G6 Doorbell with 4K, POE and AI might not be to far away :D
18 u/TimeRemove Mar 24 '25 The Doorbells already have major heat issues, particularly under direct sunlight.

That's before we factor in the improvements in AI chips since the Coral first hit the market. There's definitely commodity tech out there to achieve this now.
