## Details

### Simulation and storage

Kevin recreates a believable human presence with patented light and shadow effects and authentic pre-recorded household sound. Its library holds **more than 70 hours of alternating, non-repeating simulations**, all stored **locally on the device**. Because the content lives on the device, the simulations play back independently of any cloud service or continuous internet connection.

### Power

Kevin is **mains powered** through a **3 m cable**. Typical operation draws around **9 W**, which is a low level of power consumption for continuous use.

### Connectivity and jammer resilience

Kevin supports both **Wi-Fi** and **Bluetooth**. Because simulations are stored and played locally, Kevin **keeps simulating even if the Wi-Fi is jammed** — a scenario that can disable many internet-dependent cameras and alarms.

### Dimensions

Kevin measures approximately **21.2 × 10.2 × 9.2 cm**.

### Privacy by design

Kevin has **no camera** and **no microphone**. It does **not listen** and does **not share data with third parties**. All simulation content is stored and played back locally on the device.

### Dual purpose

When you are at home, Kevin also functions as a **Bluetooth speaker** and a **lamp**.
