Alongside the new security cameras, Swann has launched Swann Security, a "full integrated ecosystem that encompasses both wired and wireless security solutions", according to the company.
This means Swann devices are now controllable via single app, which is packed with features like video analytics, and smart alerts when your camera's motion sensors are triggered.
