Ooma Expands Home Security with Features Convenient for Home Owners and Tough on Intruders
January 09 2018 - 8:30AM
Ooma, Inc. (NYSE:OOMA), a smart communications platform for
business and consumers, today announced its Ooma Home security
solution now includes a smart video camera with Artificial
Intelligence for facial and audio recognition to give homeowners
extra protection and peace of mind. Ooma Home also now includes
geofencing capabilities to automatically arm and disarm the
security system, with customizable radius to provide flexibility to
meet homeowners’ unique security needs.
In addition to the security camera and geofencing feature, Ooma
is releasing a siren and smoke detector, making Ooma Home Security
a comprehensive solution that provides safety for homeowners when
at home or away. The new siren has a 100dB alarm that sounds when a
sensor is triggered when the system is armed. The fully-certified
smoke detector works harmoniously with Ooma Home to alert
homeowners when smoke is detected, whether they are at home or on
the road. Ooma is also announcing integration with the VTech garage
door sensor to alert homeowners if their garage door is left
open.
“Ooma continues to push the innovation envelope in the smart
home category by enabling new services like Ooma Home, the most
complete and affordable DIY home security solution for protecting
family and property,” says Eric Stang, CEO of Ooma. “By adding a
smart video camera, geofencing and additional wireless sensors,
integrated with our unique Remote 911 emergency communications,
we’re providing safety, security and peace of mind to families
throughout North America.”
Ooma’s new Butterfleye AI-powered video camera is an
intelligent, wire-free security camera that learns from what is
going on around it. The Butterfleye camera can detect and recognize
people, pets, and sounds to prevent false alarms, and is robust
enough to continue working during Internet and power outages. The
camera also features advanced battery technology, 16 gigabytes of
internal storage and onboard image processing.
Designed as part of the Ooma smart home phone service, Ooma Home
security already includes motion, water, door and window sensors
and a Remote 911 call feature to connect users with their local
emergency services dispatcher from anywhere in the world, providing
all-encompassing protection and peace of mind for consumers. Users
can easily customize the system with a variety of real-time
notifications, including a phone call, SMS, email alerts and app
notifications. Users can also program the sensors to trigger the
Butterfleye video camera to record, while benefitting from its
face, person and audio recognition capabilities to avoid false
alarms triggered by people they know, pets, or other
inconsequential events.
Setting up the garage door, smoke detector and siren with Ooma
Home Security is easy using the Ooma Home Security Mobile App for
iOS and Android mobile devices.
