Hikvision doorbell—> Alexa Announcement

[PAT_RIOT]

So I’ve been reading about the Hikvision doorbell and how it doesn’t have a chime etc

would this work

- install Hikvision doorbell
- find on Hikvision NVR and add
- set doorbell alarm input to trigger NVR output (probably doesn’t have this option - motion maybe)
- wire in a fibaro FGBS-001
- connect above to Samsung smartthings
- find on alexa
- set input detection to announce “someone is at the door”

Boom! Smart doorbell

LOL! The title of post made me think that Hikvision was making a doorbell for Amazon's Alexa Echo line up.

Oh bugger sorry mate, that would be great though if it directly connected, maybe in ten years time

Does anyone have a Hikvision doorbell/NVR to see what alarm options are on offer?
