Peter Besen, CEO of Blink, stated on the same report, "At Blink, we've created a core 'Seecurity' philosophy, meaning that the ability to see, and therefore know, exactly what is happening at home from anywhere at any time is vital to achieving true home security and peace of mind." He also stated that these offerings will help the consumers need for affordable, high quality home security to monitor their homes while they are away.

The new products under the "Seecurity" brand include:

• 4G Cellular Sync Module with battery backup for data & video

According to a report by The Verge, Blink's service plans, the $10 and $20 plans, will support 10 cameras which can still be used without a subscription plan, although there is a fee if you want to incorporate them with the new devices.
