Randomized Responses for AI Deterrence (AID)
Alarm.com upgraded AI Deterrence (AID) by adding the option to have it randomly cycle through differently worded responses for increased realism. Previously, if AID was triggered several times in a row, the verbal responses for each trigger would sound very similar. With the new Randomized Responses option enabled, if AID is triggered multiple times, it randomly cycles through different versions of the message. As with before, AID rules can be configured as part of any recording rule in the Alarm.com website and mobile app. Alarm.com website > Video > Recording Rules > + Add New Rule > Video Analytics
