The Makings of a Smart Security System
A smart security system creates an ecosystem of connected devices that work together. Electronic door locks, security cameras, motion sensors, automated lights, and motorized shades and windows connect to one platform.
Because these systems are smart, they know the difference between animals and people as well as strangers and family. When something unexpected occurs, such as a stranger walking up your driveway, you receive a push notification and a video clip.
Before the unthinkable occurs, you can lock the doors, turn on the floodlights, tell them they've been spotted through the two-way audio, and call law enforcement. And you can do this no matter where you are in the world.
Simulate Occupancy
Police suggest effective presence simulation is one of the best ways to prevent theft. When you leave for the day or an extended trip, press the ‘Away’ button. In response, your smart home randomly turns the lights and TV on and off and raises and lowers the motorized shades, creating the illusion that someone is home.
