Systems and methods for voice-activated control of an access control platform

A method for a server computer configured to facilitate operation of a movable barrier operator using voice commands, the method comprising:

• receiving, at the server computer, a request for a first rolling voice identifier from a communication apparatus in response to receipt, by a user interface of the communication apparatus, of a voice command of a user, the voice command requesting a state change of a movable barrier;
• accessing user account information;
• sending the first rolling voice identifier to the communication apparatus to cause the communication apparatus to provide a first physical stimulus to the user based at least in part on the first rolling voice identifier and the user account information;
• receiving, from the communication apparatus, a communication indicative of a user voice response to the first physical stimulus;
• and
• determining whether to instruct the movable barrier operator to change a state of the movable barrier based at least in part on the user voice response to the first physical stimulus.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having program instructions that, when executed by a processor of a server computer, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, at the server computer, a request for a first rolling voice identifier from a communication apparatus in response to receipt, by a user interface of the communication apparatus, of a voice command of a user, the voice command requesting a state change of a movable barrier;
• accessing user account information;
• sending the first rolling voice identifier to the communication apparatus to cause the communication apparatus to provide a first physical stimulus to the user based at least in part on the first rolling voice identifier and the user account information;
• receiving, from the communication apparatus, a communication indicative of a user voice response to the first physical stimulus;
• and
• determining whether to instruct a movable barrier operator to change a state of the movable barrier based at least in part on the user voice response to the first physical stimulus.
