The well -known Faces feature can be integrated into the broader ALEXA+Greetings System, which will allow specific greetings when the camera recognizes a particular person. This feature converts the voice assistant into a smart employee, allowing him to interact with visitors, manage the deliveries and identify the purpose of visits to inform users.
Another AI characteristic, search party, helps find lost pets with networking cameras.
