Vehicle Detection, a new smart home feature that leverages the AI technology has been added to the Vivint Outdoor Camera Pro to identify when a vehicle arrives, leaves, or passes through a designated detection zone.
Vehicle Detection can help enhance security by enabling real-time alerts and recordings whenever a vehicle enters the designated area. This feature, integrated with Vivint Outdoor Camera Pro, ensures users are informed about every vehicle’s presence – from delivery trucks and grocery vans to unfamiliar cars. Upon detection, Vehicle Detection will immediately send a notification to your phone, allowing the user to view live activity outside their home. The event is also simultaneously recorded for later review.
For added convenience, the user can simply press and hold the notification on their phone to watch a short clip of the vehicle’s activity and get immediate insight without opening the Vivint app. They can also opt to snooze notifications to ensure the user only receives alerts that matter to them.
“Vehicle Detection is an exciting addition to our Outdoor Camera Pro,” said Jim Nye, chief product officer at Vivint. “Similar to our popular Person Detection feature, Vehicle Detection boosts the intelligence and efficiency of our smart home solution, providing customers with valuable, real-time information and peace of mind. We’re thrilled to enhance the capabilities of the Outdoor Camera Pro and provide customers with more insight into their home surroundings.”
Vehicle Detection is now available to all Vivint customers with a Vivint Outdoor Camera Pro. To enable the feature, simply open the Outdoor Camera Pro settings on the Vivint app, tap on “notifications” and toggle the Vehicle Detection setting to “On.”
