Video surveillance is perfect if you want to protect your home, and if you're looking for a surveillance camera but you don't want to deal with wires, you might be interested in today's device.

Simplicam comes from Arcsoft, and it's a WiFi surveillance camera that connects to cloud-based service called Closeil. According to its creators, this camera offers face tracking feature that will activate the detection system only if there's another person in your house, and it won't be triggered by accident by a pet. Arcsoft plans to improve the face tracking feature so that the camera can switch off automatically if it detects the user. Regarding the setup, users have to push the button on the back and get a phone password as a QR code and they are good to go.

Simplicam is priced at $149.99, and Closeil cloud services offer free live view, motion and sound alerts over the browser or mobile application. There are also three paid recording plans that offer you 1 day recording, 11 day recording and 21 day recording for $49/year or $5/month, $139/year or $14/month and $229/year or $23/month, respectively.
