One question I frequently receive from Bardi camera users is how to talk from their phones to the camera. As a CCTV technician, I’ve tried almost every type of camera, so I can quickly guide them. Bardi is a smart camera, and some models have a two-way talk feature for communication between the user’s phone and the camera. The voice output from the camera matches what’s being spoken from the phone.
This article I wrote will explain in full how to use the two-way talk feature on the Bardi camera.
Greet People Around Your Bardi Camera From Your Phone
“Who is in front of my yard? Please move away immediately!”
Above is an example of what you can say from your phone to the installed Bardi camera. This feature is called two-way speaking. Apart from giving warnings to unknown people, you can also use this feature to start a conversation, for example with your child who is at home while you are at work, or give orders to your household assistant.
Nearly all Bardi indoor camera models feature two-way talk.
