High-Definition Smart Cameras
If you’re concerned about a possible intruder on your property, you want to see the person clearly. Unfortunately, an old surveillance camera won’t give you a high-definition image. Smart cameras capture HD video with crystal-clear images (day and night), and they allow you to take control of them by panning, tilting, and zooming in on the intruder or incident. If something goes “bump” in the night, you’ll be able to view the source right from your smart home tablet – in living color and high definition.
An Alarm System That’s Always Watching
It’s impossible to keep all eyes on your property 24 hours a day. Or maybe you can! Not only can you depend on your smart surveillance cameras, but a robust home alarm system comes equipped with state-of-the-art motion sensors with ranges of 30 or more feet. Best of all, the motion sensors and cameras include face and object recognition technology. They recognize the difference between a man in your backyard and a stray cat. You can also create rules to prevent false alarms. So, if the system identifies a family member’s face, it won’t sound the alarm.
Video Doorbells and Smart Locks
Who’s at the door? Look at your smart home tablet or smartphone to see. For instance, the Control4 Chime is a video doorbell that lets you see who’s there, talk to them, and even let them in (if you have smart locks). And you don’t need to be home to do it! Whether you’re enjoying a movie in your home theater or you are miles away, you can speak with the person remotely from your smart device. Also, having the ability to communicate with someone at the door gives your home the appearance of occupancy.
Immediate Mobile Alerts
Another thing that makes a home alarm system so smart is its mobile alert feature. It used to be that a residential alarm could do one thing – sound an alarm when someone invades your home. And even then, there were often false alarms. Now, because these systems are intuitive and connected wirelessly, you receive mobile alerts when there is a real threat or intrusion. At the same time, the system also texts you if a door or window is left open, you forget to close the garage door, or a child has arrived home safely. Bet your old alarm can’t do that!
Take Complete Control of Your Alarm System
Integrate your alarm system with your Control4 home automation system, and you’ll enjoy total command of your home’s security – from the locks and video doorbells to your cameras and motion sensors. You can also make adjustments from your Control4 tablet or smartphone. Unlike older security systems, there are many customizable features that allow you to modify your smart alarm system to your specific needs.
