home monitoring

Household security observation

Home monitoring is the use of technology to track conditions inside a residence—security cameras, motion sensors, smart doorbells, or systems that detect smoke, water leaks, or temperature changes.

The term also covers medical monitoring for elderly or ill family members living at home: Her father wears a device for remote home monitoring of his heart.

Most systems now connect to smartphones, allowing homeowners to check feeds or receive alerts from anywhere.
