Swann Outsmarts Crime With the Release of Wi-Fi Floodlight Security System

The new system can spot and prevent crime and protects what matters most with 2500-lumen motion lighting, video, siren, two-way talk and timely mobile alerts.

  • May 28, 2019

Swann has launched its newest innovation, the WiFi-enabled Floodlight Security System. The versatile security system is more than just a floodlight or security camera, it is a powerful security tool that helps you actively prevent crime and keep your home and business safe.

The system's full HD, 1080p security camera is equipped with Swann's True Detect™ heat and motion sensing technology which, when triggered, switches on two powerful LED floodlights, a loud warning siren, video recording and sends alerts to your mobile device. The super-bright, 2500-lumen floodlights can startle intruders and capture vivid high-definition video during the day or night in full color to help users discern facial detail, clothing colors, car models and more. You can also configure and customize the light brightness, siren and audio loudness and turn the system on and off from anywhere, using your mobile device. The two-way audio adds another layer of protection. Use the app to talk to visitors, such as telling delivery people where to leave a package. Alternatively, scare off intruders with an audible warning and the loud siren.

The Floodlight Security System joins Swann's popular Wire-Free Smart Security Camera, Wi-Fi Indoor Security Camera and Wi-Fi Outdoor Security Camera on the SAFE by Swann app, giving users greater visibility of what's happening around their property and peace of mind 24/7.

"We are excited to launch the Floodlight Security System as this product truly focuses on preventing crime and smartly connecting people with what's currently happening via their mobile device," said Mike Lucas, CEO at Swann. "At Swann, we recognize that perimeter security is the key to deterring unwanted activity and having the peace of mind that everything is okay at home or business."

Users can store video clips with audio to the Floodlight Security System's local memory for up to seven days. Clips can also be uploaded to the secure cloud for up to two days, or customers can choose the ExtraSafe plan for longer storage to the cloud. The system is designed for easy access of the footage that can be easily retrieved for playback on a mobile device or sharing with loved ones, friends or law enforcement.

The Floodlight Security System also seamlessly integrates with the Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa so users can use voice commands, such as "Okay Google, show me the front yard," to see video from the camera on their TV with Chromecast, or call out "Alexa, show me the front door," to see vision on their Echo Spot, Echo Show or 4K Fire TV.

It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
