Intelligent Home Security Systems

Benefitting the new-age working professionals by offering centralized control over the home security devices while away from home!

The smart home security industry is flourishing at a lightning speed with the advancement of technology and innovation taking place in different corners of the world, almost every day. There was a time when leaving home for work every morning meant a lot of inevitable chores that needed to be completed to ensure utmost security for the house and the loved ones in there. But today, due to the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its integration with home security devices, life has become easier. Smart home security systems with in-built AI make sure that you get all updates about anything unusual happening in or around your house. In other words, these offer complete surveillance and control over your house. Intelligent home security devices come with real-time video/camera monitoring and motion sensing attributes. If any unusual movement takes place in front of the camera, the motion sensor captures it and immediately sends a notification to the user’s smartphone or any other paired device making him/her aware of the recent activity at home. Today, manufacturers are coming up with sensors that can differentiate between an intruder exploring your house and your pet freely moving inside your premises. Wireless theft protection sensors are designed to alert you when someone attempts to move any valuable belongings attached to those. Besides, intrusion alarm systems are also gaining tremendous popularity among the working professionals who have to leave homes locked for more than ten hours a day. Ideal for basements, bathrooms and kitchens, environmental sensors detect floods, leaks and extreme temperatures to avert fatal accidents. For those who have to leave behind their aged family members for the entire day alone at home, an emergency button is mandatory. By pressing the button, one can send signals to the central station to call the police or hospital when the alarm is triggered.

The reasons why Intelligent home security systems are gaining huge popularity are: • Intelligent home security devices require the least human intervention. One doesn’t need to have the technical expertise to use or handle these devices as they are designed to be circumspect on your behalf. Therefore, all the operations go smooth and steady. • These systems cut down your expenses as well. Hiring a trained, efficient and trustworthy security guard is a costly affair these days.

You will have to bear a recurring expense of paying his salary every month but can’t have complete control over how earnestly he is doing his job. On the other hand, if you set up an intelligent security system, you will only have to make a one-time payment of the installation charges. Also, you can stay worry-free about the accuracy with which these devices secure a house. Besides, even a layman can be taught or trained to operate these devices. • Smart Home apps are available that helps you to authenticate a visitor(delivery boys, postman etc) and approve their entry. This is beneficial for those staying in apartments or gated residential societies. Where CCTVs can merely capture the image of a visitor, the app with an approval-based feature can reduce crimes to a great extent. • Features like attendance reports and digital tracking empower a user with all the data required to create the home premises safer. • One of the recent innovations, SpotCams, can record in full HD and offer a facility of continuous recording and saving on the cloud. The concept of cloud-based connected technology provides unparalleled access to the home security system irrespective of the location you are in. These devices can be controlled through Google Home, Amazon

Alexa, Nest and more.

Cloud AI can easily get processed remotely, whereas, edge AI takes place on the hardware. The gap between cybersecurity and physical security is bridged by the edge AI’s real-time analysis, lack of latency issues, encryption and storage of biometric information. The AI technology performs tasks like unlocking a smartphone using facial recognition. However, to do edge computing and run all algorithms, one requires a zealous server. Making security a cohesive part of a smart home, AI brings in a higher level of user-friendliness. The concept of intelligent home security systems has slowly shifted from a futuristic idea to a new-age status symbol.
