Eve’s HomeKit products have been some of my favorites for many years. Between products like the Eve Water Guard and the popular Thread enabled Eve Energy, its commitment to HomeKit has made it a fan favorite for people building a smart home around HomeKit. Today, Eve brings the Eve Outdoor Cam to the market with the first-ever floodlight with HomeKit Secure Video support.
Originally announced back in January, Eve Outdoor Cam is designed with your privacy in mind. It’s built from the ground up where only authorized HomeKit users can access it remotely using a Home hub (HomePod or iPad). Video recordings are stored securely and fully encrypted in your iCloud account using Apple’s HomeKit Secure Video technology.
Video recorded on your private property shouldn’t be x-rayed in a cloud, not to mention exposed to some company database,” says Jerome Gackel, CEO, Eve Systems. “Thanks to HomeKit Secure Video, Eve Outdoor Cam relies on your Home Hub’s on-device intelligence to deliver state-of-the-art security with maximum privacy – while bringing a stunning, all-in-one design.
The Motion Light in Eve Outdoor Cam is based on autonomous automations running on device, so it works independently of HomeKit or a Wi-Fi or internet connection. The Motion Light will respond to any movement, even if HomeKit Secure Video notifications or recordings are off to HomeKit security settings. With a built-in ambient light sensor, Eve Outdoor Cam can be set to illuminate the field of view only when it’s dark.
