cat smart door lock for remote control. Video confirmation unlocking is also the first in the industry to implement this function. If you want to set the cat’s eye, you can do it through the APP instead of the indoor unit.
