Abstract
Surveillance systems and methods are described herein. Surveillance systems and methods can include detecting a number of interactions within a building, determining an event based on the number of interactions, and sending a message to a number of contacts relating to the event.
Claims20
A method for surveillance, comprising:
- detecting a number of interactions within a building, wherein the number of interactions include environmental interactions and occupant interactions;
- determining an event based on the number of environmental interactions and occupant interactions within the building, wherein the occupant interactions include actions of a user that are detected within the building;
- determining an identity of a number of occupants within the building during the determined event;
- and
- sending a message to a number of designated contacts during the determined event when the environmental interactions of the determined event are a threat to the identified number of occupants within the building.
2 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising instructions to:
- receive a number of detected interactions within an area, wherein the number of interactions include environmental interactions and occupant interactions within the area, wherein the occupant interactions include actions of a user that are detected within the area;
- determine a response based on the number of detected environmental interactions, occupant interactions, and an identity of a number of occupants within the area during the detected interactions within the area, wherein the response includes altering a number of environmental settings for the area;
- determine a number of contacts based on the detected interactions and identity of the number of occupants within the area during the detected interactions within the area;
- and
- send a message to the number of contacts when the environmental interactions are a threat to the identified number of occupants within the area.
2 more elements
A system, comprising:
- a computing device hub including instructions to:
- detect a number of interactions within a first area, wherein the number of interactions include environmental interactions within the first area;
- receive a number of detected interactions from sensors within a second area, wherein the number of detected interactions include occupant interactions within the second area;
- determine a response based on the number of detected interactions from the first and second areas, wherein the response includes altering a number of environmental settings based on an identity of a number of occupants corresponding to the occupant interactions;
- determine a number of contacts based on the environmental interactions within the first area and the identity of the number of occupants corresponding to the occupant interactions within the second area;
- and
- send a message to the number of contacts when the environmental interactions within the first area are a threat to the identified number of occupants within the second area.
