Roku introduces affordable home monitoring system.

Roku has launched a Home Monitoring System SE kit that includes two entry sensors, a motion sensor, a hub, and a keypad for $99. The system can be monitored through a phone, Roku media players, and compatible TVs. The company has partnered with Wyze for the hardware and offers an optional professional monitoring service for $100 per year. The move into smart home products could help Roku supplement its core business while competing against Amazon and others.
