SAN FRANCISCO, June 26 ― Samsung's SmartThings product line is expanding with a new smart cam, plug, and bulb.

Samsung announced Monday that its SmartThings smart home device lineup has gained three new members: the SmartThings Cam, Wifi Smart Plug, and Smart Bulb.

SmartThings Cam

Samsung's new connected Cam brings users a full HD, wide-angle video feed directly to their smartphones so that they can monitor their homes while they're away. The device senses motion and has the ability to distinguish that made by humans from that made by pets or other moving objects like passing cars. Particular areas ― like nurseries, for example ― can be set to be under extra close surveillance; for these activity zones, owners will be sent notifications if any movement is detected.

The SmartThings Cam retails for US$89.99 (RM371.54).

SmartThings Wifi Smart Plug

SmartThings Smart Bulb

This smart bulb can be turned on, off, and dimmed using a voice assistant. Furthermore, users can set the lights to adjust at particular times based on their personal schedules.
