Do you want a home security system but you don't want to be bothered by monthly fees, cameras invading your privacy, or typing in passcodes every time you enter or leave your home? Aura is the security system for you! Aura uses wireless signals that are invisible to the human eye to monitor motion, and will send a notification to your smartphone when there is unexpected movement. Aura is very easy to set up. You plug in the hub on one side of your home, then connect the sensor into an electrical outlet on the other side of the house. The hub and sensor work together to read the radio waves (such as wifi) in the air and can detect disturbances in the force. (It won't make you a Jedi). Using the Aura app on your smartphone, the system will detect when you come and go and automatically arm and disarm depending on if you are home or not. If disturbance in the signals happen while you are away from home, Aura will notify your smartphone! 

Aura is a bit expensive and it does not connect to outside agencies such emergency services such as other home security systems, and at $499, it isn't exactly "cheap" either. It is also best utilized in small homes. However, it is a less intrusive and a unique way to provide security for your home. Learn more at their website www.aurahome.com
