Sounds like a much more complicated problem… maybe resistive heater would be enough? I’m assuming there isn’t any problem with the cold other than the whole thing icing over.
Better optics/camera is probably where it all falls apart… you’re not getting it out of a pre-made $8 dev board any time soon.
It’s the battery. A lot of doorbell cameras have an internal battery to keep the camera powered when the chime is rung. A few of my friends have to replace their unifi doorbell cameras once a year after winter

You’d think that’d be a perfect job for a supercap.
Wow that’s wasteful, I’d expect a bit more from ubiquiti kit
