Alarm.com (Nasdaq: ALRM) Wellcam™, the first smart home video
solution designed to connect families and empower healthy,
independent living, is a Security Today 2020 New Product of the
Year Award winner for Fire & Life Safety. Wellcam helps
families, medical professionals and others monitor the activity and
well-being of loved ones or patients in their own home or a
healthcare setting.
The demand for solutions like Wellcam is growing as individuals
and organizations require non-intrusive, cost-effective services to
help them look after people they care for, especially with social
distancing guidelines in place due to COVID-19.
“With the shortage of PPE earlier in the year, Wellcam was the
perfect solution for a nearby hospital to keep the medical staff
from needing to enter rooms to care for ill patients,” said Matt
Vincent, owner of Smart Solutions, LLC in Bowling Green, Ky. “The
staff could efficiently oversee multiple rooms at once, speak
directly to patients to address their concerns and even monitor the
entire room, specifically the patient vital signs on the hospital
equipment screens. Outside of a hospital setting, I see Wellcam’s
technology, joined with the Alarm.com mobile app, to be very useful
in the home and in a range of businesses.”
Wellcam sends automatic activity alerts and smart notifications
to keep caregivers and families informed that all is well or
trouble may be developing. Other important Wellcam features
include:
- Two-way audio with Push to Call button. Without having
to use a phone, a person in need can simply tap Wellcam's call
button to contact family members, who connect to view live video
and hear audio.
- Check in anytime with the mobile app. Family and medical
professionals can use mobile and web apps to check live video as an
additional safety net. Wellcam has a 180° field of view, 1080p
high-definition resolution, Digital Enhanced Zoom and night
vision.
- Catch up with Highlights. The Alarm.com Mobile App
automatically assembles a video summary of a loved one’s daily
activities logged by Wellcam, making it easy to quickly review
their day without disturbing them.
- Powered by Alarm.com. Secure and private video
communications through the trusted Alarm.com security platform
helps ensure reliable connections and the delivery of essential
life safety services to millions of people.
“The need to stay connected with family and loved ones is
greater now than ever before,” said Steve Chazin, VP of products at
Alarm.com. “Wellcam extends the power of modern security systems to
help protect and connect people wherever they live. We’re thrilled
that Security Today deems Wellcam a New Product of the Year. This
recognition underscores just how critical innovations like Wellcam
are in helping all of us look after one another, regardless of
whether we’re feet or miles apart.”
