Blink setup is easy, as the cameras can either stand on their own or be mounted by way of their included brackets. Each camera features an adjustable sensitivity motion sensor, low-light illuminator, built-in microphone, temperature sensor, and free cloud storage, which combine to give users real-time visibility into just about every area of your home.
Promising a “comprehensive, customizable, and user-friendly solution for home security,” the Blink app lets users see their home or workplace from anywhere in the world by way of the live HD video feed and recorded video clips anytime motion is detected. And because there are no monthly fees to keeping Blink running, customers only have to buy the unit once (systems start a $99 and go up to $349 for a five camera-unit) and enjoy the payoff that is peace of mind.
“We’re extremely proud of Blink, and the community’s response to it,” says Don Shulsinger, VP of Sales and Marketing for parent company Immedia Semiconductor. “After a successful crowdfunding campaign, we have 50,000 units in the market and 4.5 stars on Amazon. With 50 percent of our customers purchasing three and five-camera systems, and existing users adding more cameras to their systems daily, the data clearly shows just how widespread the need is to see throughout the home. Our mission is to make it easy and affordable for consumers to monitor every room in their home or office.”
