PIR + FLOODLIGHT MODULE | FINGERPRINT MODULE WITH SMART LOCK TECHNOLOGY | GATEWAY MODULE | WEATHER SENSOR MODULE
Sentry has an add-on option of a PIR (passive infrared sensor) and a floodlight LED module.
The PIR sensor only detects motion from heat sources like people and animals. PIR technology is much more accurate than typical motion-sensing cameras, it eliminates false motion alarms caused by moving cars, cloud shadows, and more.
The floodlight LED module includes a series of advanced light bulbs that help illuminate and identify the scene being recorded — this is especially useful for nighttime video and recording.
Sentry has an add-on option of a fingerprint authentication module. The fingerprint scanner works as a biometric access for the Aegis smart door lock. With this module, you can unlock your door with just a fingerprint rather than your phone.
The smart lock, designed by the BOSMA team, can be managed and calibrated in the mobile app.
Sentry includes an internal gateway module to work with peripheral sensors that don’t have WiFi connectivity themselves, so you can use them in the app.
Currently, our peripheral sensors include a door sensor, which detects and notifies you when a door or window in your home opens, and a simple button that, when pressed, sends you a notification and can be used in case of an emergency.
Forget your morning porch “weather check” in your robe. Sentry has an add-on option of a weather module to sense, measure and report the temperature and humidity right at your door.
You can view this information right from the home screen, which is updated automatically, whether you’re in bed and planning your day or trying to get the kids up and dressed.
Our team at BOSMA sought to design a video doorbell that looks and performs a little differently than other doorbells on the market. We started with a number of varying designs — from a rounded shape to a square shape — we even tried a few irregular shapes to fit our modular concept. To help choose our final design, we sent a survey to thousands of people and landed on the perfect rectangular shape. This shape made the most sense for us to break down advanced features into different modules, letting you choose which features you want to add on. To finalize our concept, we chose to make Sentry’s exterior a black brushed metal to give the modular doorbell an aesthetically pleasing look and feel.
We can’t thank you enough for checking out our project and helping us make Sentry a reality.
We know not everyone will be able to support us with a pledge, so even if you can’t give a dollar or pre-order Sentry, if you’re a supporter of Sentry, you can help us spread the word on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, Instagram and anywhere else you can think of!
There are always certain risks that can arise at any moment during a project like this. That being said, we’re confident in our ability to produce, and have taken all the necessary measures. We have a highly qualified team and internal manufacturing and fulfillment. We just need your help to bring everything to fruition. Don’t worry, we’re completely prepared to bring Sentry to your front porch, and we have the manpower to make it happen, but if anything comes up along the way, you’ll be the first to know.
