‘Netatmo’ home security camera with face recognition

The ‘Welcome’ home security camera is a small 45mm-diameter (1.8in.) cylindrical device standing 155mm (6in.) tall, with a shiny metallic-gold finish and a white plastic base. The gold cylinder is punctuated by a black strip housing the 4-megapixel HD camera’s glass lens, which has a 130-degree field of view, an LED that glows red in night-vision mode and a microphone.

Opposite the lens strip, towards the bottom, are the connections: a MicroSD card slot with an 8GB card supplied (you can swap cards in and out if you wish, at the inconvenience of retraining the face recognition; otherwise older video is overwritten when the card fills up); a Micro-USB port for the AC adapter; and an RJ-45 Ethernet port for internet connectivity (wi-fi connectivity is also supported).

The Welcome is designed to stand on a flat surface near a power outlet (there’s no wall-mounting facility or battery-power option), pointing towards a door (or other key point in your house), without too much backlighting (which would reduce the face recognition efficiency). Its sleek, unobtrusive design doesn’t immediately shout ‘security

Welcome can be controlled with any number of iOS or Android devices, and everyone in your home (or even outside it) can have a user profile. Each person can choose from a number of features for the camera, such as always recording, motion-detection only, or not recording at all while that particular user is in the house.

There is no limit to how many profiles can be created per camera, and each person’s preferences can easily be changed at any time from the mobile app or website.

When your children pass in front of the camera, Welcome recognizes them using its face recognition technology.

Welcome sends the names of the people it sees directly to your smartphone. It notifies you when your children or elderly parents are home. The camera also alerts you when it sees a stranger.

Welcome’s setup is straightforward: place the camera indoors, facing your entrance, plug it in and download the App. Identify your loved ones with a simple click.
