Philips has officially stepped into the smart door sector, disrupting the traditional “door + smart lock” model with its proprietary full-stack hardware and software approach.
Recently, Philips unveiled its latest smart door lineup, featuring the Philips Smart Door 701, 601, and 501. By independently developing both software and hardware, Philips is tackling key industry pain points and redefining smart home security.
AI-Powered Security with SDO Smart System
At the heart of Philips’ smart doors is the self-developed SDO Smart System which integrates AI algorithms and IoT technology. This enables seamless intelligent unlocking, advanced security monitoring, smart home integration, and automatic sensing, providing a next-level smart home entrance experience.
Equipped with eight unlocking methods, including 3D structured light facial recognition, palm vein recognition, and fingerprint scanning, Philips Smart Door ensures millisecond-level accuracy for both residents and visitors, combining convenience with unparalleled security.
Enhanced AI Vision and Real-Time Security Monitoring
With cutting-edge AI vision and sensing technology, Philips Smart Door provides round-the-clock security surveillance. Powered by 24GHz precision radar and AI motion detection, the system continuously monitors doorfront activity and automatically alerts homeowners to anomalies.
A 165° ultra-wide-angle, 5MP HD security camera captures real-time footage in crystal clarity, while infrared night vision ensures visibility even in low-light conditions, keeping homes secure at all times.
User-Centric Safety Features
Beyond security, Philips Smart Door prioritizes user safety and convenience. The AI visual detection module enables dual-layer anti-pinch protection and emergency stop functionality. If an obstacle or person is detected in the doorframe while closing, the system automatically halts movement, preventing accidental injuries.
Industry-Leading Security Standards
Philips Smart Door is built with “Blue Shield” security technology, meeting China’s highest Grade-4 anti-theft standards. The door features a 5mm aerospace aluminum panel, 10cm thick door leaf, and over 100kg reinforced door structure.
Additional security elements include:
– Seamless hinge design and hidden weld points for tamper-proof protection
– Full-automatic precision steel lock body with super C-level lock core
– No visible pry points, creating a solid home security fortress
A Strategic Move Towards Smart Home Security
Philips’ expansion into the smart door sector aligns with a broader strategic vision. The smart door business, closely tied to its smart lock division, is operated under Shenzhen Konis, the authorized partner behind Philips’ smart home security ecosystem.
Moreover, as the demand for comprehensive smart home security solutions rises, leading brands such as Haier and Aqara have also entered the space, solidifying smart doors as the next big frontier in smart home technology.
Philips’ entry not only brings product innovation but also disrupts traditional industry models, shifting competition from individual product makers to ecosystem builders. In the race to dominate the smart home entryway, the key to success lies in who can establish the most powerful and open smart home ecosystem.
