How can I improve the image produced by the DNNCam in low-light situations?

We suggest the following configurations to increase performance in low-light scenarios:
  1. Decrease zoom
  2. Increase/open the iris (100% is fully open)
  3. Use a low gain setting, like 1-10
  4. Use a high exposure setting (i.e. 1/960 min, 1/15 max)
  5. Turn off denoising
All of these configurations can be done using the Web UI
