More and more of us have smart doorbells, alarms, and locks \u2014 but AI, together with the cloud, is set to revolutionize how these devices work.<\/p>\n<p>And much of it is down to the increasing ubiquitousness of cameras.<\/p>\n<p>These days, we expect this <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ear on our devices, but cameras offer much more than entertaining selfies in the realm of security \u2014 especially when cloud connectivity and AI underpins its capabilities. We\u2019re about to enter a whole new era of home security, and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.myspotcam.com\/\">SpotCam<\/a> wants to be central in this.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Beyond_facial_recognition\"><\/span>Beyond facial recognition<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>AI is synonymous with facial recognition, but the home security systems of the future will look beyond our faces to offer protection. Indeed, it won\u2019t be long until facial recognition is a standard feature, not the standout offering it once was.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, tech companies are taking two main approaches to their home security innovations<\/p>\n<p>The first is the extension of existing home security conventions. Think the rise of NFC keys connected to our phones and hands-free smart locks. These are examples of traditional home security products with a technological twist, the type we\u2019ve all pondered at some point with a wistful, \u201cIf only\u2026\u201d when our keys go missing.<\/p>\n<p>The second approach involves novel technologies that reinvent home security by removing the boundaries of human limitations. AI-powered night vision cameras and home surveillance drones will give users unprecedented visibility of their homes, operating beyond humans\u2019 natural capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Although both approaches are different, they cannot exist without each other. The former improves our current technologies, and the latter only become a possibility when more traditional methods gain prominence.<\/p>\n<p>Neither will happen overnight.<\/p>\n<p>But Jacky Lin, Product Manager at SpotCam, told us it will come to pass. Specifically, she told us the adoption of AI-powered home security will mirror the popularity of camera technology in the home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has become easier for people to use a DIY solution\u201d to protect their living spaces, Line said. \u201cYou just buy a WiFi camera and put it in your house\u201d and that operates as a simple home security system. Unfortunately, simple doesn\u2019t cut it anymore.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1329859 size-featured_img lazy\" alt=\"future of home security spotcam camera\" width=\"796\" height=\"527\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 796px) 100vw, 796px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-spotcam-camera-796x527.jpg\" data-lazy=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-spotcam-camera-796x527.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-spotcam-camera-280x185.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-spotcam-camera-408x270.jpg 408w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-spotcam-camera-204x135.jpg 204w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-spotcam-camera-1592x1053.jpg 1592w\"\/><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/plugged\/2020\/11\/30\/why-ai-is-the-future-of-home-security\/#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthenextweb.com%2Fplugged%2F2020%2F11%2F30%2Fwhy-ai-is-the-future-of-home-security%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: This is the Spotcam FHD 2.\" data-title=\"Share This is the Spotcam FHD 2. on Twitter\" data-width=\"685\" data-height=\"500\" class=\"post-image-share popitup\" title=\"Share This is the Spotcam FHD 2. on Twitter\"><i class=\"icon icon--inline icon--twitter--dark\"\/><\/a>This is the Spotcam FHD 2.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_march_of_advancement\"><\/span>The march of advancement<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While a bog standard WiFi camera does a job, it cannot match the feature-set and security benefits of dedicated technology.<\/p>\n<p>Lin pointed to SpotCam\u2019s latest devices as an example: the SpotCam FHD 2 and SpotCam Eva 2. Both these cameras record in full HD and include cloud-saved continuous recording. But it\u2019s with the AI features that these, and other home security devices, display the benefits of specializing.<\/p>\n<p>For example, certain home security cameras can now monitor if babies are crying or can detect pets, arguably replacing existing products for those circumstances. This AI analysis can also be used in other circumstances, such as creating virtual boundary lines that will detect a passing intruder.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Connected_security_of_cloud_based_systems\"><\/span>Connected security of cloud based systems<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Cloud-based and connected technology means security is no longer bound within the four walls of a home \u2014 and today\u2019s consumer expects unparalleled access to home security irrespective of location or device. And this expectation is only going to increase in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Lin told us this has manifested itself through device integrations, which means users can access hardware through connections with Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Nest, IFTTT, and more, thanks to the prevalence of cloud-based service platforms.<\/p>\n<p>This simple and easy access to this technology transforms home security from a siloed function to a normalised and integrated part of daily connected life \u2014 and there will be big pay-offs from this shift.