Netatmo Welcome is a new smart home camera that is capable of recognizing different members of your family.
This new home camera is designed with security in mind, and it is capable of working out which member of your family has walked into your house. It can also tell if someone unknown has entered your home. Have a look at the video below.
Welcome’s face recognition technology is a breakthrough in the smart home camera market. Welcome refers to people by their name and notifies the user when a stranger’s face appears. The camera learns to identify each family member.
Welcome allows users to know instantly who is home. When children get home from school, parents are informed with smart notifications: «Lily is home». The camera also reassures people that care for an elderly parent.
Advanced Security Features
The Netatmo Welcome camera is not just about recognizing faces; it also offers a range of advanced security features. For instance, it has night vision capabilities, ensuring that your home is monitored 24/7, even in low-light conditions. The camera also has a wide field of view, allowing it to cover more area and reduce blind spots. Additionally, it can send real-time alerts to your smartphone, so you are always aware of what is happening at home, no matter where you are.
Another noteworthy feature is its ability to store video footage locally on an SD card, which means you don’t have to rely on cloud storage and can avoid potential subscription fees. However, for those who prefer cloud storage, Netatmo offers that option as well, ensuring that your data is securely backed up.
Practical Applications
The practical applications of the Netatmo Welcome camera extend beyond just home security. For families with young children, the camera can serve as a nanny cam, allowing parents to keep an eye on their kids and ensure they are safe. For those who have elderly parents living with them, the camera provides peace of mind by notifying them when their loved ones are home and safe.
Moreover, the camera can be integrated with other smart home devices. For example, it can work in conjunction with smart locks to automatically unlock the door when a recognized family member approaches. It can also be linked to smart lighting systems to turn on lights when someone enters a room, enhancing both security and convenience.
The Netatmo Welcome is being shown off at CES this week, and it will launch in the second quarter of 2015. As yet, there are no details on pricing, but given its advanced features, it is expected to be competitively priced within the smart home market.
