When the UniFi G4 Doorbell Pro rings, Home Assistant uses a recent face match or requests recognition through CompreFace, plays a personalized greeting through the doorbell, and announces the arrival on the configured Sonos speakers and HomePods. Immich supplies the reference photographs from its labeled photo library, allowing initial enrollment to proceed without a separate session at the door.</p> https://whitematter.tech/posts/doorbell-face-greeting/ Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://whitematter.tech/posts/doorbell-face-greeting/ <hr> <h1 id="a-familiar-voice-at-the-front-door">A Familiar Voice at the Front Door</h1> <p>When someone presses the front doorbell, it can now greet a recognized visitor by name: &ldquo;Welcome, Sam.&rdquo; Inside the house, the Sonos speakers and HomePods announce, &ldquo;Sam Carter is at the front door.&rdquo; An unrecognized visitor receives no spoken greeting from the doorbell; the household receives a neutral announcement during the configured waking hours. The reference faces come from our family photo library, where Immich already maintains the names and photographs needed for enrollment.</p>
