I've been waiting for something like this (and daydreamed about doing something similar as a hobby) - what's holding me back from ordering immediately:
- How do I hook up an outdoor camera? Mounting instructions? Does it need power? Wifi based? (guessing it will be: "straightfoward instructions", yes, yes, but would still like details)
- A privacy statement at the very least - and ideally privacy from the ground up - perhaps via differential privacy, or maybe you allow users to pay less if they make their unencrypted photos available to your training models. IMHO privacy concerns are what are really holding back smart home tech and keeps me from adopting it.
- mrafiee 7y agoThanks for sharing. Valid points and very interesting! We have been mostly focused on building the technology before the demo and have been deferring tasks like adding more details to the website, finalizing privacy policy, etc. I expected that the focus on HN would be mostly on the technical aspects of the product, but I am realizing that HN actually cares most about the privacy aspects. We will make these a higher priority going forward. To answer your first question, the installation/requirements for our cameras are pretty much the same as the other stand alone security cams in the market (Nest, Ring, Wyze, etc.) Basically, they require power (plug into outlets) and require wifi connection.
