Review Netatmo Welcome Home Video Camera Wi-Fi with Face Recognition.
Netatmo is a brand that already over time has become known for its excellent smart already reviewed by best-tech equipment, such as smart thermostat and smart weather station, combining a refined technology choices to a simple and timeless design.
The latest addition to the trans-Alpine house is the Welcome camera, a small electronic bloodhound, positioned next to the Home entrance door, silently observe anyone entering, increasing the sense of safety, even when we are out.
Aesthetics is pleasant, similar to the Weather station sensors of the same house, though by varying the color is golden time comes instead of anodized aluminum. The camera is designed for indoor use, out with rain or damp heat may be damaged, is not designed to be used outside. Installation is very simple.
You connect the LAN cable (10/100 Mbits) or via wifi (Wifi 802.11 b / g / n (2.4G)) by entering the password of your network, then you can do everything directly from the application for Android or iPhone (also web), from login to your account NEtatmo, information privacy, the confirmation that the camera is ours, and it may be verified. The app asks us to turn it over and put it back straight, transaction whereby. We attesteremo that we have full access to the camera, and then confirm to be our property.
The interesting thing is definitely pious face recognition, which allows you to be able to set of certain actions (records video, send notification) when a particular person is recognized, or no, for example, if a person is recognized that we do not want to be notified for various reasons.
To function face recognition needs a few days of adjustment to learn and recognize the people who move usually within range of the cam which has a 130° viewing radius.
Video is recorded at 4MP in full HD 1,920×1,080 at 24 frames per second with audio in mono to 16,000 Mhz AAC format even in the night thanks to be infrared (obviously if records in the dark thanks to the infrared image you will see it in black and black).
Registration takes place on internal SD (provided by 8gb but can install a larger up to 32GB), this is the most negative side of the camera. Recording on SD is a huge flaw, for the simple fact that if one enters and takes me away the camera, the face-recognition feature goes to hell.
While recording begins to warm a lot especially if you leave it to record for long enough periods or continuous, the aluminum monobloc easily exceed 43°.
