If I were to install window motion sensors, glass break sensors, door sensors, and cameras, I’ve basically got my own home security system. But how would you go about mimicking the remote monitoring functions that a company such as ADT or SimpliSafe would do?
The type where if your alarm goes off, you get a phone call and are asked for your code word, and if you give the incorrect code word, the police are summoned or whatever.
If you are able to give your safe word to a person over the phone, which would mean that you have your phone, why do you need something else besides you to call the police?
All you need is a notification that something has been tripped.
Maybe because you’re being robbed?
If you don’t answer the phone call, then they send the police as well.
I think you’d be better with an automatic text to 911 rather than an automatic call.
That can be automated as well without an incoming call being involved, automate a notification, if not addressed in x amount of time, call or text police I suppose, but at that point if you’re face to face with your attacker without defense, you’ve already lost the game
Maybe this is a protection for a situation when you are at your home under the gun point, but they still let you answer the phone and order you to “act normally”. Sounds like something from a movie, but maybe this happens in real life too.
If it’s gotten that far, I don’t think automating a safe word will do you any good. You can text the police in a lot of places
