home alarms
Be sure to check for outdoor ratings on home security cameras if you are looking to install outside; these need to be rugged enough to withstand weather wind, snow, rain, sun, seasonal temperature changes which can be severe, depending on your climate, humidity, and more. Similar to the motion sensor lights that became popular and more common decades ago, home security cameras on today’s market often contain the feature of motion detection. When movement is detected, you will receive notification to alert you of suspicious activity, which allows you to more closely monitor the situation remotely. However, some home security cameras can differentiate between what or who is being targeted for activity – an animal, a car, or a person. Even still, some super smart home security cameras are delving into face recognition technology, involving an automatic zoom in on the people within the field of view and a notification of recognition or unrecognition sent. Pretty amazing.
