Multifunctional Smart Smoke Detectors

The sfty Device Aims to Simplify the Security Business

— February 5, 2018 — Tech
sfty is a smart device that aims to enhance the security of homeowners and businesses, while offering multiple functions that enhance users' experience with the device.

The device is accompanied by the sfty app, which offers a variety of safety-enhancing functions. It connects users to family and friends, who will be notified if an emergency takes place, and can then take the appropriate actions. The device itself offers a precise smoke detecting function, as well as a motion sensor that can be turned on and off – which would likely be of most use when users are going away for extended periods of time.

The sfty is also able to measure the temperature and humidity levels of the room it is placed in.
