Abstract

Motion or event detection and notification devices and methods are disclosed. Motion or event detection information can be processed and interfaced with in order to facilitate system functionality. In an embodiment, a unique ID can be utilized to identify a recipient of an alert. Unique IDs can correspond to different users or devices of a motion or event detection system. In some embodiments, information relating to the detection can be relayed to a user of the system. That information can take on different forms, including basic information such as a simple notification or other forms such as a live feed of the event. The ability to implement such a system can allow for increased security for an area or increased peace-of-mind for a user or monitor of the system.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A method, comprising:

receiving, by a mobile device comprising a processor and having a smartphone application installed and running thereon, from a hub device communicatively coupled to a motion sensor device, information indicative of a detection of a presence of a moving object;
in response to the receiving the information and based on a condition being determined to be satisfied, generating, by the mobile device running the smartphone application a first signal to be sent to a control server, wherein the first signal comprises the information indicative of the detection of the presence of the moving object;
in response to the first signal being sent to the control server, receiving, by the mobile device running the smartphone application, a second signal comprising a confirmation that the first signal was received by the control server, wherein the first signal being sent to the control server enables the control server to further send an event message, based on the first signal, to a group of smartphone applications registered with the control server as authorized to receive the event message, and wherein the group of smartphone applications comprises the smartphone application;
and
in response to the receiving the second signal, generating, by the mobile device running the smartphone application, a notification of the detection via different modalities at the mobile device.

A motion detection system, comprising:

a mobile device comprising a smartphone application installed and executing thereon, a processor, and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
receiving, from a hub device communicatively coupled to a motion sensor device, information indicative of a detection of a presence of a moving object;
in response to the receiving the information and based on a condition being determined to be satisfied, generating a first signal to be sent to a control server, wherein the first signal comprises the information indicative of the detection of the moving object;
in response to the first signal being sent to the control server, receiving a second signal comprising a confirmation that the first signal was received by the control server, wherein the first signal being sent to the control server enables the control server to further send an event message, based on the first signal, to a group of smartphone applications registered with the control server as authorized to receive the event message, and wherein the group of smartphone applications comprises the smartphone application;
and
in response to the receiving the second signal, generating a notification of the detection via different modalities at the mobile device.

3 more elements

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a mobile device, comprising a smartphone application instantiated thereon and that is communicatively coupled to a security system, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

receiving, from a hub device communicatively coupled to a motion sensor device, information indicative of a detection of a presence of a moving object;
in response to the receiving the information and based on a condition being determined to be satisfied, generating a first signal to be sent to a control server, wherein the first signal comprises the information indicative of the detection of the presence of the moving object;
in response to the first signal being sent to the control server, receiving a second signal comprising a confirmation that the first signal was received by the control server, wherein the first signal being sent to the control server enables the control server to further send an event message, based on the first signal, to a group of smartphone applications registered with the control server as authorized to receive the event message, and wherein the group of smartphone applications comprises the smartphone application;
and
in response to the receiving the second signal, generating a notification of the moving object via different modalities at the mobile device.
