Need at least the camera, if not that plus a microphone and speakers, not the lock or bell.
Libre Software (Obviously) + End-to-End Encryption
Small and easy to hide, so the camera isn’t stolen, attacked or bypassed.
You want Reolink + Frigate
Yes, I have this too. Works fine.
Cameras seem too big and obvious, easy to attack.
Maybe don’t subject people to such dystopian surveillance
It’s MY house. I’m recording invaders. No one is inviting you here.
I use Eufy doorbells, locks, and cameras. I realize they are a Chinese company, but that is almost unavoidable until the US gets back to actually manufacturing tech.
The reason I like Eufy is the local storage and no required subscription fees.
Isn’t this the company that not only got busted for uploading continuous footage but got caught publicly exposing that footage to anyone with VLC?
I if I am remembering correctly you should throw away the device immediately
I use eufy as well. The only issue they recently had was that thumbnails were stored in their cloud if you chose to enable them on notifications. If you just select the text option, none of the footage is stored online and everything is local.
Harder for China than the US to attack in the US.
Here’s a very similar question I asked here a few months ago: “Privacy respecting ring doorbell” https://lemm.ee/post/8165932
Reolink has a local encrypted video doorbell.
You don’t need a doorbell camera, get a regular camera instead.
You need an app which will receive events from a doorbell via a server to receive data to interface with the app. Both of those things need to be owned and operated by someone to be approved for use on the app store. That’s why a custom open source of doorbell as you envision it doesn’t exist and never will.
Is this a AI repost from reddit bot?
Wow, that’s something new.
Or just someone copy pasting their old comments
No lol,i just copied solution of other person,i just thought for myself that his solution make sense.
I guess, but not all app stores have the same restrictions… And there are open source ways of doing this, software anyway, maybe not with hardware.
How did you happen to find that?
Autistic absolute recall.
Simple Google search of the original question, because I want to do the same thing, or at least self host a home security system.
I agree mostly except the app. Don’t pretent Home Assistant doesn’t have an app.
That won’t record attackers.
It might contribute in some small aesthetic way to deterring them, which seems a much better ambition.
