“Roku’s new home monitoring system provides peace of mind, while being easier than ever to set up, control, and monitor,” said Mark Robins, Vice President, Roku Smart Home. “We are proud to further extend Roku’s Smart Home lineup with affordable, simple ways to secure the safety of any home.”

The Roku Home Monitoring System SE offers guided videos and clear illustrations, so users can set up their system quickly and easily, with no tools required. With Home, Away, and Off modes and customizable monitoring rules through the system keypad or the Roku Smart Home mobile app, users can be in control wherever they are. Users can configure settings to be notified when sensors detect a door is opened or closed, or an alarm goes off, as well as arm or disarm the system from home with the system keypad or on the go from the mobile app.

Developed in partnership with Wyze labs, the five-piece Roku Home Monitoring System SE is the most affordable home monitoring solution, priced at $99, and includes:

• Two entry sensors: Get notified on your phone when a door or window is opened, closed, or left open.
• Motion sensor: Get notified – or automatically turn on a light – when motion is detected. Got a dog or cat? Ignore pets with an adjustable setting.
• Hub with built-in siren: Notify the house – and the neighborhood – if an emergency is detected.
• Keypad: Easily arm or disarm your home, change modes, or manually sound your alarm.

The system is easily expandable with additional entry sensors, motion sensors, and keypads.

Users have the option to self-monitor their homes for free or subscribe to affordable 24/7 professional monitoring, powered by Noonlight, a leader in smart professional monitoring. Roku Smart Home Professional Monitoring offers immediate response from live U.S.-based agents when an alarm is triggered, and subscribers can request emergency assistance with one tap in the Roku Smart Home mobile app or on the keypad. Professional Monitoring is available for $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year, and subscribers who choose annual billing receive 50% off their first year.

Additional Roku Smart Home products new to the portfolio include an advanced Roku Smart Light Strip+ SE that allows users to show up to 16 different colors at once and a Roku Solar Panel that powers the wire-free Roku Outdoor Camera SE.
