Add more and different smart devices

[CamFan]

Add more and different smart devices.

Example: Smoke / Water / CO2 / .. sensors for more push alerts.

Intercom inside the camera

Cool, a live intercom over internet to for a: "Hey what are you doing here, you know your face is on my video now? Turn around and go or I will call the police."

or a separet device like a doorbell.
Hey, the actual market haven't anything 2 familie house that need more than one doorbell at the entrance. (except you want to buy something for 2000€)

And we need WLAN Actors (Door opener contracts triggered from the app, NO (NormalOpen) or NC relais or Power On/Off) or extra lamps that can be triggered via app or from the doorbell for example a chime.  

A Plug-In cam if you not want to change batteries. Or an waterresistend add on case (like some cases for cell phones with an extra power accu) accu pack that keep the camera 10 times longer online as the smal batteries.

A secured cam that you can mount outside at the entrance, that can't be stolen so easly. At minimum a kind of kensington lock for my camera.

Enough ?

Best regards

Are there add on items like temperature sensors for Arlo?

[BigBrother]

I am very happy with my Arlo cameras.
I recently bought a Ring system and the quality of the camera and software is no where near what you guys have created.
I would gladly buy an Arlo system that served that purpose.

1. A doorbell that rings your phone

2. Camera in the doorbell, night vision etc

3. Hook up to open deadbolt remotely with notifications 

4. Allow owner to look through camera and speak from phone

5. Scheduling 

6. Have custom sounds and messages play through doorbell

7. Different mounting options 

8. plugin usb Battery hook up for remote charging

9. Solar charging

Great Suggestion! Thanks for sharing. You can also post in the Arlo Idea Exchange where you'll find other suggestions like this!

Thank you for your contribution!

Great idea, yes please.

Recebtly, I have shopped for two items which I think would be great to see created for Arlo's base station... a doorbell with sound and video, and smart light bulbs.

A thermostat control for a home's HVAC, and a TV remote would be nice, too Once the base station is in place, there are so many possibilities. It'd be nice to have all the new technology run by a single base unit.

I love this system and would love to have even more smart-home-stuff added to my base stasjon. What about developing an Arlo doorbell or an Arlo gas/ smoke/ fire detector? Arlo Q could work great as an 'add on' for a regular doorbell notifying me when someone is at the door and letting me speak to them, but sadly it's not suitable for outdoor use.. Would be cool to have an Arlo remote control device for opening the garage or turning lights or heat on/ off by motion or schedule-mode. Keep up the good work! Grow, develop and optimize and I will be a long term costumer of your products!

Enur,

Thank you for the high praise! I will move this thread to the Arlo Idea Exchange so that your suggestions get proper exposure to the development team.

Thank you for your contribution,

About a year ago Netgear and Xfinity Home announced that the Arlo camera would be a compatible addition to the Xfinity Home system and app. Has there been any progress made on this? At the same time the Chamberlain MyQ garage door opener was announced and that has been integrated already. Thanks.

I read that awhile ago too.  cant seem to find anything other than the announced partnering of xifinty and arlo.
