In recent years, in Europe, the number of homes equipped with an alarm system has exploded, whether controlled by a dedicated company or through a system controlled by the user himself, such as Ring, one of Amazon’s companies.
These systems They include a control unit that manages all the accessories and it is possible to add more.. For example, if we want to install an additional camera outside or in a room that was previously a bedroom and now an office, we just have to add it through the app.
One of the most overlooked accessories for Ring alarms is the broken glass detection sensorwhich allows you to know if someone has entered through a window, without having to open it, which would ensure that its opening detector has not been triggered. It is a product very little advertised by Amazon but which can be purchased in the store itself for less than 50 dollars.
Crystals and artificial intelligence
This device is not a glass-sticking device and detects when it breaks, but works thanks to artificial intelligence. Its role is to analyze all the sounds that occur around it and, thanks to AI, to detect when this noise is that of a broken glass. You will thus be able to activate notifications or the siren immediately.
Its range allows you monitor multiple doors and windows within a 25-foot radius, allowing the same device to be used for multiple windows. In fact, it is normal to install one in each room, unless there are separate windows further away. The ideal is to use it on plants where, for example, there are no bars.
It can be placed on any flat surface or stuck to the wall or ceiling. With the Ring alarm app, which is obviously essential to use this plugin, You can make it notify only the mobile phone or also trigger the siren of the alarm itself, or the one that has been connected as an external accessory. In addition, it is compatible with devices that use Z-Wave technology. It is powered by three AA batteries included in the purchase package and is only available in white, like the rest of the products in the Ring alarm ecosystem, except for the cameras.
