Ring Door Bell Support, Motion detection etc

Ismo Korhonen shared this idea ago

Under Consideration

Ring Door Bell has "Home Security Company" partners I hope Zipato will have support to it as well.

I have 2 pcs of RIng Door Bells at my front & back doors.

I like the motion detection recording to cloud by Ring Door Bell.

But I would like to do something more with Zipato, when motion is detected at door or when the door bell is pressed.

@Ismo: Are you satisfied with Ring Door? In some statements one can read that there is a delay in sending the ring tone?

99% of door rings the delay is so short that does not matter at all. But it has happened for me as well that there has been small delay. Ring door bells has been my best purhase as IOT for long time, which works without any problems.

I use the Ring too, and I have the opposite problem, maybe 1% of the rings are within acceptable delay, 99% is between 30-60 seconds(!) late...

Ismo,

As fas as I know, ring.com is completely proprietary. I doubt Zipato will be granted low level access to the camera and the door button in Ring.

Event can be triggered via the Ring cloud services using IFTTT, which in tun can trigger Zipato events.

IMO, connecting systems like this via, via and via, is less secure and prone to fail. They will also lag.

Unfortunately, serious and local alternatives, where Zipato can interact directly with the hardware, is quite costly. Axis has just released an (expensive) device which can be used for this purpose:

For me that is also fine, but where is Zipato IFTTT channel, I cannot find it... I am using IFTTT for example to Tado.
