later this month. The flagship 4K HDR wire-free security camera system is
powered by the Arlo SmartHub which will deliver additional support
for Zigbee and Z-Wave compatible smart home devices later in

HDR wire-free security camera system will begin rolling out to

system which includes a one-year subscription to Arlo Smart
Premier, Arlo's AI and computer vision powered service that
delivers 30-day video history cloud storage and sophisticated

Arlo Ultra captures and outputs 4K
video quality from the lens to the user, thanks to an advanced
image sensor and HDR processing. Users will experience enhanced
detail and clarity and are able to zoom in on video clips to
uncover details such as license plates and clothing. With an
expansive 180-degree diagonal field of view, Arlo Ultra delivers
one of the widest viewing angles in the wire-free security camera
industry, providing users with more flexibility when positioning
their camera. A powerful LED integrated spotlight illuminates the
night, allowing users to see color in the dark or traditional black
and white night vision. Arlo Ultra also takes audio quality to the
next level for clearer and more natural conversations. Designed
with dual-microphones, Arlo Ultra delivers two-way audio with
advanced noise cancellation that minimizes background noises and
accentuates foreground audio, such as voices.
"As the most advanced DIY monitoring solution we've ever
launched, Arlo Ultra raises the bar for smart home surveillance.
We're excited to provide home, property and small business owners
with a convenient system that not only delivers unmatched
4K HDR image quality, AI, and
computer vision capabilities, but also enables streamlined smart
home control," said Pat Collins,
senior vice president of Arlo products. "The Arlo SmartHub that
ships with the Ultra security camera system simplifies the lives of
users, giving them the added flexibility to easily control an
ever-expanding range of third-party smart home devices through
their Arlo app."
The Arlo SmartHub functions as the nucleus of the smart home.
Engineered with ArloRF™, a proprietary two-way radio frequency
technology, the SmartHub provides Arlo devices with extended
battery life and superior long-range wireless coverage, enabling
hassle-free communication between the SmartHub and Arlo devices. In
the second half of 2019, the SmartHub will also become Zigbee and
Z-Wave capable. This compatibility will allow Arlo users to control
a wide-range of "Works with Arlo" certified third-party smart home
devices via the Arlo app, giving them one central monitoring and
controlling touchpoint for a simplified smart home experience. As
part of the Arlo ecosystem, the SmartHub will also support the
newly announced Arlo Security System, comprised of the versatile
Arlo Multi-Sensor, Arlo Siren and Arlo Remote, enabling a
comprehensive security solution.
Boasting a convenient wire-free setup and weather-resistant
design, Arlo Ultra cameras can be installed nearly anywhere
outdoors or indoors. Featuring a newly designed magnetic mount,
Arlo Ultra enables easy mounting to ceilings, walls, eaves, or
position on tables or counter surfaces. Ultra is powered by a newly
designed rechargeable battery and magnetic charging cable. Arlo
Ultra also features a built-in siren that can be automatically
triggered by motion, audio detection, or manually activated
remotely from the Arlo app for added protection.
Each Arlo Ultra system includes a one-year Arlo Smart Premier
subscription (a $119.88 value), to
provide users with a more personalized, intelligent smart home
security experience. The subscription service utilizes powerful AI
and computer vision technology to deliver customized notifications
regarding people, animal, vehicle and package
detection3. These deeper insights about detected
activity, paired with e911 access to emergency services local to
the camera's location instead of the user's location, enable Arlo
subscribers to not only monitor, but also take swift action in
urgent situations. Arlo Smart Premier also includes cloud
recordings of video clips at 1080p or lower resolution for up to 30
days3. Premium video recording for cloud storage of
4K clips is available as an add-on
subscription, or users can store 4K
clips locally at no added cost using the SmartHub's microSD card
slot.
