Patent number: 11881295Abstract: Medication management and reporting technology, in which output from at least one sensor configured to sense physical activity in a building in which medication of a patient is located is monitored and a determination is made to capture one or more images of the medication based on the monitoring. A camera is used to capture an image of the medication and the captured image is analyzed to detect a state of the medication. Information regarding a schedule by which the medication should be taken by the patient is accessed and an expected state of the medication is determined. The detected state is compared with the expected state and a determination is made that the patient has departed from the schedule based on the comparison revealing that the detected state does not match the expected state. A message indicating the departure from the schedule is sent based on the determination.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2021Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: Alarm.com IncorporatedInventors: Mark Andrew Hanson, Elizabeth Leslie Manson

Publication number: 20220262224Abstract: Fall detection and reporting technology, in which output from at least one sensor configured to sense, in a room of a building, activity associated with a patient falling is monitored and a determination is made to capture one or more images of the room based on the monitoring. An image of the room is captured with a camera positioned to include the patient within a field of view of the camera and the captured image of the room is analyzed to detect a state of the patient at a time of capturing the image. A potential fall event for the patient is determined based on the detected state of the patient and a message indicating the potential fall event for the patient is sent based on the determination of the potential fall event for the patient. Techniques are also described for fall detection and reporting using an on-body sensing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 4, 2022Publication date: August 18, 2022Inventors: Mark Andrew Hanson, Jean-Paul Martin, Adam T.

Patent number: 10679756Abstract: Health and wellness management technology, in which events that relate to activity within the monitored property are sensed based on output from sensors located at a monitored property. Behaviors are detected based on the sensed events that relate to activity within the monitored property and, in accordance with the detected behaviors, one or more models are created based on a likelihood of similarly expressed events happening at similar times with similar characteristics. Additional behaviors detected after creation of the one or more models are evaluated against the one or more models to determine whether the additional behaviors are consistent with the one or more models. At least one action is performed based on the determination of whether the additional behaviors are consistent with the one or more models.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2016Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: Alarm.com IncorporatedInventors: Mark Andrew Hanson, Christopher Silverman, Adam T.
