What's an IP camera with facial recognition?

Thanks to an IP camera with facial recognition, you'll know who's in your home or garden. Did the camera spot someone? You'll get a push notification with the name of the person who came in. If there's an unwanted visitor, the camera will also let you know. You can also combine the facial recognition with other smart products.

How does it work?

A security camera with facial recognition uses AI detection. This allows the camera to recognize what appears on the footage, such as a person, pet, or vehicle. Does it detect a person? The camera will compare the face to earlier footage or photos of people you added yourself. If there's a match, the camera will let you know their name. Doesn't the camera recognize the visitor? It'll also let you know.

Prevent false alarms

Prevent false alarm

Because you know who's at home thanks to the push notification, you prevent false alarm. You camera won't notify you for every movement. This way, you don't have to check every notification to see what's really happening. That puts your mind at rest. There's a smaller chance to miss an important notification. Some cameras allow you to stop the recording if it recognizes someone.

Smart home

Combine with your smart home

You can use IP cameras with facial recognition as more than smart security. You can also connect it to other smart products in your home. Because the camera knows when you get home, the thermostat turns to your ideal temperature. Or you can make the smart lights turn on automatically when you get home at night. This way, you make the home safer and more comfortable.
