Reolink has become the first security camera manufacturer to work with home assistant certification for its Wi-Fi Home Security cameras. This means that the camera of the Rolink – not with its 4G model – now users can process the video feed, AI alert and device control to increase users’ home networks to increase privacy.
Home Assistant is a free and open-source smart home software platform managed by the Open Home Foundation. It is hugged by many DIY smart home enthusiasts, and it can run on a lot of different hardware, with raspberry pie and ARM processors to 64-bit X86 architecture usually found in mini PCs. It can also serve as a virtual machine on a laptop or desktop that is running Macos or window.
We are thrilled to welcome the first cameras in the ‘Home Assistant Program with Home Assistant Program’ through Rollink.

In addition to being free, at least half of the home assistant’s appeal is that it operates completely locally, which means that there is no dependence on the cloud. In addition to executing the command more rapidly, users have more privacy as data does not need to leave the home network.
Rolink cameras working under Home Assistant can fully process their video feed, AI alert and device control locally. This will save customers’ money by eliminating the need to pay membership for cloud services or storage. Working under a home assistant also promises to increase the privacy of the rolin camera users, which eliminates concerns about the third-party access or any weaknesses outside the rolink customer’s control.
Many, but not all, Rollink Safety cameras have onboard storage; But every model can collect video recording on network-enhanced devices.

Including rolling cameras in a home assistant ecosystem also comes with other benefits. The users will be able to connect their home assistant-compatible smart home devices simultaneously, so that one action on one can trigger an event on others. For example, you can turn your smart porch light when someone plays your rolin video doorbell.