<\/p>\n<p>For example, recent research from <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> foresees a future where AI robots will be able to check whether doors are locked in the house. The future is coming, and home security will play an important role in the connected household.<\/p>\n<p>SpotCam\u2019s Lin envisions the mainstreaming of home security as an avenue towards the creation of a more hospitable home environment. \u201cWe hope in the future, we can do more. For example, if it\u2019s someone you know [entering your home], you can play specific music or audio. This kind of automation can be achieved\u201d \u2014 and AI is key to making it happen.<\/p>\n<p>The desire to protect our homes is not new. Rather, it is a necessity, and its importance prompts the innovation of home security. For SpotCam\u2019s Lin, the adoption of this necessary technology is the foundation for the more carefree connected home technologies that will follow.<\/p>\n<p>But there is a pressing question that goes alongside security moving out of the four walls of home: security.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-featured_img wp-image-1329875 lazy\" alt=\"future of home security SpotCam Eva 2\" width=\"796\" height=\"297\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 796px) 100vw, 796px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-SpotCam-Eva-2-796x297.jpg\" data-lazy=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-SpotCam-Eva-2-796x297.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-SpotCam-Eva-2-280x104.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-SpotCam-Eva-2-540x201.jpg 540w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-SpotCam-Eva-2-270x101.jpg 270w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/future-of-home-security-SpotCam-Eva-2.jpg 1024w\"\/><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/plugged\/2020\/11\/30\/why-ai-is-the-future-of-home-security\/#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthenextweb.com%2Fplugged%2F2020%2F11%2F30%2Fwhy-ai-is-the-future-of-home-security%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: This, friends, is the SpotCam Eva 2 \u2014 one of the devices we mentioned earlier.\" data-title=\"Share This, friends, is the SpotCam Eva 2 \u2014 one of the devices we mentioned earlier. on Twitter\" data-width=\"685\" data-height=\"500\" class=\"post-image-share popitup\" title=\"Share This, friends, is the SpotCam Eva 2 \u2014 one of the devices we mentioned earlier. on Twitter\"><i class=\"icon icon--inline icon--twitter--dark\"\/><\/a>This, friends, is the SpotCam Eva 2 \u2014 one of the devices we mentioned earlier.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_secure_is_home_security_The_cloud_vs_edge_AI_debate\"><\/span>How secure is home security? The cloud vs edge AI debate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>First, let\u2019s define the terms. Cloud AI means its processes are done in remote locations. On the other hand, edge AI occurs on the hardware itself.<\/p>\n<p>The current era of home security devices <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>ly depend on cloud technology to deliver their features, but as home security advances, the adoption of edge AI could transform the space.<\/p>\n<p>This is important for a number of reasons. For example, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Carnage4Life\/status\/1331707774334427137\">owners of connected devices have complained they are unable to use their devices if cloud servers are down<\/a>, so edge computing presents an attractive alternative to run cloud operations locally on devices.<\/p>\n<p>Edge AI\u2019s real-time analysis, lack of latency issues, encryption, and storage of biometric information on the device bridges the gap between cybersecurity and physical security. Our concept of home security prizes user autonomy, and edge AI provides more of it.<\/p>\n<p>But don\u2019t get too excited just yet.<\/p>\n<p>Although current edge AI can support tasks like unlocking a smartphone with facial recognition, the magnitude of its application to home security means its mainstream inclusion is still a while away. As SpotCam\u2019s Lin puts it, \u201cIf you want to do edge computing, to run all algorithms, you need a dedicated server, and that architecture is not possible for residential users.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Instead, a mixed approach to cloud and edge computing is the next step, Lin told us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt this moment, edge computing is beginning to get more powerful, and every stage is still complementary to cloud computing. Maybe in the future, most services will run on edge, but this is not happening yet. We think a combination is a good approach.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AI_and_security_autonomy\"><\/span>AI and security autonomy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The adoption of AI in home security will bring a new level of visibility and ease, shifting security from an outlier technology to a cohesive part of the connected home.<\/p>\n<p>As the technology matures, we\u2019ll see more products that address security concerns and provide hospitality \u2014 but this innovation isn\u2019t just the work of technology alone. Our attitudes towards connected security devices are changing too.<\/p>\n<p>Home security is transforming from a utility to modern home comfort, and how we adopt it now will shape its future trajectory. In other words, we have the autonomy to decide how our homes are protected \u2014 and AI plays a vital role in that shift.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more information about SpotCam, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.myspotcam.com\/\">head here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><i>Did you know we have a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>letter all about consumer tech?
