A device for managing a secured local wireless network, comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory having instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the device to perform operations including:
- wirelessly communicating, via the secured local wireless network, with a first electronic device and a second electronic device;
- controlling operation, via a remote device, of at least one of the first electronic device or the second electronic device;
- receiving surveillance data captured by the first electronic device;
- and
- in response to receiving the captured surveillance data, controlling the second electronic device based on the received surveillance data and locally stored user-inputted settings.
A method, comprising:
- automatically controlling operation of a plurality of wireless electronic devices, wherein each of the wireless electronic devices is configured to communicate via a secured local network managed by a local management device;
- receiving, at the local management device, surveillance data captured by a first one of the plurality of wireless electronic devices;
- and
- in response to receiving the surveillance data, controlling operation of a second one of the plurality of wireless electronic devices based on at least a portion of the received surveillance data and locally-stored user settings.
A system for wireless communication, comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory having instructions executable by the one or more processors to cause the system to:
- wirelessly communicate, via a secured local wireless network, with a first electronic device and a second electronic device;
- control operation at least one of the first electronic device or the second electronic device based user input provided via a remote device;
- receive surveillance data captured by the first electronic device;
- and
- in response to receiving the captured surveillance data, locally control the second electronic device based on the received surveillance data and locally stored user-inputted settings.
