Abstract
Methods communicate among a client device, a network device, and an audio/video recording and communication device (A/V device). The network device includes a processor, memory, and instructions that when executed by the processor implement the method. An indication that an application associated with the A/V device is running and open on a display of the client device is received from the client device. Update information, when received by the A/V device, causes the A/V device to adjust a keep-alive interval from a first amount of time to a second amount of time shorter than the first amount of time. A signal from the A/V device is received, and the update information is transmitted to the A/V device in response.
Claims23
A method for communicating among a client device, a network device, and an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device (A/V device), the network device including a processor, memory, and instructions that when executed by the processor implement the method, the method comprising:
- receiving an indication from the client device that an application associated with the A/V device is running and open on a display of the client device;
- generating update information that, when received by the A/V device, causes the A/V device to adjust a keep-alive interval of the A/V device from a first amount of time to a second amount of time shorter than the first amount of time;
- receiving a signal from the A/V device;
- and
- transmitting the update information to the A/V device in response to receiving the signal from the A/V device.
A method for communication among a client device, an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device (A/V device), and a network device, the network device including a processor, memory, and instructions that when executed by the processor implement the method, the method comprising:
- receiving a signal from an application executed by the client device, wherein the application enables the client device to communicate with the A/V device;
- generating, in response to the signal, update information that, when received by the A/V device, causes the A/V device to terminate a keep-alive interval associated with a low-power state of the A/V device;
- and
- transmitting the update information to the A/V device.
A method for communication among a client device, an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device (A/V device), and a network device, the A/V device including a processor, memory, and instructions that when executed by the processor implement the method, the method comprising:
- transmitting a request to the network device when a keep-alive interval ends;
- receiving, from the network device, update information instructing the A/V device to modify a length of the keep-alive interval;
- and
- modifying the length of the keep-alive interval of the A/V device based upon the update information;
- wherein the modification to the keep-alive interval of the A/V device is based at least in part on an indication that an application executed by the client device is running and has been displayed on a display of the client device.
