New Duovox Mate Pro night vision camera can see in the dark thanks to the Sony STARVIS 2 sensor

The new Duovox Mate Pro night vision camera project has been launched on Kickstarter (Click here).
What’s special with this new camera is that it uses a Sony STARVIS 2 CMOS sensor that works in light as low as 0.0001 lux. And contrary to other night vision cameras this shows True Colors:

Press Text:

April 12, 2022: The team at Duovox is proud to announce the launch of their Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for Duovox Mate Pro — the world’s most advanced true color night vision camera.
Thanks to its innovative technology, Duovox captures the darkest night scenes as though it were daytime. Whether you’re hiking, driving, camping, traveling, or just out for dinner during a beautiful night — unlock 1,000ft of night in full color without a flash!
“We have used the latest low-light imaging technology and combined it with our own advanced AI algorithms,” said David Chen, the Duovox founder, “This allows Duovox to turn an entire night-time scene into a full color daylit photograph.”
Due to its innovative features, pocket-size design, and easy usability, Duovox Mate Pro is a great choice for adventurous travelers, parents, content creators, or just gadget lovers.

  • Night photography: Take full advantage of Sony STARVIS 2 CMOS sensor and capture wildlife, city views and breathtaking moments at night as if it were day.
  • Content Creation: With a built in Wifi hotspot, you can stream live footage through your smartphone, record up to 512 gb of material, opening up a new world of content creation.
  • Security Camera: Be aware of your surroundings at night with AI facial recognition that automatically detects and records any suspicious activity with up to 1,000 ft (300 m) of clear focus.
  • Dash and Personal Security Cam: Duovox Mate Pro’s lagless 2K display will guide you through dark alleys, gloomy roads, long tunnels, rainy days, or snowy nights.
  • Night adventures: Forests to oceans and camping to boating, Duovox Mate Pro expands your horizons by enabling you to monitor 300 meters ahead in true color, ensures safe journeys and allows to capture the breathtaking moments of your adventures.
  • Wildlife monitoring: Observe wildlife completely unnoticed with a dimmable screen and no infrared light emitted to stay undetectable.

“We believe that technology should be limitless. Duovox Mate Pro has come to replace traditional black and white infrared night vision devices that produce poor quality images with no color, making it hard for mass adoption.” says the founder of Duovox David Chen.

Technical specifications

  •  Sony STARVIS 2 CMOS sensor: allows the camera to capture quality images in light as low as 0.0001lux.
  • Exclusive algorithm optimization: helps to balance brightness in an image, improving clarity.
  • 7 lens optical system: captures the same image through different resolutions and combines them into a high-resolution photo.
  • IR filter: Filters out unwanted infrared light to prevent it from destroying image colors.
  • Advanced noise reduction: instantly processes the image to reduce noise at levels never
    seen before for the clearest picture.
  • Pocket-size design: Only 2x4in (54x106mm) and 400g, Duovox is compact and is
    covered in a tough shell, ready for any adventure.
  • 22 Stops of Dynamic range: 148% more dynamic range than the leading professional low-light camera, Sony a7s III. It captures 2x more information about any scene than an iPhone 13 Pro Max, pulling detail out of the highlights and shadows.
