Artificial intelligence (AI) seems to be making a name for itself everywhere we look today. From the hospitality industry to manufacturing and beyond, it learns, analyzes, and responds.  

One of the most profound impacts it's having on our lives is in home security. It learns as it watches, understanding the difference between the ordinary events of our days and ones that may constitute an emergency. Is it an emergency when your new puppy starts chewing up the couch? That depends on your outlook. Either way, you'll receive an alert on your smartphone and a video clip, enabling you to act appropriately.

What about when your toddler heads to the pool as the babysitter makes lunch in your Thousand Oaks, CA, home? That is an emergency that your smart security system will warn you about. 

As you can see, today's home security systems are as much about protecting your home and family from internal mishaps as they are about securing it from strangers. Here, we'll explore AI's role in this advanced protection strategy.
