Google today presented its new proposal for smart cameras with which we can make our home even smarter. The proposals go through wired and battery models, seeking to offer solutions for the exterior and interior that make life easier for those users who want to place a surveillance camera in their homes.
New Google Nest home cameras
Among the novelties, one of the products they present is the new Google Nest Cam, a battery-powered surveillance device that stands as Google's first battery-powered camera that can be used both indoors and outdoors. It has a particularly striking design, since the body of the camera is attached to the base by means of magnets, making it possible to orient it to our liking with total ease.
Another novelty is the new smart doorbell, an accessory that is increasingly present in homes and where Google has also wanted to propose its product with the new Google Nest Doorbell. It is an intelligent doorbell with a built-in camera that will be in charge of answering calls at the door, thus being able to talk to the people who knock on the door whether you are at home or not.
It has an integrated battery, so you will not necessarily need wiring, unless you want to stop worrying about recharging the device forever, in which case you will have the option of powering the device with cables.
The last device presented is the indoor version of the Google Nest Cam, a simpler model that necessarily requires a cable to work and does not have a magnetized body, since it integrates its own rotating base. At the moment this model is not available in the Google Store, and we will have to wait until it can be reserved.
very smart cameras
In addition to the aesthetic aspect, Google has introduced new intelligent functions in its cameras, being able to determine surveillance zones, differentiate between people and animals, and the incorporation of machine learning to detect objects and identify important events that occur inside and outside the home. Thus, for example, they will be able to identify when a courier delivers a package, or an animal passes through the surveillance zone (so as not to set off the alarm).
All this data management and processing is done in the camera itself, so the results are immediate and highly effective.
If your camera is stolen, Google sends you another one
However, this fastening system could make many users doubt, since anyone could easily take the camera. In Google they assure that the thief will not be able to have access to your saved images, and in case of theft, you would only have to report it to the police, and 30 days later contact Google. According to them, they will send you a replacement camera as a courtesy service.
How much do they cost?
The official price of these new cameras are as follows:
- Google Nest Cam (with battery): 199,99 Euros
- Google Nest Cam (wired): 99,99 Euros
- Google Nest Doorbell (with battery): 199,99 Euros
Both the battery-powered Nest Cam and the Nest Doorbell are available for pre-order starting today, officially hitting stores starting on August 24th, XNUMX.
