Australian security vendor to partner with Nest and others for subscription service

Swann Communications will next year launch a subscription surveillance service that will see the home CCTV vendor move beyond security and into the Internet of Things.

The home monitoring service, set for a US launch at the CES expo in January followed by Australia and Europe in February, will provide a single interface connecting IP-enabled surveillance cameras and other sensors made by Swann with home automation products from third parties.

When a camera detects a possible break in or a smoke detector sniffs a fire, the system sends instant smartphone notifications to customers and/or professional security services, who can then take action to call emergency services if needed.

Swann hopes to create a large hardware ecosystem by partnering with third parties that make non-security home automation devices. At launch, these will include Phillips Hue connected light bulbs, the Nest thermostat and Kwikset door locks. Swann itself is also expanding beyond its bread and butter of CCTV systems to manufacture new kinds of security sensors.

The service will be priced at about US$10 per month for a basic residential monitoring service covering up to four homes. Add-on monthly subscriptions include fire alarm monitoring for $3.50 and gunshot detection for $1.50. Swann also plans to sell an enterprise subscription covering up to 30 locations.

Swann saw embracing the Internet of Things as critical to keeping its business relevant in the future, Swann CTO Geoff Wanless said at a Sydney lunch hosted by Zuora, the vendor providing the billing and finance platform underpinning the subscription service.

If we did not act, someone else would be eating our lunch in two or three years time, said Wanless. In some ways we were forced to act.

Rather than merely peddle security equipment, Swann wants to sell peace of mind as a service, he said.

The smart home market is an increasingly crowded space with many big names in the mix. Apple announced HomeKit earlier this year as a major new feature of iOS 8. The software adds the ability to control smart light bulbs and a variety of other connected gadgets in the home.

Several startups help you create a smart home on the cheap using old smartphones. Tyler Lizenby/CNET

The smart home market is expanding. Dropcam-Nest, SmartThings,Wink and others have captured much of the early attention, but some plucky startups are taking a decidedly more DIY route.

Instead of presenting a polished finished product, these folks want you to use the outdated smartphone or tablet you already have at home (and probably forgot about long ago) to create a functional security camera, smart thermostat and more. Naturally, borrowing key features from an existing product is much less expensive, and the makeshift smart home devices that result even hold their own against some retail-ready devices.

Manything is a free app that turns your old iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch into a security camera. Once you download the app, you're just a few minutes away from having a decent live-streaming device, complete with motion sensing capabilities, email alerts, push notifications and an IFTTT channel. The Manything IFTTT channel makes it possible for you to create recipes for your new security camera and other IFTTT-compatible devices, like Belkin WeMo products and Philips Hue LEDs.

RicoRico completed a successful Kickstarter funding round and will start delivering units in 2015.

MindHelix RicoRico is a cuddly-looking device that happens to have motion, temperature, smoke, carbon monoxide and humidity sensors built into its unassuming puppy frame. You can also stick an old Android or iOS device inside Rico and it quickly transforms into a pretty solid home security system. In addition to Rico, MindHelix also has plans for Belkin WeMo-style smart plugs called Smart Sockets. The startup successfully completed a Kickstarter campaign for Rico and Smart Sockets in October and expects to send out its first production units in November 2015.
