Things that were once dumb are now smart.

At least that’s the trend for home appliances as of late. Canary, the self-proclaimed world’s first smart home security system, is launching today on Indiegogo and it might actually work.

Crammed into the cylindrical tube is a menagerie of sensors and doohickeys that when combined form the Voltron of home security systems that learns and purportedly improves based on user behavior. Oh, and it takes less than 30 seconds to set up.

So what’s inside? All of this:

  • HD Camera w/ Night Vision and 170 degree wide angle lens
  • Wi-Fi
  • High quality microphone speaker
  • Siren
  • RGB LEDs
  • 3-axis accelerometer
  • Motion detection (Passive Infrared)
  • Temperature sensor
  • Humidity sensor
  • Air quality sensor

Not a bad mix but where Canary has the potential to really shine is in its software offering. By tapping into all the aforementioned sensors, the Canary app will be able to relay a plethora of information in real-time and learn a thing or two about you.

Learning user habits to improve services isn’t the easiest thing to do but Canary geofences a user’s device to automatically arm or disarm the system, for example.
