Glass Window Security

Filed in archive Gadgets on November 4, 2007

If your home is similar to many other wired homes, you will have plenty of glass windows for ventilation and/or for letting the outside world into your home. With so much glass a home like this can have its own security issues. Enter the professional-grade security device that just listens for glass breaking.

This device made by HAI, listens for glass breaking. You already have windows and doors covered by a security system that detects when a door or a window is opened. But what about if a glass window is broken, the security strips do not work. Enter the HAI device which detects glass breaking.

From a radius of 20 feet this device is sensitive to the sound of a glass window 1ft or 2ft square or larger being broken. Installation is simple but it does need communication through a wireless/wifi system to the network.

Priced at just US$109 it is a very worthwhile investment to further improve the security of your home.
