Create a Secure and Safer Home with Today’s Technologies

Outdoor security cameras have come a long way since they entered the market some 50 years ago. Green blobs have given way to crystal-clear images when evening falls. Static video, catching images in limited areas, has been replaced with up to 365-degree views, capturing moving objects, following them, and sending alerts to homeowners when strangers are spotted or Fido digs a hole under the fence. We’ve come an incredibly long way. 

Today’s technology has transformed home security. And, like most technologies, it’s nearly impossible to stay up with the advancements unless you’re in the industry. That’s where Atlantic Security comes in. We’ve witnessed the incredible changes firsthand, having been in the business for over 50 years.

Smart Motion Detection

Thanks to artificial intelligence (AI), today’s cameras not only detect movement but can also determine what the object is. This feature has cut down the number of false alarms significantly. No one is alerted when your friendly neighborhood squirrel passes through, but you and a professional monitoring service are notified when a stranger walks onto your property. Should you be in a meeting or vacationing in the backcountry and cannot respond, the monitoring service will call the local police for you, ensuring a timely response.

Facial Recognition

Smart outdoor security cameras learn to differentiate between friends, family, and strangers. Should your child arrive home from school before you do, you’ll receive a push notification saying, "Jayden’s at the front door.” Now, you can rest assured they're safely home from school. 

If a stranger is spotted around your home, you'll receive a push notification and a video clip. Thanks to two-way audio, you can speak to them through your security cameras.

Remote Monitoring

Mobile app integration lets you check on your home from anywhere. After your kids get home, check to make sure they locked the doors and armed the alarm. Not only can you see what’s happening, but you can also take action, locking doors, turning on lights, and adjusting security cameras from your mobile device.

Choosing the Right Cameras

There are nearly limitless options in today’s outdoor security cameras. Pan-tilt-zoom cameras let you view large areas of your property with fewer cameras. Long-range cameras are ideal for expansive estates. Night vision cameras ensure clear viewing in the dark. 

Cameras with active digital perimeter guards deter possible intruders by flashing a red LED light and initiating a loud whistle when a stranger crosses an established perimeter. You'll receive an alert letting you turn off the system if it's someone you know or call law enforcement if warranted.
