The Arlo Touchless Video Doorbell was announced by the brand at CES 2021 in response to the ongoing pandemic where consumers and brands alike continue to seek out ways to make everyday products more suited for life in the new normal.
The doorbell is expected to feature a proximity sensor that will detect when a visitor comes to the home and will prompt them with a chime when they reach the door. This will let them know that their presence has been detected and that the homeowner has been alerted with a notification without the need for any button to be pressed.
The Arlo Touchless Video Doorbell is enhanced with a 180-degree field-of-view functionality that will let users see the visitor head-to-toe or even check if a package has been left at the doorstep.
