Samsung announced new smart cameras today. These cameras can spot packages delivered to your doorstep. The company says this helps homeowners know when a package arrives. It also helps prevent theft.

The cameras use special technology. They look for boxes and envelopes left near your door. The system learns what packages look like over time. It gets smarter the more it sees. If a package is detected, the camera sends an alert.
You get a notification on your phone. You can see a picture of the package right away. This happens moments after delivery. You don’t have to keep checking your phone or door. The camera does the watching for you.
This feature works with Samsung’s existing security systems. It fits into their SmartThings platform. You can use it with other smart home devices too. For example, you might connect it to a smart lock or lights.
The cameras work day and night. They use clear video quality. Rain or shine doesn’t affect their ability to spot packages. Samsung wants to make home security easier. Knowing about deliveries quickly is part of that.
Porch theft is a big problem for many people. Samsung hopes this tool helps. It gives people more control. They can act fast if a package goes missing. Or just bring the package inside sooner.
