What is LumiNightKing?

LumiNightKing cameras provide flexible and reliable full-color video in near-dark conditions. These cameras support two modes: covert monitoring with no LEDs or dusk-to-dawn white-light LEDs for deterrent monitoring.

Dependent on the application requirement, this dual-purpose capability makes the series ideal for security applications that want a discrete camera to preserve the ambiance of a scene or for scenes that need a visible presence from continuous white-light LEDs throughout the night. Regardless of the situation, some ambient lighting is recommended for optimal performance.

How Does LumiNightKing Work?
LumiNightKing cameras differs from traditional security cameras thanks to its flexible low-light sensitivity. These cameras seamlessly combine a large pixel size sensor, powerful AI-ISP, and F1.0 large aperture so that full color images can be captured in near total darkness without using IR or white-light LEDs. Alternatively, LumiNightKing cameras also feature white-light LEDs which can be turned ON and stay ON for proactive deterrence throughout the night.

AI-ISP Benefits
The LumiNightKing’s AI-ISP (Artificial Intelligence Image Signal Processing) chip integrates AI and ISP into a single unit for improved energy efficiency. It intelligently adjusts processing based on the scene, maximizing performance while minimizing power consumption. By embedding advanced image processing and AI algorithms directly into the imaging pipeline, AI-ISP delivers smarter, faster, and more effective security.

Why Covert Monitoring?

LumiNightKing cameras are optimized for environments with some ambient lighting, delivering discreet, covert surveillance without relying on infrared or white-light illumination.

Stealth Security Solutions for Military, High-Security & Eco-Sensitive Sites
Some nighttime applications such as military, high-security sites, conservation, farms, and nature reserves prefer covert security to avoid detection, maintain natural appearance, and ensure discreet surveillance in sensitive areas.
Covert Monitoring Keeps WILDIFE Safe.
Artificial lighting from streetlights and security cameras can disorient wildlife such as sea turtles and hatchlings, leading to tragic consequences. These ancient mariners need darkness for successful nesting and the safety of their offspring. LumiNightKing offers a covert option without visible lights or IR glow so events can be monitored without disruption to the ecosystem.
Covert Monitoring for Theaters, Clubs & Dark Rides
Nighttime entertainment such as theaters, dark rides, themed environments, movie theaters and night clubs prefer covert security cameras to maintain an immersive, distraction-free experience while ensuring safety and security. LumiNightKing offers a covert option to allow for discreet monitoring without drawing attention to the camera and preserving the atmosphere for guests.
Why Deterrent Monitoring?

LumiNightKing cameras feature white-light LEDs which can be turned ON and stay ON for proactive deterrence throughout the night.

LumiNightKing cameras feature dusk-to-dawn white-light LEDs for proactive deterrence to discourage intruders and enhance image clarity for identification. They are ideal for high-risk areas such as car dealerships, construction sites, and critical infrastructure where visible, deterrence is essential.
