Let Philips Hue keep an eye on your home for you with Hue Secure. The Secure camera gives you a crisp, clear livestream in 1080p quality, and it functions both as a camera and motion sensor that can shed light on suspicious activities. Get notified immediately when sound or motion is detected, and trigger light and sound alarms, speak to the person in front of the camera with the two-way talk function, or alert the authorities – all via the Hue app.
Get peace of mind whether you’re at home or away from home with the Hue Secure contact sensors. They’re small and discreet and have an adhesive backing, so you can easily place them on doors, windows, cabinets, safes, and wherever you’d like. Receive notifications, or even get the lights to turn on, if the sensor is activated. You can of course arm and disarm your sensors as well as combine them with other Hue Secure products to keep an eye on your home in the best way possible – and be able to take appropriate actions.
"The Philips Hue App delivers live streaming capabilities to users who have linked their Hue Secure Wired or Battery Camera to a Wi-Fi connection.
Live Streaming allows users to remotely observe events as they unfold, offering crucial insights when unforeseen events occur in the home.
Upon motion detection, users can simply tap on notifications to commence live streaming. This grants them the ability to actively oversee the detected motion and receive prompt alerts.
Should users spot anything unusual during the live stream, they can swiftly take action or make use of the Two-Way talk functionality to interact with the situation, possibly dissuading any potential intruders."
"The Video Motion Event History encompasses a collection of recorded incidents that are organized within a chronological event timeline. This timeline serves as a collection for all video clips triggered by motion events. These clips remain available for examination over a span of either 30 or 60 days, depending on the specific subscription plan chosen by the user.
When a motion event is selected from the event list, a video player interface becomes active, enabling the playback of the corresponding video clip. This feature empowers users to remotely observe occurrences within their residence, increasing the awareness of the events that have happened around and in their home.
Importantly, it should be emphasized that access to this functionality is restricted to subscription users due to the end-to-end encryption employed for the safeguarded storage of video clips within a designated cloud service."
"The Philips Hue Secure Camera showcases advanced intelligence, possessing the ability to analyze videos and distinguish the presence of individuals, animals, vehicles, or packages within the captured frame.
Within the Philips Hue App, users are empowered to personalize AI notifications, receiving specialized alerts customized to match their preferences. These notifications can range from alerts about package identification at the front door, animal sightings in the backyard, recognition of vehicles in the driveway, to the detection of individuals.
For non-subscribers, motion notifications will be generic, indicating the presence of ""motion detected"". In contrast, subscribers gain access to meticulously curated push notifications, delivering a more precise and informative notification experience."
"The Philips Hue Light Alarms, integrated within the Hue App, serve as a deterrent against intruders and acts as a means to alert the nearby community in the event of a potential security breach. Their primary purpose is to elevate home security by utilizing light, instilling a sense of reassurance even in your absence.
This distinctive feature stands as a cornerstone of the Philips Hue Security System. Activation of the Light Alarms can be effortlessly initiated with a simple tap on a button situated on the security dashboard. Moreover, users engaged in live streaming who detect disturbances or find themselves in emergencies can promptly trigger the alarms manually.
Upon activation, the lights will either flash or emit a gentle breathing effect, effectively drawing attention. The Light Alarms offer a ""Red"" light option for Philips Hue WACA light bulbs, along with the choice of the standard white light. Conversely, WA light bulbs emit a bright white light exclusively.
Users have the flexibility to assign specific rooms or zones for activating the light alarms, enabling a tailored approach to bolstering your home security."
"The Philips Hue Secure Camera, available as both a Wired and Battery powered version, comes equipped with an integrated speaker that can project sound up to 80 decibels, generating a prominent and attention-grabbing audio output reminiscent of a compact siren.
Enabling the Sound Alarm is a straightforward procedure, accomplished by tapping the Siren button located within the Take Action feature of the app. Additionally, users are provided the choice to synchronize the Sound Alarm with the light alarm, resulting in a comprehensive alarm encounter that can proficiently discourage potential intruders."
"The Philips Hue App incorporates a Two-Way Talk feature, enabling seamless communication between the app and the camera's speaker system.
To initiate Two-Way Talk, users can tap the microphone icon on the Live Streaming Screen. It's essential to bear in mind that the camera must be actively streaming for this feature to be operational. Once the microphone icon is activated, the phone establishes a connection, facilitating a walkie-talkie-style interaction where users can both listen and converse through the phone.
This capability serves a dual role. It can be harnessed by users to discourage potential intruders by issuing instructions to vacate the premises. Simultaneously, it offers practical utility, such as conversing with a visitor at the door or communicating with a package delivery person. The Two-Way Talk feature proves highly versatile within the domain of security enhancements."
