Equipped with the latest features, “camera” enables real-time, WLAN-based video transfer (Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n) and HD 720p video quality with up to 30 FPS. The one-megapixel 0.25-inch CMOS image sensor with automatic white balance, the 30 infrared LEDs with an illumination range of up to 15 meters and a field of view of 80° in the horizontal and 45° in the vertical deliver flawless picture quality, even in night-vision mode. Audio data, too, is of course recorded and transmitted thanks to the built-in microphone.

“For Gigaset elements users, “camera” represents major added value in the form of video data. Even while traveling elements customers can easily see now that everything is alright at home dur-ing their absence,” says Torsten Velker, Head of Home Solutions at Gigaset. “In addition, we are opening up completely new applications for the system – for example monitoring pets, keeping an eye on the kids, or indeed any situation at all where you want to take a look inside your own four walls.”

Gigaset handles the data obtained with extreme responsibly. “camera” uses the WPA2 encryption and directly transmits the data to the Gigaset elements cloud. All systems processing this data are safety checked by Gigaset and external partners. Numerous external tests, for example by the German WirtschaftsWoche magazine (issue 11, 2014), prove the high security standard of the el-ements system. ”Our customers trust is of particular importance to us,” affirms Torsten Velker. “We want to point out that our business model is founded on the sale of equipment and services, not trading our customer’s data.”

The “camera” packages
For the first time, “camera” enables users to choose additional options in the form of various pack-ages. The Freemium package, which provides basic features, is already included in “camera.” To give users an overview of the functions offered by the different packages – ‘Safety,’ ‘Smart’ and ‘Director’s Cut’ – users have the option of testing all functions in a ‘Welcome’ package for the price of €0.89 within the first three months of purchase. After this test phase, users then decide individu-ally which package they would like to subscribe to. They can choose between monthly and annual services. The monthly packages offer the greatest possible flexibility, while the annual versions are offered at a substantially reduced price. Users can buy the individual packages using in-app pur-chases billed via iTunes (iOS) or the Play Store (Google).

“We want to offer as much flexibility as possible,” says Torsten Velker. “For example – users who just want to keep an eye on their property while they are on summer holidays can sign up to a package for one or two months without tying themselves to these functions for a whole year.”
