Once the memory card is full, the oldest videos will be recorded over first, hence the need for additional SD cards. The Welcome comes with an 8GB, class-10 micro SD card, but can handle cards with up to 32 GB of storage.

During my testing, the camera was turned on in an empty room with the TV on, and in just 6 minutes, the Welcome had detected eight "unknown faces." Sure enough, after entering the names of the actors in HBO's "The Newsroom," I found that the Welcome correctly identified each of these people repeatedly. The Welcome could even detect faces of actors on the screen of a nearby television set. Be careful not to place the Welcome in a spot that will be exposed to direct sunlight, either through a window or when the front door opens. Keep in mind that the Welcome cannot recognize faces when the sun is glaring into the lens from behind the subject. I was pleased to see the facial-recognition feature offered in a security camera at this price, and with such accuracy. Over a period of a few days, the Welcome recognized previously identified faces, even if the people were wearing hats, if part of their faces were obstructed or if they were not completely facing the camera. While this is a cool feature, it took time to grow on me, because I was getting constant chirping alerts warning me of the presence of people who were not actually trying to rob me.Įventually, though, I decided that this feature truly was helpful.

To test this, I created three profiles, two on Android smartphones and one on an iPhone. There is no limit to how many profiles can be created per camera, and each person's preferences can easily be changed at any time from the mobile app or website. Each person can choose from a number of features for the camera, such as always recording, motion-detection only, or not recording at all while that particular user is in the house. The Welcome can be controlled with any number of iOS or Android devices, and everyone in your home (or even outside it) can have a user profile. Netatmo Welcome Features: Lots of Profiles, Oversensitive Motion Detection They'll alert the Welcome when a door, window or even a mailbox is opened or closed, and they work both inside and outdoors, including areas with high sun, rain, or wind exposure. For those who have more than one entrance to their homes, or would like to keep an eye on a window as well as the front door, Netatmo engineers are working on Welcome Tags, battery-operated wireless sensors that detect motion and vibration.
