Security systems today are much more advanced than traditional CCTV cameras. Surveillance cameras today are not only Wi-Fi-enabled but also come with features like motion sensing, intelligent mode, and two-way talk feature.
Our other articles talk about various aspects of a good surveillance system in detail. Today, we will focus on the 2 way audio cameras and their significance for your home security system. Let’s get started.
What is two-way audio?
People often confuse two-way audio cameras with traditional intercom systems. Two-way audio cameras allow users to communicate back and forth (speak and listen) directly through HD video cameras.
A two way audio camera has an excellent microphone and a good speaker. Both the microphone and speaker are in-built. These cameras are often Wi-Fi enabled and come with a reliable power source.
It is highly suggested by security experts to look for the two way audio feature in all your security cameras. Wondering why?
A two way audio camera comes with many benefits. Let’s explore them in detail.
Benefits of a two-way camera
A two way audio camera can add an extra layer of security. Here’s how.
Communicate with your children

Instruct delivery person
If your outdoor security camera has the two-way talk feature, you can use the same to instruct a delivery person to place your order safely. In case you are not home, you can ask the delivery person to hand over your parcel to the next-door neighbour or keep it near your home in a secured space.
Thwart intruders
A two way audio camera can also be used to scare away any uninvited suspicious strangers. A loud alarming sound from the camera is sure to scare any intruder away from your home, keeping it safe. You can also send the recorded version of the feed to the concerned authorities for legal intervention.
The two-way talk feature ideally should be present in all indoor cameras. Airtel Xsafe indoor security cameras are equipped with a two-way talk feature.
