Before the age of electric video doorbell
Before the invention of electric video doorbells, there were mechanical doorbells and even before those, the good old-fashioned knock-on-the-door came in handy. The invention of doorbells has undoubtedly added quite a rendition to our daily lives. Through the ages, these devices have undergone multiple form transitions to become the doorbells with video we know today.
In present times, we have video doorbells that not only notify the owner of a visitor outside through a ring, but also are able to capture a live footage of what is outside and project it directly to your mobile phone. Moreover, you do not even have to ring most of these video doorbells – they come with built-in motion detector sensors, which detect a movement outside your door and notify you. These doorbells with camera are “smarter” than the traditional electric doorbells and are aptly called; you guessed it, ‘smart video doorbells’.
Doorbells of the new age; smart video doorbells.
Smart doorbells are a relatively new technology that brings about an array of different collections of interposed technologies. For example, you can find ‘video doorbells‘ or ‘doorbells with cameras‘ which are, as the names imply, essentially simple doorbells with camera. These devices are able to project a live video feed of whoever is on the door.
Similarly, you can also find a doorbell with intercom, which have either a one-way or a two-way audio channel allowing you to communicate with whoever is outside your door. Integration of doorbells with wireless technologies have also enabled the creation of what we know as “wireless doorbells”. These devices connect to a buzzer through radio connectivity instead of a wire. The added benefit of radio communication integration is that these wireless doorbells can also connect to your mobile phone through the same wireless frequency and project a live-stream of the outside view.
How does a smart wireless doorbell work?
A video doorbell is quite simply a doorbell with camera and sometimes an audio transmission channel as well. These wireless doorbells are an excellent tool for both notifications and security. They give you an overview of the front of your house through a live-feed from the video doorbell camera. You can also listen to, and talk back to anyone outside the door through a doorbell with intercom. But how do these devices transmit all this information back and forth so effortlessly?
Most doorbells with video features are wireless, and thus have the capability to connect to the internet through either a GSM connection, or Wi-Fi. An active internet connection through either of these measures helps you to connect to your device and control it with just a few clicks. This mobile application is usually free to install and has multiple features to configure your security the way you want to. This provides you with the ease of a personalized security for your property. The adjustable features include the ring, the volume, and additional lighting features if the doorbell supports it.

Benefits of choosing a wireless doorbell with video include:
- A hassle free connection set-up. Most of these devices are wireless doorbells and they have the advantage of being extremely simple when it comes to set them up. They are plug-and-play right out of the box and you just need to connect them to your home Wi-Fi and mount them outside.
- Live video stream of your front door. Most of these wireless doorbells have cameras built in to their bodies. Mounting a doorbell with video camera outside your front door provides you with a live video feed of whoever is at your door, right to your mobile screen!
- Doorbells with intercom. Most of these wireless doorbells also feature a 2-way audio communication channel that allows you to talk to the person standing outside your door. Imagine not having to get up from your couch and still being able to watch and talk to the person at your door.
- Smart integration. Wireless doorbells with video and intercom features are smart not only because they provide you with an audio and video stream. They are also able to integrate and function effortlessly with most of your smart devices through the same radio communication.
- Built-in sensors. Wireless doorbells have multiple built-in sensors that allow for a greater functionality. For example, a motion sensor comes with many of the wireless doorbells that detects movement outside your door and buzzes the alarm without the need for the push of a button.
- Added security. A very important advantage of a wireless video doorbell is that they can connect to the security system in your house as an added module. They detect movement outside your house and ring the alarm to notify you of a possible breach. They can also connect to various other detectors installed in your house, such as the fire detectors and leak detectors. Upon stimulation input from these sensors, the alarm can notify you of a potentially hazardous situation.
These are just some of the benefits of installing smart wireless doorbells in your house rather than the traditional doorbells. There are, thus, several pros to installing a wireless doorbell as they have the potential for ever-increasing possibilities. A traditional doorbell on the other hand simply cannot do the same job in such an effective manner.
A simple ring is undoubtedly effective when it comes to notifying the owner, however, it can become obsolete when you realize that a doorbell can be so much more than that.
The future for video doorbell

Our routines are more rapidly being shaped by technology and the ones who do not catch up do so at the risk of being left behind.
