Arlo unveils advanced fire detection technology with real-time alerts

Arlo unveils AI-powered fire detection, offering real-time alerts and early warning for home safety. Available with Arlo Secure 5 Plus in Singapore.

Arlo Technologies, a prominent name in smart home security, has introduced a new fire detection feature aimed at enhancing home safety. This innovative technology notifies users the moment a flame is detected, offering critical time to respond and protect their property. The feature, part of Arlo’s Secure 5 Plus subscription, empowers users to act quickly, whether they’re at home or away, by providing real-time alerts and enabling rapid communication with emergency services.

Smart fire detection for early response

Arlo’s advanced fire detection system leverages artificial intelligence to identify flames, even before smoke becomes visible. Unlike traditional smoke detectors, this proactive approach ensures users are alerted to potential danger at the earliest stage.

Key benefits of Arloโ€™s fire detection feature:

  • Instant alerts: Notifications are sent directly to your smartphone when flames are detected.
  • Remote action: Whether youโ€™re at work, on holiday, or just away from home, you can contact emergency services immediately.
  • Wide coverage: Arlo cameras provide comprehensive monitoring, safeguarding kitchens, living areas, and other key spaces.
  • Prevention-focused: Early detection helps users address small fires before they escalate into significant hazards.

This cutting-edge solution complements Arlo’s range of indoor and outdoor cameras, ensuring users can utilise this feature without needing additional hardware.

How the technology works

Arloโ€™s fire detection technology employs AI to recognise flames rather than relying on smoke, setting it apart from standard smoke detectors. Available through the Secure 5 Plus subscription, this feature detects visible flames during the initial stages of a fire, enabling faster responses to potential emergencies.

The feature is designed to work seamlessly with Arloโ€™s existing security cameras, meaning users can enhance their home safety without additional expenses. However, Arlo emphasises that this video-based fire detection is a supplementary tool and should not replace traditional fire safety systems such as smoke detectors or alarms.

Availability

The fire detection feature is available now as part of the latest Secure 5 Plus update in Singapore. Existing subscribers can activate it immediately.
