GITEX is one of the largest global tech events in the calendar, a forum for key experts and leaders from all industries to come together to share and analyse current trends and forecast future tech developments.
EZVIZ is among the attendees, representing the cutting-edge of smart home technology. Exploring the theme, “Into the Easy Evolution”, the brand is pointing the way towards the next stage of smart home development.
In the Middle East, 12.5% of homes feature smart home technology, and the $8.2 billion smart home market is projected to be worth $20.74 billion by 2029. In Europe, it’s currently worth a staggering $40 billion, with smart security products in a third of homes. Meanwhile, in the UK, adoption of smart devices in the UK has increased hugely over the past few years, with over 60% of UK households now possessing one or more smart devices.
But there’s still a perception among many that smart home technology is complicated, or that its use is limited to straightforward security requirements: monitoring, locking up and activating alarms in response to intruders.
At GITEX, EZVIZ is showcasing a connected ecosystem of smart home products that illustrates the ways in which smart technology can provide so much more. Beyond the baseline of home security, there’s a convenient, comfortable smart home waiting to be discovered.
These are the key EZVIZ devices to watch out for, as they exemplify new opportunities for smart home living that combine ease of installation and set-up with fresh functionality, for comfortable, simple living.
Next-gen smart security cameras
EZVIZ has made a number of advancements in sharper, smarter home security. Its market-first security cameras provide a hugely improved experience over most commonly available models. One advancement is the brand’s innovative dual-lens technology, which is the foundation for several smart video features, including interlinked co-detection from two motorised lenses. Another is EZVIZ’s ColorFULL ultra-low light monitoring, which is supported by integrated image processing so there’s no need for spotlights.
The co-detection cameras include indoor (H7c Dual) and outdoor (H9c Dual) models. They give users, whether they are business owners, landlords or homeowners, a view of their home or premises that’s at once more detailed and wider ranging than traditional security cameras can provide, eliminating blind spots across even large or complex properties.
Within the smart security industry, there’s been a shift to battery cameras. EZVIZ has addressed customer pain points with these devices in two key areas: power and the restrictions of Wi-Fi connectivity.
Both the CB5 4K and the EB5 4K feature integral, high efficiency 1.4W solar panels, which charge in two hours of direct sunlight for a whole day’s use. This contemporary mode of charging is matched by the cameras’ sleek, modern design. Green power has never looked so good.
Meanwhile, EZVIZ’s range of 4G cameras, including the EB3 4G, use 4G LTE to stay connected for live feeds and notifications, making them ideal for spots where wired installation is challenging.
Characteristically, battery camera functionality is limited by battery life and cameras usually only record when triggered. In response to this problem, EZVIZ has developed the breakthrough monitoring tech, Always-On Video (AOV), which provides all-day recording while greatly saving on power and storage space. In AOV mode, the 4K solar and 4G battery series will wake at set intervals to detect, record and store footage within the monitoring area. Even when no motion is detected, the AOV cameras will automatically produce time-lapse videos to keep users better informed.
Smart entry devices
EZVIZ has created a collection of smart entry products that can be installed by doors or gates as part of a smart security ecosystem, levelling up the entrance to a home or property with multi-purpose features for enhanced security and convenience.
While video doorbells have tended to be chunky, one-size-fits-all devices, not optimised for all types of home, EZVIZ’s collection of smart entry products – ranging from the DL05 smart fingerprint lock, which can entirely replace keys, to the HP7 video doorphone, which can be used at the entrance to a larger property – allow consumers to choose the perfect device to complete their individual home security system.
The DL05 combines powerful safety systems with multiple unlocking methods. It can be opened with a fingerprint, passcode or proximity card, or remotely, using the app. Homeowners can create temporary passcodes for couriers, dog walkers or visitors. Meanwhile, the sophisticated HP7 allows homeowners to remotely control entry to their property via the display, smart RFID tags or the EZVIZ app.
Robot cleaning
The ideal robot cleaning experience is a hands-free one, in which cleaning is genuinely automated. This requires a robot that can distinguish between a variety of flooring types and react accordingly, empty itself and perform its own cleaning and maintenance routines without user intervention.
EZVIZ’s flagship RS20 Pro comes with its own charging station, which takes on these jobs, and features a range of innovative features that come together to take the dirty work of cleaning out of users’ hands. The result is a seamless, high-quality cleaning experience that protects expensive carpets and even marble flooring.
For the outdoors, a further innovation can be expected in the form of a robotic lawnmower, the RM600, which EZVIZ is debuting at GITEX for feedback. The RM600 offers a packaged lawn-care solution, mowing more than 600 m2 of lawn per day, which is three times as efficient as some traditional models.
GITEX is hosted at Dubai World Trade Center from 14-18 October. You can find EZVIZ’s booth at Stand C80, in Hall 26. Find out more about the products on display at EZVIZ’s online GITEX booth, or browse the full range of EZVIZ products on its website.
