In the United States, the market for smart doorbells is growing, and home safety and non-contact communication are becoming increasingly important. However, existing smart doorbells are so passive that delivers or intruders are hard to get a definite reaction. ViBO is an agent who reacts first when a person is detected and presents action. ViBO interacts with users as a life-like device. It has its transparent display above its lens, and does face-tracking and eye-contact on that interface by face detection. Furthermore, with the voice AI assistant, the user can communicate with ViBO in a natural way. Via ViBO’s mobile application, the residents can be linked to ViBO on the front door and check the situation in front of the front door, like connecting video call, watching real-time video or checking deliveries.
