Abstract: In one aspect, a system includes a movable barrier operator configured to open and close a movable barrier; at least one ultra-wideband device associated with the movable barrier operator and electrically configured to receive ultra-wideband radio frequency signals; and a processor operatively connected to the at least one ultra-wideband device and configured to use the ultra-wideband radio signals to determine a status of the movable barrier.

Abstract: In one aspect, a pet access apparatus including an actuator and a pet door movable between a closed position and an open position. The pet access apparatus includes communication circuitry to receive a signal indicative of proximity of a pet to the pet door. The pet access apparatus includes an interior camera, an exterior camera, and a processor operably coupled to the actuator, the communication circuitry, the interior camera, and the exterior camera. The processor is configured to determine an attempt by the pet to operate the pet door based at least in part on the proximity of the pet to the pet door, the interior image data, and the exterior image data. The processor is further configured to facilitate movement of the pet door from the closed position toward the open position upon the determination of the attempt by the pet to operate the pet door.
