Of all the AI features that put the "smarts" in smart security cameras, facial detection is undoubtedly the most complex and frustrating. Thanks to the variable quality of the algorithms behind them, three different cameras with facial detection can give you maddeningly different results. My expectations, then, for Wisenet's SmartCam N2 with facial recognition were modest. But after using it for week or so, I'm ready to say the N2 is one of the better facial-recognition cameras out there. The N2's capsule-style body comes mounted to a metal base you can set on a table or shelf.
