Eve unveils first of its kind HomeKit Outdoor Cam, new details on MotionBlinds with Coulisse

Eve, one of the top HomeKit product manufacturers, is kicking off 2022 with multiple new product announcements. One of the new products is a new Eve Floodlight Outdoor Cam designed for Apple’s HomeKit Secure Video.

The Eve Outdoor Cam is built from the ground up where only you can access it remotely using a Home hub (HomePod or iPad). Eve has designed the product, so live images never reach a cloud service, not even iCloud. Video recordings are stored securely and fully encrypted in your iCloud account over HomeKit Secure Video.

“Combining elegant aesthetics with technology designed to safeguard privacy, Eve Outdoor Cam goes beyond legacy surveillance camera concepts with their conspicuous looks and manufacturer clouds”, says Jerome Gackel, CEO, Eve Systems. “Eve Outdoor Cam embodies what Eve stands for: beautiful, connected home products that set the standard for privacy-first smart homes.”
