Duovox has unveiled the Mate Pro camera and it comes loaded with some impressive features. The new camera which is being crowdfunded via Kickstarter is capable of making full-color photos and videos even in total darkness.
The new Douvox Mate Pro camera is a compact camera that is built to replace traditional infra-red night vision devices that output in black and white colors. It is meant for nighttime adventurers, content creators, and any person willing to catch night beauty unfettered. It is capable of taking high-quality shots and videos of very low-light situations. An official specs sheet is lacking at this time but a pre-production sample was presented to PetaPixel.
The Mate Pro night vision camera has dimensions of 11.4cm x 7.6cm x 5.4cm for its width, depth, and height respectively. It has a fixed length, non-removable lens, and the camera is easily tucked away when not in use. A lens cap is however not present in the camera, calling for extra caution in its handling. The camera weighs about 216g and it is front-heavy due to the lens apparatus. A mini tripod is part of the package to provide a sturdy stand for the device. There are six buttons at the top of the Duovox Mate Pro including the power, shutter, and a few shortcut buttons.
The array of camera settings and menu for the Mate Pro can be assessed via its 3-inch touchscreen at the back of the camera. The right side of the camera has a USB-C port and microSD card slot that can accommodate up to a 512GB card. This offers several hours of video and tons of photos saved on the device. The Duovox Mate Pro camera has a 3,000mAh non-removable battery that offers several hours of video activity on a full charge. The settings of the Mate Pro camera contain loads of options and modes that make the device quite versatile.
The signature feature of the Duovox Mate Pro seems to be its night vision capabilities. Its SONY STARVIS 2 CMOS sensor helps to capture very low-light images and videos in full color. The seven-lens camera setup helps to deliver high-quality images and videos of different resolutions and combine them into a single photo. The infra-red filter helps to retain the color fidelity of the shots or videos.
While the original price of the Duovox Mate Pro night vision camera has been put at $1,200, the Kickstarter platform has seen the price reduced to $599 with the first deliveries expected in October 2022. It remains to be seen how the current specs will match the reality when the Mate Pro is released to the market in October. We expect Duovox to keep to the timeline barring any setbacks.
