Your Philips Hue camera just got an AI-powered upgrade that will scare off burglars with an automatic 80dB siren

Philips Hue has released a new app update that can trigger your home security camera's 80dB alarm automatically when it detects movement, rather than requiring you to start it manually when you receive a notification. The system can even differentiate between animals, people, parcels, and vehicles, so it won't be set off by your pet taking a stroll.

As smart lighting site HueBlog explains, the update is available now for Android and iOS, though the AI recognition feature is only available if you have a paid-for Philips Hue Secure Plan (starting at $39.99 / £34.99 per year for one camera).
