U-Green Home Agent gives the home server something useful to say.
By Sonja Kapoor, your home server has the footage.
Finding the bit you need is another job.
The visitor wore a blue jacket, the dog wandered out of the home office sometime after lunch,
and a delivery arrived while you were in a meeting.
Plenty of data, several very ordinary questions.
U.Gree Home Agent H.A. 100 combines Nause storage, local camera AI, and
and smart home control in one appliance.
For a technically minded household,
the attraction ice getting useful answers out of the information the home already produces,
with storage and analysis running on hardware under your own roof.
Make the camera useful beyond its live feed.
Imagine a three-bedroom townhouse with a dedicated home office and a camera near the entryway.
A CINCARE ID 500 Pro can pan, tilt and follow people or pets ask thee move through the room.
That suits a dog that rarely stays where you last saw it,
and an entrance that sees people coming and going throughout the day.
Uliya gives that camera a conversational use.
Ask whether your pet is in a room covered by a sin-care camera,
and the assistant can answer from the view.
You can get back to the document on your main monitor
without turning a second screen into a permanent camera dashboard.
For recorded activity, AI event summary in the Ugreen Nause app describes the key events.
It is useful after a long work session.
Read what happened around the house,
then open the clips that deserve a closer look. The recording becomes something you can scan before you
commit to watching it. A.I. keyword search solves the more specific problem of finding a clip from
R-a-membered detail. Enter, Blue Jacket, in the app to look for matching footage. A visual clue you can
describe becomes the route into the archive, even when the time stamp has escaped you. Put local compute to
work on local footage. The privacy argument is straightforward when the subject is your family living room.
performs camera analysis locally and stores recordings on drives UOWN.
You can use AI to make that footage easier to understand while keeping the analysis and video archive at home.
Local storage also avoids a recurring cloud storage subscription.
Ugo's Pro put surveillance center alongside file storage, backups and smart home controls.
For someone who would otherwise assemble separate services for those jobs,
the integration is a concrete part of the buying decision.
The same system can hold your photo archive, look after camera recordings and take a spoken request to turn on a compatible office light.
HA 116 gigabytes of memory supports that combination of household services.
It's 2.5GBE network connection gives a compatible network more bandwidth for backup sand video transfers than a gigabit link,
while its storage base provides separate space for NAS files and surveillance recordings.
Those resources have an everyday job, even if you never write a line of AI code.
Let the home interrupt you for a reason.
With a sin care camera watching the entrance, package detection can flag a delivery while you work.
Add a smart speaker for Ullia in the home office and IT can announce the event there.
That is a useful interruption between calls, especially when the phone you would normally check is buried under papers.
The speaker also brings voice control into that room.
Ask for a compatible light or curtain to change.
while you stay at the desk. For households ready to create more involved routines,
HA100 Pro adds contextual understanding and automation rules created by voice. A place for the clips
you want to keep. Some camera moments are worth revisiting for happier reasons. The dog greeting the
family at the door or everyone laughing over a birthday cake can be easy to miss with a phone.
Eye highlights turn selected camera moments into short videos, doing some of the work of finding
and assembling memories from footage that would otherwise sit in the archive. When you want to build
beyond the existing features, developers with a specific household AI project can look further up
the range to master agent MA 100. Its invidia Jetson Thor T5,000 is rated for up to 2070 T-flops at sparse
FP4 precision for demanding local models. The king of agents, idea is about coordinating goals,
local data and device capabilities across multiple steps, with packages or skills providing routes
to extend the system. A developer might want to build a custom household event report or connect
A-family scheduled to selected device actions. Those are development possibilities whose software
and integrations still need to be built. At $9,99 Super Early Bird pricing, M-A-100 makes sense
when that work is the point of the purchase, with 4-8 terabytes hard drives included for deposit customers
who complete their purchase, HA100 and HA100 Pro cover the more familiar job of using an integrated
home system. Ordering and timing, HA100's super early bird price is $799, versus a regular Kickstarter
price of $959 and a $1,599 MSRP, with 1 ID 500 Pro included as a complementary gift for deposit
customers who complete their purchase. Drives, cameras and other accessories are separate purchases.
U-Green says its currently announced features have no additional service fee.
A $50 deposit through October 26, 2026, on the U-Green-IOT official store unlocks the secret reward link for the HA-100 offer.
When Kickstarter opens on November 17th, use that link in the same email address to select a reward and complete the pledge.
The deposit reserves the offer and THE final purchase takes place through the campaign.
Deposit refunds can bear requested before the campaign ends.
