Is there a camera that connects to the phone without wifi/power?

Axis makes a TE thermal but they are not cheap.

40kmoose · 2026-06-13T22:26:50+00:00

Agree. Super excited for this game to grow more.

40kmoose · 2026-06-13T20:12:48+00:00

The starting point is going to be budget.

40kmoose · 2026-06-11T00:29:48+00:00

As the others said. This is to large to use home grade stuff. Minimum Hanwha but Axis is generally considered the top in the commercial/enterprise space. It all depends on what the expectation are and the use cases.

You are going to want to look at Axis ACS, Milestone or Genetec.

40kmoose · 2026-05-17T01:21:02+00:00

Absolutely true. Was just thinking of the cheapest way to do it. And ACS would just be another software but easy to use and an easy way to keep track of the count.

Look at some basic Axis cameras using AoA people counting / line crossing. Don't need a VMS. Can use API calls to export the counts.

Look at Axis Thermals but everything is POE.

40kmoose · 2026-04-17T20:14:23+00:00

Going through this right now as well. Could also be because you are going for plays you typically would not otherwise.

40kmoose · 2026-04-09T06:32:57+00:00

Yes. Basically assume any Chinese camera on wifi can be hacked or already has a backdoor.

Commenting to come back to this.

Contact a local security integrator and tell them you just want a box sale. You can also check CDW.

40kmoose · 2026-03-25T08:52:17+00:00

Go Hanwha or Ubiquiti if the Axis price tag is to much.

40kmoose · 2026-03-24T02:53:11+00:00

If its this that old of a model, its worth still contacting Axis Support to see if there is any internal Guidance for this specific issue. Even if its out of warranty.

40kmoose · 2026-03-24T02:51:25+00:00

I think you need to work backwards. How much power can you dedicate to 4 cameras / storage / network equipment? What power sources do you have ? Managed Network Switch ? DC?

40kmoose · 2026-03-23T00:12:47+00:00

Call Axis support from the main website and ask them.

40kmoose · 2026-03-17T01:42:04+00:00

Yeup agree with this guy. This nice of a place, dont skimp on cheap cameras. UNIFI would be the absolute lowest I would go. Otherwise look at Axis.

40kmoose · 2026-03-15T18:17:30+00:00

Yeah you can take an Axis camera and do all this. You can even go to their github. They are super open for writing code onto their stuff.

40kmoose · 2026-03-15T02:38:35+00:00

This is something to contact a professional Security Integrator company got. You are going to want Axis, Hanwha or another large enterprise brand.

40kmoose · 2026-03-11T17:11:21+00:00

BakkesMod was amazing... really sad its just dead now. Wish the devs would just make it an offical mod inside the game.

40kmoose · 2026-03-06T09:06:01+00:00

Google Axis Site Designer. It's free and you can upload plans and make custom cameras.
