KODAK Smart Security Systems launches into UK Smart Home Market

KODAK Smart Security Systems has today officially launched a range of smart home security systems in the UK. Initially available are a range of IP full HD outdoor and indoor motorised cameras and sensor systems. Bringing to market a new range of products, KODAK Smart Security Systems is enabling customers to create their own secure home network that can be controlled and viewed directly through the free to download, KODAK Security mobile app. Available immediately from Amazon and Box.co.uk , the EP101WG (Outdoor Camera) is priced at RRP £169.99 while the IP101WG (Indoor Camera) comes in a range of kits – the standalone camera RRP £129.99, the starter kit RRP £149.99 and the premium kit RRP £199.99. Launched by licensee Liz Invest the KODAK Smart Security System cameras are the first in a range of products with some unique features and add-ons. The indoor Starter and Premium kits include the IP101WG Indoor IP full HD, motorised camera alongside additional security sensors. The Starter Kit comes with one door sensor and a remote control while the Premium Kit comes with two door sensors, one motion sensor and a remote control. The outdoor EP101WG is encased in a dome, ensuring it’s waterproof and weather protected for use in any environment. Each camera can be remotely controlled by the KODAK Security app, available for both Android and iOS smartphones, which also enables them to preset three sensor positions when added to their IP101WG or EP101WG camera. If one sensor is triggered, the camera will automatically turn to the corresponding sensor. Up to six sensors can be added to either camera. Both the IP101WG and EP101WG cameras deliver amazing 1080p full HD quality video directly to your smartphone or tablet. Using the app, users can control the pan and tilt of the camera enabling them to view anyone in the perimeter of their home or to watch activity within a specific room. In addition, the indoor camera has two-way audio, meaning it can be used as a parental camera for child or pet locations – while the outdoor camera contains a mic which records audio alongside the video. Recordings can be saved onto an internal SD card or can be linked to a Google Cloud account – all without the need for additional subscriptions. “Bringing these KODAK smart home products to market adds weight to the industry,” said David Haddad, CEO, KODAK Smart Security Systems. “KODAK is renowned for quality products that deliver great visual results. Our cameras and sensors are among a suite of smart home systems that we’ll be bringing to market via our retail and online partners throughout 2018 and into early 2019. It’s an exciting time for KODAK Smart Security Systems and we’re looking forward to securing many UK homes over the next year or two.”

Security company in Bellevue vandalized

BELLEVUE, Neb. (KMTV) - An Omaha home security company based out of Bellevue is using its own camera to help track down a thief who stole items from outside their building. Chris Malmberg, the owner of Omaha Security Systems Inc. says an unidentified man stole nearly $300 worth of landscaping Sunday night. "The motion sensors went off and I got a notification on my phone that he was there. We saw him take the plants, we watched him drive away and then immediately contacted police," said Malmberg. "He was real nervous, but he ended up stealing shrubbery, Hosta plants, I mean - never in my life have I ever known somebody to steal landscaping." Malmberg said the plants could be replaced, but what's frustrating is that this is one of several vandalism incidents his business has experienced since OSSI moved into the building near Jefferson and Mission Ave. "We've had vandalism, we've had items stolen, or attempted to be stolen, with the security that we...

Study: Majority of U.S. Broadband Households Concerned About Security of IoT Devices

As Internet-connected devices become more ubiquitous, security and privacy concerns of end users are also on the rise. Simply installing security systems in smart homes is no longer enough. Security integrators must also consider bolstering cybersecurity measures when installing their systems. A recently released whitepaper from IoT research firm Parks Associates, titled “Residential Security and Encryption: Setting the Standard, Protecting Consumers,” reveals that 64% of U.S. broadband households are concerned about security and privacy when using their connected devices. Parks Associates also found that the majority of homeowners assume security integrators are addressing their cybersecurity concerns. In fact, a Parks Associates survey of U.S. security owners found 63% of professionally monitored subscribers believe the wireless signals from their system are encrypted, even though encryption is currently not the industry-wide standard. While the whitepaper outlines a few ...

Ring Alarm review: A great DIY home security system with the potential to become even better

Ring builds some of our favorite video doorbells and security camera/outdoor lighting mashups. Now the company—recently acquired by Amazon—is moving inside the home with a strong and inexpensive DIY home security system: Ring Alarm. It’s a fantastic product today, and Ring says it will only get better with time. Ring Alarm is positioned as a mainstream home security system, and while you won’t find a great deal of innovation here (there’s nothing like the Nest Detect sensor that comes with the much-more-expensive Nest Secure system , for example), it’s already equipped with everything it needs to grow into a comprehensive smart home system. Ring Alarm doesn’t support smart lighting controls, door locks, thermostats, garage-door openers, or other common smart home products today, and there’s a very short list of supported third-party products. But it lacks nothing needed to support those and similar devices down the road. And in an intervi...
