Less intrusive home security systems with the help of advance sensors and anomaly recognition
Background
In a world where increasing amounts of our personal data are being collected, privacy is more crucial than ever...
At the same time, we seek a stronger sense of security, especially in the place we value most — our home.
Problem statement
How might we create a home security system that ensures privacy while delivering a strong sense of safety, using advanced sensors and AI technology in a none intrusive way?

Environmental hazards
Detects smoke, leaks, and unsafe changes in the home.
Veya combines three products into a layered safety system that responds progressively to risk. Each step adds more context only when necessary, creating a more deliberate and privacy-conscious approach to protection.
01 Veya Mini
Early detection through non-intrusive ambient sensing.
02 Veya Wave
Deeper awareness through radar-based motion analysis.
03 Veya Sight
Final confirmation through intentional visual verification.
Veya Mini uses discreet ambient sensors to detect unusual activity around entry points. It adds an early layer of protection without relying on cameras, helping preserve privacy while keeping the home aware.
Veya
Veya Wave uses short-range radar to detect movement and changes in physical activity. It adds a deeper layer of awareness without relying on intrusive visual monitoring.
Veya Sight provides visual verification when an event needs a higher level of confirmation. It activates only when necessary, adding clarity while keeping privacy in balance.
Veya is built to live quietly within the home, integrating into familiar spaces with minimal visual disruption. Its presence supports safety without compromising the warmth and comfort of the environment.
