Designed and manufactured by Arlo Technologies, the new Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera is created to offer ultimate security while protecting personal privacy.
The project has been awarded a 2021 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Unlike other indoor monitoring solutions, Arlo Technologies’ Essential Indoor Security Camera with an easy-to-control, visually contrasting privacy shield.
This functional design element differentiates the privacy shield from the camera body so users can easily distinguish, at-a-glance, whether the camera is enabled or disabled to ensure private moments remain private.
With the privacy shield in disarm mode, recording, motion, and audio detection stops and won’t begin again unless the user opens the shield via the Arlo App.
Users can easily manage the privacy shield to begin recording by starting a live video stream or changing the camera to arm mode.
This purposeful design decision allows consumers to decide when their camera is monitoring a room and recording video, and when it is not.
The added layer of discretion further reinforces Arlo’s peace of mind promise by putting the power in users’ hands.
With thoughtful design and robust performance specifications, the Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera satisfies a variety of indoor monitoring use cases.
From monitoring babies, pets, and elderly family members, to enabling small business owners to easily monitor stock rooms or their shop’s main floor, the Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera provides unparalleled peace of mind.
Users can enjoy hi-res 1080p HD video quality, and clear two-way communications thanks to a built-in microphone, and a convenient built-in siren to help deter intruders.
The Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera features an elegant, premium unibody design aesthetic to complement home or business interiors.
Available in white and black, the camera features a versatile, integrated swivel mount that enables users to easily manipulate the angle and mount the camera on walls or tables to find the vantage point that best satisfies the specific use case.
The Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera boasts compatibility with more third-party smart home platforms than any other competitor on the market.
The camera works with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit (when paired with a compatible Smart Hub), Samsung SmartThings, and If-Then That (IFTTT) to ensure seamless smart home integration, automation, and control.
The Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera is also complemented by AI subscription-based service, Arlo Smart, to deliver total protection.
Users receive a complimentary three-month Arlo Smart trial included with their Essential Indoor Security Camera purchase.
Arlo Smart provides extended 30-day rolling cloud storage of 1080p HD video recordings for added peace of mind.
Smarter, customizable notifications enable users to detect people and animals inside the home.
And when help is needed, Arlo Smart’s e911 feature allows users to react faster by connecting to emergency services local to the camera’s location instead of waiting to be rerouted from the location linked to their smartphone–saving precious moments in emergency situations.
Controlled entirely through the Arlo App, users can easily view live streams and recordings, adjust their camera settings, or access cloud recordings.
