How to configure a scene-specific image in Ajax apps

Updated

Scene-specific image settings allow you to configure image parameters separately for different lighting conditions. You can set individual parameters for day and night, with IR illumination or white light at nighttime (for supported cameras).

Image settings available for a specific scene

To configure image settings for specific lighting conditions, tap the corresponding Capturing mode menu:

  • Day
  • Night (IR light)
  • Night (white light) — available for cameras with hybrid illumination only
