Did you have RC2 windows installed?

Whereas I only use it as a better motion detector for the workshop so that I notice if I accidentally lock up the Polier (neighbor's tomcat) They are not always easy to detect with normal IR motion sensors due to their fur insulation.

However, such sensor technology is outdated; nowadays, this can be done much smarter in software. Image recognition.

Personally, I find Arlo and the like mercilessly overpriced, and cloud services are out of the question for me.

That's exactly what I mean, that's why I installed the camera.

I wouldn't use something like that for genuine alarm systems, I had long discussions about it with our security service (industry).

However, such sensors are outdated now, it can be done much smarter with software these days. Image recognition.

Personally, I find Arlo and others mercilessly overpriced and no way am I letting the cloud into my house.

If you have an aversion to the cloud, okay! But why overpriced? Arlo Pro with 4 cameras. €516 on sale yesterday.

. However, I am not surprised at all nowadays. It probably belongs to it, but nothing gets done.

Not necessarily. Last winter, two of my immediate neighbors were broken into. We are all good friends here, etc.

We were having dinner. One neighbor was sitting with his wife on the terrace having a cigarette. Another was sweeping in the driveway.

None of us four different people in different spots around the two houses heard or saw anything.

The incident was noticed because one of the victims came back from shopping. She was only away for about 30 minutes. During that time, two houses were broken into, including smashing glass panes and tearing off roller shutters.

This is not about the video or photo, but you immediately get a push notification through the activation of the camera’s motion sensors + the live image is displayed directly on your smartphone. With a smartwatch on your wrist, this kind of monitoring is unbeatable and relatively inexpensive.

Oh dear. After the 5th/10th/20th false alarm, you will curse the system and turn off these notifications.
