UniFi Hidden Camera - AI Theta Unboxing

Lets have a look at the UniFi AI Theta Camera and Speaker. It's a very different way for security cameras that I'm excited about!

No footage of the camera?

Looking forward to your install video on this. i was also looking into these for my internal home use.
And was thinking along the lines of running a really long USBC cable to that point with a second one as my celeings are currently down. then have that main unit in the rack with a POE cable in.
But just the thought of running USBC at about 15-20m doesnt sit well with me, so im going the route of the G5/G3 glex with the in celing mounts..

Yeah I'm a bit delayed as I'm out of the country for a bit, but yeah excited to try these out, as the AI 360 cameras when checking on our cats are "OK" but could be better.
Yeah, I'll have to try the USB-C method first it will make more sense in the video why, otherwise will have to make a hole for the brick, which seems to defeat the purpose.

@@JenxTech just got my new g4 doorbell pro poe (uploaded to shorts) plus the AI theta.

I bought one of these and have no idea where I'm supposed to install that clunky box. Dangle it in the wall? Cut a huge hole int he wall to install that mounting bracket inside the wall and then patch a huge hole? Then what if I need to reboot it? I also thought I would get a long cable. Not only do I not have it, but it isn't available for purchase.

[@JenxTech]

@@woodandgears2865 yeah massive hole in the wall. I will eventually do a follow up but I don't like these

[@spacemanwho]

and i agree, they should have seperated the two lens saving a few bucks would have been nice!

[@JenxTech]

Yeah, little drop down to pick the lense on the site would be nice, but also a SKU and logistics nightmare, probably cheaper from logistics to just ship both

I still cant wrap my head around the logic of installing cameras inside ones home. Cameras connected to the internet have no business being inside ones private home. companies can say its secure till they are blue in the face but ALWAYS have back doors that the consumer doesn't know about. Outside, inside the garage I'm fine with but inside absolutely not. this young generation of wanting everything on video is crazy... I guess if your law enforcement its great cause you don't have to work to prove guilty they already did by recording it.

would this the inifi AI Theta Microphone work with an alexa or airpod's?

[@JenxTech]

I very much doubt it, UniFi integration is non-existent with Apple/Google/Amazon. How ever thats a great idea to see if I can get the home assistant voice assistant to react to it as it can stream the audio from the camera! Thanks for the idea!
