Technical Overview
At the core of the TAPO C113 is a 1/3" CMOS image sensor that captures 3-megapixel video at 2304 x 1296 resolution with a 30 fps frame rate. The fixed 3.2 mm lens with f/1.6 maximum aperture provides a wide 114° diagonal field of view, covering substantial area with minimal distortion.
The camera employs H.264 video compression for efficient storage and streaming, supporting memory card storage for local recording. Wireless connectivity via Wi-Fi enables flexible placement without cable constraints, while protocols including RTSP, ONVIF, TCP/IP, DHCP, and SSL/TLS ensure compatibility with various network video recorders and management systems.
This section brings together practical product details such as HD Recording, Recording Formats, Night Vision, Image Sensor Type, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

Deployment / Use Cases
The TAPO C113's flexible mounting options and weatherproof construction support diverse installation scenarios. For residential security, it can monitor entryways, driveways, or backyard areas, providing clear footage of visitors, packages, or suspicious activity.
In commercial settings, the camera suits small business premises, retail storefronts, or office building exteriors where wireless installation simplifies deployment. The wide 114° field of view reduces the number of cameras needed to cover larger areas, while AI detection helps filter relevant security events from routine movement.
Home Security Monitoring
Monitor property perimeters, entry points, and outdoor living spaces with clear 2K video and intelligent alerting for unauthorized access or unusual activity.
Small Business Surveillance
Deploy at storefronts, parking areas, or loading docks to document activity, deter theft, and maintain security records without complex wiring installations.
Physical Profile
The compact camera housing supports table, ceiling, and wall mounting with included bracket and template for precise installation. Its small footprint allows discreet placement while the durable construction withstands environmental exposure. The integrated microphone and speaker enable two-way audio communication, adding functionality beyond basic video monitoring.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 3.63" (92.10 mm), 2.41" (61.10 mm), 2.38" (60.50 mm), 3.17 oz (90 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
