Publication number: 20190188937Abstract: An electronic door lock system automatically controls locking and unlocking of a door. A door lock controller interfaces with an electronic door lock, sends messages including door lock data to a local receiver, and receives messages including door lock commands from the local receiver. In turn, the local receiver interfaces with a hub device through a mesh network. The hub receives the door lock data, applies a rule set to make lock operation decisions, and sends messages, which may comprise commands to operate the door lock, through the mesh network to the local receiver. The local receiver decodes the messages and passes the commands to the door lock controller to automatically control the electronic door lock.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2018Publication date: June 20, 2019Inventors: Daniel Brian Cregg, Marcus Paul Escobosa

Patent number: 9754483Abstract: Disconnected from the powerline, a battery-powered receiver is configured to conserve power. The receiver communicates information between a local controller and a communication network that uses the powerline and a radio frequency (RF) band to propagate messages. An antenna wirelessly detects the presence of the powerline carrier signal that radiates into free space, which indicates a first message encoded onto the powerline. A computer processor wakes up from an inactive state based on the presence of the carrier signal and receives a second message via a second RF signal having a different frequency than the powerline carrier signal, and determines whether the device address in the second message is the assigned address of the receiver. If the message is not addressed to the receiver, the receiver returns to an inactive state.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2015Date of Patent: September 5, 2017Assignee: SmartLabs, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Brian Cregg, Marcus Paul Escobosa

Patent number: 9529345Abstract: An electronic window covering control system automatically controls the position and orientation of a window covering. A window covering controller interfaces with a light intensity sensor, a temperature sensor, and an electronic window covering configured to raise and lower the covering and tilt the slats. The window covering controller sends sensor data to a local receiver and receives window covering commands from the local receiver. The local receiver interfaces with a hub device through a mesh network and sends the sensor data to the hub. The hub applies a rule set to make operation decisions based on sensor data and user preferences, and sends messages comprising commands to operate the window covering through the mesh network to the local receiver. The local receiver decodes the messages and passes the window covering commands to the window covering controller to automatically control the electronic window covering.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2013Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: SmartLabs, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Brian Cregg, Joseph J. Dada, Marcus Paul Escobosa

Patent number: 9361786Abstract: An electronic window covering control system automatically controls raising, lowering, and rotating a window covering of a window. A window covering controller interfaces with an electronic window covering, sends messages including sensor data to a local receiver, and receives messages including window covering commands from the local receiver. In turn, the local receiver interfaces with a hub device through a mesh network. The hub receives the sensor data, applies a rule set to make window covering operation decisions, and sends messages, which may comprise commands to operate the window covering, through the mesh network to the local receiver. The local receiver decodes the messages and passes the window covering commands to the window covering controller to automatically control the electronic window covering.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2013Date of Patent: June 7, 2016Assignee: SMARTLABS, INC.Inventors: Daniel Brian Cregg, Joseph J.

The hub applies a rule set to make lock operation decisions, and sends messages comprising commands to operate the door lock through the mesh network to the local receiver. The local receiver decodes the messages and passes the commands to the door lock controller to automatically control the electronic door lock. A door state device checks the state of the door. When the checking mechanism indicates that the message was not received or the lock operation failed, the system alerts the user to take appropriate lock action.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2013Date of Patent: May 24, 2016Assignee: SMARTLABS, INC.Inventors: Daniel Brian Cregg, Marcus Paul Escobosa

Patent number: 9324203Abstract: A door lock controller receives sensor data from a sensor, such as a motion sensor or an RF envelope sensor, and determines whether to permit operation of a keypad associated with the door lock based at least in part on the sensor data. The door lock controller further sends messages including key pad data to a local receiver, receives messages containing door lock commands from the local receiver, and controls a state of the door lock based at least in part on the door lock commands.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2013Date of Patent: April 26, 2016Assignee: SmartLabs, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Brian Cregg, Marcus Paul Escobosa

Patent number: 9239095Abstract: A unique transmission based on a servo-automated gearbox is disclosed wherein each of its gear pairs is self-disengaging and self-engaging requiring only the switching of dedicated hydraulic valves to transition from the disengagement of a gear pair to the engagement of a newly selected pair. During shifting, one servo controls the zeroing of the difference between the speed of the engine and the speed of the gearbox output shaft as required by the gear ratio of the selected gear pair. Concurrently another servo, by controlling the slip of several gear pairs, maintains the current vehicle acceleration or deceleration while also decelerating or accelerating, respectively, the slip-engaged engine toward the required speed.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2014Date of Patent: January 19, 2016Inventors: Alfonso Soto Escobosa, Marcus Paul Escobosa
