Abstract
Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for processing alarm signals are presented. In some embodiments, a mobile device may be registered with a security system that is installed at a premises. Subsequently, an alarm trigger associated with the security system may be received. Based on receiving the alarm trigger, the location of the mobile device may be determined. A response to the alarm trigger then may be determined based on the location of the mobile device.
Claims40
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device associated with a security system, an indication of an alarm triggering event at a premises;
- based on receiving the indication of the alarm triggering event, determining at least one sensor condition, wherein the at least one sensor condition is associated with one or more sensor;
- of the premises;
- and
- based on the at least one sensor condition and on information indicating false alarm sensor conditions, of the one or more sensors of the premises, that are indicative of a false alarm, causing adjusted output of an alarm associated with the alarm triggering event.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device associated with a security system, an indication of an alarm triggering event at a premises;
- based on receiving the indication of the alarm triggering event, determining at least two sensor conditions that are associated with at least two sensors of the premises;
- and
- based on determining that the at least two sensor conditions are indicative of a false alarm, causing adjusted output of an alarm associated with the alarm triggering event.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device associated with a security system, an indication of an alarm triggering event at a premises;
- based on receiving the indication of the alarm triggering event, determining at least one sensor condition that is associated with one or more sensors associated with the security system;
- and
- based on the at least one sensor condition and on information indicating that an order in which a plurality of sensors are tripped is indicative of a false alarm, causing adjusted output of an alarm associated with the alarm triggering event.
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
- receive an indication of an alarm triggering event at a premises;
- based on receiving the indication of the alarm triggering event, determine at least one sensor condition, wherein the at least one sensor condition is associated with one or more sensors of the premises;
- and
- based on the at least one sensor condition and on information indicating false alarm sensor conditions, of the one or more sensors of the premises, that are indicative of a false alarm, cause adjusted output of an alarm associated with the alarm triggering event.
An apparatus comprising:
