“We’re giving homeowners a smarter and more reliable way to protect their home,” said Grant Chen, Vice President of EZVIZ. “With the Y3000FVP Plus, EZVIZ leverages the most cutting-edge technology to protect what matters most.”
Marking its hot debut in the Middle East, EZVIZ has captured the locally upscaling demand for elegant, intelligent home solutions, while witnessing the lack of a hassle-free user experience. Combining product quality with exceptional customer support, EZVIZ has developed its network of professional installers and related services, so the overall user journey can go as smoothly as possible from purchase, installation, and after-sales care.
At the heart of the Y3000FVP Plus are its two industry-leading unlocking methods. This smart lock uses localized 3D data processing to guarantee only live, real-time faces are detected, even adapting to various lighting conditions. It reliably identifies individuals between 1.2m and 2m, unaffected by hairstyle, makeup, or glasses. For added convenience, especially in situations where users might be wearing a mask or carrying items, palm vein recognition provides a secure, forgery-resistant alternative. Both methods are powered by a 12nm AI chip and dual-core CPU, ensuring swift, accurate recognition. Furthermore, there are multiple user-friendly access options, from fingerprint scanning for quick entry, to passcodes for guest access, and even app-based remote unlocking for those constantly on the move.
Beyond convenience, the Y3000FVP Plus prioritizes front door security. Equipped with a 1080p camera featuring ultra-wide viewing and night vision, the lock ensures clear monitoring at any time of the day or night. Users receive real-time alerts when movement is detected and can review recorded events. For enhanced protection, the lock is fortified with anti-theft features, such as an automatic siren to deter tampering, a C-grade cylinder to block unauthorized access, and long passcodes to safeguard against guessing attempts.
Revolutionizing front door security with AI-driven facial and palm vein recognition, the Y3000FVP Plus brings the future of home access to the forefront of smart living.
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The United States launched a second round of airstrikes on Iran into Thursday morning after U.S. President Donald Trump warned that Tehran would “pay the price” for stalled negotiations, and Iran responded with strikes targeting Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan.
The new U.S. assault across multiple Iranian cities came as efforts to negotiate an end the war again appeared stuck, with Iran insisting it would maintain its chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz, which has disrupted global energy supplies and sent oil prices higher. The American attack appeared more intense and wider than the day before, but Iran released little information on the extent of the damage.
Kuwait closed its airspace for several hours because of the Thursday morning attack, but did not elaborate on any damage. Jordan didn't acknowledge the attack, though the U.S. Embassy in Amman warned about it. And in Bahrain, its Interior Ministry said an 11-year-old girl had been hurt and cars and homes were damaged by “falling debris” from interceptions targeting the Iranian attack.
The third back-and-forth strikes this week have tested a two-month shaky ceasefire. The first were attacks between Iran and Israel on Sunday into Monday, followed by the two rounds of fire between America and Tehran.
Trump has urged Iran to sign a deal to end the war and suggested earlier this week that an agreement could be reached in days.
But Iran has proved resilient despite weeks of heavy bombing. It is betting that its ability to effectively close the Strait of Hormuz — a crucial passageway for oil and natural gas — gives it a strong bargaining chip.
Still, both countries seem to be looking for a way to end the conflict — if they can manage to sell it as a win at home.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears intent on pursuing goals that make compromise harder: the collapse of Iran’s theocratic government, the elimination of its nuclear program, and the destruction of the Iranian-allied Hezbollah militant group in Lebanon.
The U.S. Central Command said its latest round of airstrikes ended just before sunrise Thursday in Iran. The military command said the strikes came “in response to Iran’s unwarranted and continued aggression” and targeted “Iranian military surveillance capabilities, communication systems and air defense sites.” It did not elaborate on the damage done by the strikes, which it said were carried out by the U.S. Air Force, Marines and Navy.
Explosions from the strikes echoed around Iran’s capital, Tehran, as well as the port city of Bandar Abbas and other southern areas along the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard later said sites hit by the Americans included a manufacturing complex, a military barracks and a local Guard base outside of Tehran.
Iran responded by launching strikes on Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan for a second day.
Israel early Thursday also warned residents in the north to seek shelter after the detection of suspected incoming fire from Lebanon.
Since the U.S. and Israel started the war with Feb. 28 attacks on Iran, the conflict has shaken the global economy, driven up energy prices and made food and other basics more expensive.
The international benchmark for crude oil traded above $93 a barrel on Wednesday, up more than 25% since the start of the war.
Trump said the U.S. military has since last month undertaken a “secret mission” to sneak oil shipments past Iran’s forces in the Strait of Hormuz. He said ships were slipping through at night, aided by the destruction of Iranian radar equipment.
Trump said as a result more than 100 million barrels of oil have evaded Iran’s chokehold on the strait. There was no immediate confirmation of that figure, which roughly equals five days of oil shipments through the waterway before the war began.
The military’s role was not immediately clear. The U.S. Central Command on Wednesday disputed Iran’s claims that the Strait of Hormuz is closed, saying commercial ships are continuing to transit in and out.
Wary of high gas prices in the run-up to midterm elections in November, Trump seems to be looking for a quick win. But he is also making demands that will be tough for Iran to swallow.
The U.S. wants to see Iran give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium. While Iran insists its nuclear program is peaceful, that uranium is a short technical step from weapons-grade levels.
Iran is refusing to give up the uranium and demanding relief from sanctions. It also wants the release of frozen assets even before a final agreement is in place, something Trump rejected.
Iran has insisted that any deal to end the war must also end fighting between its ally Hezbollah and Israel.
A Qatari diplomatic delegation, negotiating in coordination with the U.S., left Tehran on Thursday morning after holding talks, said an official with knowledge of the team who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the mediation.
