For homeowners of luxury villas, an alarm system is a regular thing. You turn the alarm system off when you enter. And when you leave, you turn the system back on. In your home, you have cameras with motion detectors and all windows and doors are equipped with ignition locks. If there is a break-in, you will receive a notification, and depending on the alarm centre, someone will come and take a look. After three false alarms from a spider walking across the lens, you are no longer high on the priority list.
Artificial Intelligence as an alarm system, how does it work?
Strangely enough, many break-ins take place when the residents are at home. The family is enjoying a wonderful afternoon around the pool at the back of the villa. While they are laughing, someone slips in at the front of the villa. The alarm system is off, so it does not detect anything. You only notice it when your car keys have disappeared. Or worse.
The AI powered alarm system of the future
The Synaedge alarm system takes your existing alarm system to the next level. The AI system reads all camera feeds and analyses the situation at lightning speed. In case of a serious alarm, camera recordings of the incident are shared with a local 24-hour manned alarm centre. They can then take immediate action.
Synaedge uses AI to scan all of your home’s residents, allowing you to walk around your home without any problems while the system is on. The security team draws up a camera plan that specifies which cameras should always be on, such as in the garage or at the safe. You can ‘tag’ valuable items so that any unintended movement is signalled.
You can also open doors with facial recognition, a fingerprint or a QR code (great for rental properties). Or open the garage door automatically when your car and license plate are recognised. If your estate is on the waterfront, the sea is difficult to control with its constant movement. Only when someone sets foot on land can a camera detect a person. But then they are already at a fence.

Radar detection
With Synaedge, you can install a radar around your house that, for example, monitors the access to your waterfront property from the sea. If the boat is not identified as yours and someone sails into your bay and gets too close to shore, a camera is activated, or the AI system launches a drone with a camera. These images are sent directly to the alarm centre, which can take action.
Personal safety
Most accidents happen at home. Imagine you fall or suddenly become unconscious. The AI system recognizes you as a resident and can trigger an alarm if you remain motionless on the floor. If the camera detects someone falling or collapsing, the security command center or personal security team will be informed and given access to the video stream to check what has happened.
Depending on the camera model, the command centre can speak to the person lying down and ask if everything is alright. If there is no response, emergency services will be contacted right away. Additionally, the system can detect potentially dangerous situations, such as the presence of weapons, and trigger an alarm instantly.
Maintenance of your villa
Not everyone has a caretaker living at their house. The AI concierge system can use cameras to detect smoke and fire significantly earlier than conventional smoke detectors. The SceneChange feature captures even the most minor changes, up to large-scale events. It also identifies spilt coffee, leaks, and large amounts of water. In the garden, for example, it can detect fallen branches after storms.
Event-based 24/7 real-time monitoring
The comprehensive, AI privacy-oriented surveillance ensures maximum privacy and stands out from conventional video surveillance systems.
Conventional real-time monitoring only works if a person constantly monitors the property. Nobody likes that for privacy reasons.
In contrast, Synaedge’s AI video surveillance functions like an invisible personal security team, providing discreet, comprehensive protection without constant human observation of residents.
Imagine relying on a traditional alarm system that you have to activate manually. If you’re deep asleep and someone breaks in, you won’t be able to manage the alarm or receive notifications yourself. With AI, however, events are continuously monitored, ensuring maximum safety and security.
AI-powered video analysis for maximum privacy
The benefits 24/7 real-time monitoring using AI-powered video analysis
- No permanent monitoring by individuals
- The AI video analysis continuously analyzes the camera video streams based on predefined training data and scenarios. As soon as the AI video analysis detects an emergency situation (e.g., burglary, fire, weapons), an alarm message is generated.
- Harmless behavior is ignored by the software and cannot be viewed by security personnel or operators.
- The software records video material only when security-relevant events are detected. (Permanent recording is also possible if desired, but without access for security personnel unless explicitly requested.)
Notification and response options by AI
The customer can decide who should be notified in the event of an incident and who should have access to the video stream (from 10 seconds before the event and during the event itself). This could be the customer, their security personnel, or the security command centre.
Only when a security-relevant event is detected by the AI will the security command center be alerted and only then will it receive access to the video stream. Thus, permanent monitoring by the security command centre is excluded.
Advantages human security command center
In a critical incident, the nearby security command centre can react immediately by notifying security forces or activating emergency protocols to minimise damage and ensure compliance with applicable security standards.
Security cameras with two-way communication allow us to speak with individuals on-site (e.g., you or intruders) and take calming or instructive actions as needed.
The 24/7 security command center can be flexibly booked as needed, either as a complete surveillance solution or to support an existing team.
Data protection and anonymization
We offer anonymization, meaning that individuals or license plates are blurred. This ensures sensitive information remains protected while the surveillance cameras are in use, further safeguarding the privacy of those affected.
