Abstract: Systems and methods for managing smart devices associated with a multi-family residential property are disclosed. A method of managing smart devices includes receiving, by a server from a first smart hub via a first network, information relating to operating conditions of each smart hub of a plurality of smart hubs. The first smart hub is operable as a gateway for relaying communications between the server via the first network and other smart hubs via a second network. The server monitors the operating conditions of each smart hub based on the information received from the first smart hub. Based on a detected change in the operating conditions of the first smart hub, the server selects a second smart hub to operate as the gateway. The server transmits one or more commands via the first network to switch the gateway from the first smart hub to the second smart hub.

Abstract: A smart thermostat hub and a management platform for controlling and securing smart devices in a multi-family residential property are disclosed. Smart thermostat hubs may bi-directionally communicate with the management platform using a LoRaWAN communication link and communicate with smart devices present within an apartment of the multi-family residential property via a non-LoRaWAN communication link. Smart thermostat hub may provide a gateway or bridge between the management platform and an offline door lock, thereby enabling access credentials for an offline door lock to be disabled from the management platform, and may serve to facilitate remote configuration of other smart devices, such as thermostats and smart light fixtures, for example.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems, methods, and computer-readable storage devices for enabling user management and control of responses of a virtual assistant for use in responding to questions related to multi-dwelling units without requiring reprogramming of the virtual assistant. To illustrate, a question to be answered by a virtual assistant may be received, and one or more responses to the question may be retrieved from a response database for the virtual assistant. A user interface (UI) may be provided that indicates the one or more responses. A user-selected response may be received via the UI, the user-selected response including a selected response from the one or more responses or a user-created response. An entry in the response database may be updated based on the user-selected response and a priority associated with the entry may be set, such as by increasing the priority based on user selection of the response.

Abstract: An optical article comprising a primary mark disposed on the optical article and a secondary mark disposed on the optical article in close proximity to the primary mark. The primary mark comprises a first optical-state change material and the secondary mark comprises a second optical-state change material. The optical article is transformed from a pre-activated state to an activated state when a localized authorized activation method is used that selectively activates the primary mark. The optical article is transformed from a pre-activated state to an deactivated state when a non-localized unauthorized activation method is used that activates the secondary mark along with the primary mark resulting in the second optical-state change material undergoing a reverse color change when compared to the first optical-state change material. An optical article with a single mark including multiple color change optical-state change material is also disclosed.
