alarm home security systems
In some implementations, the integrated devices of the smart
home environment 100 include intelligent, multi sensing, network connected devices that integrate seamlessly with each other in a smart home network e. g. , 202 FIG. 2A and/or with a central server or a cloud computing system to provide a variety of useful smart home functions. The smart home environment 100 may include one or more intelligent, multi sensing, network connected thermostats 102 hereinafter
referred to as “smart thermostats 102”, one or more intelligent, network connected, multi sensing hazard detection units 104 hereinafter referred to as “smart hazard detectors 104”, one or more intelligent, multi sensing, network connected entryway interface devices 106 and 120 hereinafter referred to as “smart doorbells 106” and “smart door locks 120”, and one or more intelligent, multi sensing, network connected alarm systems 122 hereinafter referred to as “smart alarm systems 122”. The smart doorbell 106 and/or the smart door lock 120 may detect a person's approach to or departure from a location e.

10E is a flow
chart of a method 1050 for controlling a
doorbell camera in accordance with some implementations. In some implementations, the method 1050 is implemented at the doorbell camera 106 having a doorbell housing 702 and a doorbell button 1002 mounted on a front cover plate 708 of the doorbell housing 702. The doorbell housing 702 contains a camera module, an LED indicator, a processor and memory including programs executed by the processor. The doorbell camera 106 is electrically coupled to 1052 a remote chime 1006 via a bypass unit 1012 powered by a transformer 1010 that provides an input AC voltage. The remote chime 1006 is configured to ring 1054 in response to a user press on the doorbell button 1002. A supply monitoring signal is generated 1056 by the doorbell camera 106 based on the input AC voltage to indicate whether the input AC voltage is greater than a supply threshold.

In some implementations, the server system 164 includes one or more processors 212, a video storage database 210, an account database 214, an I/O interface to one or more client devices 216, and an I/O interface to one or more video
sources 218. The I/O interface to one or more clients 216 facilitates the client facing input and output processing. The account database 214 stores a plurality of profiles for reviewer accounts registered with the video processing server, where a respective user profile includes account credentials for a respective reviewer account, and one or more video sources linked to the respective reviewer account. The I/O interface to one or more video sources 218 facilitates communications with one or more video sources 222 e. g. , groups of one or more cameras and associated controller devices. The video storage database 210 stores raw video data received from the video sources 222, as well as various types of metadata, such as motion events, event categories, event category models, event filters, and event masks, for use in data processing for event monitoring and review for each reviewer account. Examples of the one or more networks 162 include local area networks LAN and wide area networks WAN such as the Internet. The one or more networks 162 are
implemented using any known network protocol, including various wired or wireless protocols, such as Ethernet, Universal Serial Bus USB, FIREWIRE, Long Term Evolution LTE, Global System for Mobile Communications GSM, Enhanced Data GSM Environment EDGE, code division multiple access CDMA, time division multiple access TDMA, Bluetooth, Wi Fi, voice over Internet Protocol VoIP, Wi MAX, or any other suitable communication protocol. In some implementations, the server system 164 is implemented on one or more standalone data processing apparatuses or a distributed network of computers. In some implementations, the server system 164 also employs various virtual devices and/or services of third party service providers e.
