The PGST indoor night camera delivers sharp, clear footage even in complete darkness, ensuring your home is monitored 24/7 without any manual adjustment.
PGST indoor night camera: always-on night vision
Equipped with infrared LEDs, the PGST indoor night camera automatically switches to night mode when ambient light drops. It captures detailed images in total darkness, making it ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, corridors, and living rooms at night. Day-to-night switching is fully automatic.
PGST indoor night camera: remote monitoring
Connect the camera to your home Wi-Fi and access the live feed from the PGST app on your smartphone, from anywhere in the world. Motion detection sends an instant push alert to your phone. When paired with a PGST alarm panel, camera alerts and alarm events are managed from a single interface.

FAQ — PGST indoor night camera
What is the night vision range of the PGST indoor night camera?
Night vision range depends on the model and the number of infrared LEDs. Refer to your model’s technical specifications for the maximum effective range.
Does the infrared light disturb sleep?
Infrared light is invisible to the naked eye. Some models show a faint red glow when IR LEDs are active, but it is subtle and generally does not disturb sleep.
Can the indoor night camera be used outside?
No. This camera is designed for indoor use only. For outdoor night monitoring, choose the PGST outdoor night camera, which is weather-resistant.
Does the camera record continuously or only on motion?
Depending on the model and app settings, the camera can record continuously or only on motion detection. Motion-triggered recording saves storage space and makes reviewing footage easier.

PGST Indoor Night Camera: Infrared Vision and Low-Light Detection
The PGST indoor night camera is equipped with infrared LEDs that illuminate the scene with invisible light, capturing clear images in complete darkness. The switch between colour day mode and black-and-white infrared night mode happens automatically via a built-in ambient light sensor — no manual adjustment required. This ensures 24/7 surveillance whether the lights are on or off, throughout the night and during power cuts.
Infrared light is invisible to the human eye, so the camera monitors discreetly without alerting occupants or intruders to its presence. Night vision range varies by model and room conditions — reflective surfaces such as white walls improve the effective range, while heavily furnished dark rooms reduce it. For best coverage, position the camera in an unobstructed corner with nothing blocking the lens within one metre.
Frequently Asked Questions — PGST Indoor Night Camera
Does night mode activate automatically?
Yes, the switch to night mode is fully automatic. A photoreceptor built into the camera continuously measures ambient light levels. When brightness drops below a set threshold, the infrared LEDs activate and the sensor switches to monochrome night mode. When natural or artificial light returns — at dawn or when a light is switched on — the camera reverts to colour mode. No scheduling or manual switching is needed at any time.
Does motion detection work in complete darkness?
Yes. Motion detection on the PGST night camera is based on analysis of the infrared video stream, independent of visible light. In total darkness, the IR LEDs illuminate the scene and the detection algorithm identifies pixel variations between successive frames. Any human-sized movement crossing the camera’s field of view triggers an immediate push notification to your phone — even at 3 am in a completely unlit room.
Night mode switches automatically via a built-in photoreceptor, and motion detection keeps working purely from the infrared stream — meaning a human-sized movement at 3am in a fully dark room still triggers a push notification just as reliably as in daylight.
