Samsung представил сегодня 3 новых устройства из IoT-линейки SmartThings — умную камеру, лампочку и штекер. Всё это уже можно купить (по крайней мере в США). Приборы отлично подходят для тех, кто только приступает к созданию «умной экосистемы» в своём доме. Дополнительное преимущество продукции Samsung — привлекательная цена, которая ниже, чем у многих конкурентов.
Например, камера SmartThings Cam за $89,99 стоит заметно дешевле, чем Nest Cam или Amazon Cloud Cam, однако не уступает им по характеристикам. Устройство записывает видео в формате Full HD с поддержкой HDR, обладает углом обзора в 145 градусов, двусторонней аудиосвязью и ночным видением. Кроме того, она может отслеживать перемещения людей. Для просмотра видеопотока достаточно активировать фирменное мобильное приложение SmartThings или телевизор марки Samsung на TIZEN OS.
Все видео отправляются с камеры в облачное хранилище. Для одного клиента доступно бесплатное хранение данных с 4-х камер в течение 24 часов. Заплатив $7,99 в месяц или $79,99 за год, можно увеличить этот срок до 30 дней, а количество камер — до 8-ми. При этом стандартные функции камеры не требуют подключения к облачному сервису.
Просматривать изображение с камер можно как с персональных мобильных и носимых устройств Samsung (смартфонов, планшетов и смарт-часов), так и со стационарных (не только с телевизоров, но и с холодильников серии Family Hub, а в перспективе и с других приборов, которые будут оснащены полноценными дисплеями).
Второе устройство линейки, WiFi Smart Plug, - это умный штекер для подключения к одной розетке сразу двух приборов. По функциям он очень похож на Smart Plug от Amazon, но стоит всего $17,99 и, помимо Alexa, работает также с Google Assistant. Наконец, лампочка Smart Bulb за $9,99 — стандартная светодиодная лампочка мощностью 9 Вт с интенсивностью свечения 806 лм.
Все 3 устройства способны работать с голосовыми помощниками Samsung Bixby, Amazon Alexa и Google Assistant.
