About

HomeCare

Read full description

HomeCare is a home monitoring system that uses Cognitive Systems' core Wi-Fi Sensing technology, WiFi Motion. This software detects motion by interpreting changes in WiFi signals transmitted between connected IoT devices. WiFi Motion has been specifically designed to provide ultimate privacy, as it eliminates the need for cameras, sensors, and microphones to detect and locate motion. HomeCare has been designed to demonstrate how an end-user would engage with WiFi Motion for a Do-It-Yourself home monitoring service. The existing functionality can be seamlessly integrated into a service provider's own application. HomeCware Features - Home & Away Modes: Toggle between modes to arm and disarm your system. When set to Away, real-time alerts will be sent when motion is detected inside the home. - Last Motion Detected: View when motion was last detected in the home. - Motion History: Track activity patterns and gain insights through your household's motion history - Live Motion: View where motion is happening in real-time - Motion Sensitivity: Adjust motion sensitivity to increase or decrease the level of motion required to trigger detection. - Custom Alerts: Set custom notifications based on expected motion at home. - Members: Share your home monitoring experience with family or other household members. **Please note that HomeCare currently requires specific hardware that supports our WiFi Motion technology. This sample app is intended for trial participants and is not commercially available at this time.
