VIDEO SURVEILLANCE
Smart cameras and video doorbells can keep an eye on all parts of your property while at home or away. With a video doorbell, you can be notified of activity within a watch area outside your home. Get notified when someone is at your door or a package is delivered, not when a random vehicle or person walks by. If you are home, 2-way communication through your video doorbell can help you screen a visitor.
Around the perimeter of your house, strategically placed cameras enable you to see a continuous feed if you desire or just record footage when the camera detects motion. Smart camera features can discern between animals and people for easier monitoring and fewer distractions.
At home, you can view your cameras on a personal smartphone or tablet, your TV, or a customized home control touch screen. When you're away, a monitoring app on your smartphone can show you all your camera feeds and tell you of any activity.
SMART SENSORS
Sometimes the potential incidents in your home might be within. An unnoticed small water leak while you’re away on a long summer break can turn into a costly loss. If you have a prized collection in a wine cellar, a loss of refrigeration could destroy significant investments. With smart environmental sensors, you can monitor your home from wherever you are. If a sensor detects humidity, water, or heat outside of the norms, you can be instantly notified so that you can address it quickly.
PROACTIVE PROTECTION
When security becomes an integral part of a smart home automation system, you increase the options to protect your home. A smart home system can make your house look occupied by simulating your activity with lighting, motorized window treatments, and even AV systems. Your home will be a harder target for those watching your neighborhood for signs that people are away. Should an intruder trespass, your system can also be more proactive. Besides instantly notifying you and the authorities, it can blare an alarm, flash the lights inside and outside your property, and create a scene that would make an intruder think twice about staying long.
A smart security installation does more than just alert you to trouble. It keeps you informed, puts you in control of the situation, and can orchestrate your smart home to react to minimize potential damage.
