Smartphone-Reporting Security Systems

This Smart Security Device Corresponds With Your Mobile

— July 24, 2013 — Lifestyle
This smart security device will send you personalized memos like: "Looks like there's some movement at home. Are you expecting anyone?" The Canary is a safeguard for your home; with its built-in HD camera, high quality microphone and motion detector, the device will pick up any red flag signals. The Canary will communicate with you when you're away from home through its corresponding smartphone app.

The Canary's wide angle lens will capture what's going on at your home; the smartphone app will show you this in real-time video. The device also has a built-in siren and LED lights to alarm intruders. Aside from security watching, the Canary will also report to you how hot, cold and humid it is inside your home. It even has an air quality sensor. The best part is that you'll be updated with exactly what the Canary's detectors are sensing.
