Samsung is preparing to re enter the camera enabled appliance market with a dual camera doorbell, based on a new design patent spotted at the Korean Intellectual Property office. The patent images show a wide, vertically oriented rectangle design primarily consisting of two speakers, a dual camera sensor array, and display embedded behind glass. An apparent capacitive button with a glowing bell icon is included in the metal frame just below that and the frame extends around the entire doorbell. Viewed from the top, the back half of the doorbell is flat to sit flush with a wall or door frame. The front side is flat along the top and bottom edge but has curves similar to the company's Galaxy S series flagships at the left and right hand edge. No indication is given with regard to scale but, based on the size of the camera sensors in relation to the overall size of the doorbell, it wouldn't likely be much larger than a few inches wide.
