In this post, I test out an interesting new product from Akaso. If you have watched my videos over the years, you may know I’ve utilized Akaso action cameras, both the older V50 Elite and the newer Brave 8 model. They have been handy in capturing underwater video footage when boating.
Recently, I accepted Akaos’s offer of the Seemor-200 night vision goggles for review. The Seemor utilizes AI technology to produce a full-color image even in low light. It has several levels of zoom and can record in 4K video and take photos. I’m excited to test it out this snowbird season in the USA’s southwest desert. It will be interesting to spot nocturnal nightlife!
*Fair Disclosure* I received the Akaso Seemor-200 Product as a complimentary review sample. However, I received no monetary compensation and have full editorial control of the content.
Here are the main features of the Akaso Seemor-200 Night Vision Goggles:
- AI-ISP Technology: Provides full-color night vision with up to 99% color accuracy, even in ultra-low light conditions.
- 4K Ultra HD Resolution: Captures detailed and clear images and videos with 4K resolution.
- 16x Digital Zoom: maximum viewing range of up to 3280ft (1 km).
- Dual Observation Modes: Switches between full-color and infrared black-and-white modes for different lighting conditions.
- Built-in Microphone: Records ambient sounds and audio alongside video.
- IPX5 Waterproof: Suitable for use in various weather conditions.
- 6-Axis Gyroscope and Compass: Ensures stability and accuracy.
- Two Rechargeable Batteries: Provides up to 8 hours of continuous use.
- Portable Design: Lightweight and easy to carry, with customizable attachments for lanyards, tripods, or helmet straps.
- App-Enabled: Connects to the AKASO Aura app for real-time monitoring and easy transfer of photos and videos.
It sounds pretty impressive, but does it live up to the advertising? I’ll split my review into two videos to find out. First, we’ll see what the kit includes, its physical look and feel, settings/adjustments, the companion smartphone app, and a demo of it in action. Then, after some time using it in the field, I’ll return in a second video with more real-world footage from my desert camping trip and my review, likes/dislikes, and that sort of thing.

I recorded this video using the Seemor 200 Googles on December 4th, 2024, of the SpaceX rocket launch on the California coast from Trona Pinnacles. I think it was carrying more Starlink satellites to orbit. It looked pretty cool.
