Branto Orb is a new 360 Degree rotatable and pan-able camera which probably apt to be kept on the roof to look around for you. This alone is a great feature for a security camera. This indigogo project does not stop at that.
Unlike Canary, they are planning to allow two way communication. Both Audio and video. No, they do not have an inbuilt screen. But they support audio video streaming protocol to channel it to Airplay ready or Miracast capable devices to stream it up to a TV or audio system.
They also add the capability for this device to send IR signals so that it can control devices in the room. Normally I do not like devices to club diverse features into one since this kills the flexibility big time. This is one exception. Since enabling the dump devices like old TVs and A/Cs which do not have WiFi and Automatable capabilities is a big plus which goes OK with the camera. If you have a security camera in a room where A/C is there or TV is there, or some other device working only with IR only remote control, this brings in the automation to them. And chances are for some time, this will be the case in many countries.
