Abstract: The disclosure describes techniques for interacting with visitors at a visitor interaction system. A method includes obtaining video data captured by the visitor interaction system, identifying an approach of a person, and analyzing the video data to determine an identity of the person. The method includes automatically and without user intervention determining that the person belongs to a visitor groups of a plurality of visitor groups. Each of the visitor groups corresponds to a response model that includes a plurality of response actions. At least one of the response actions includes an autonomous response action. The method includes identifying a response model corresponding to the visitor groups and initiating an autonomous response action associated with the response model. Initiating the autonomous response action including presenting a message to the person, monitoring a response to the message, and sending a report message to the user via a client device.

Abstract: In aspects, a visitor interaction system is described for interacting with visitors. The visitor interaction system can obtain video data, identify an approach of a person, and determine an identity of the person. Further, the visitor interaction system can determine that the person belongs to a respective visitor group of a plurality of visitor groups. Each of the plurality of visitor groups corresponds to a response model that includes a plurality of response actions. At least one of the response actions includes an autonomous response action. The visitor interaction system can also identify a response model corresponding to the respective visitor group and initiate an autonomous response action associated with the response model. The visitor interaction system can then send a report message to the user via a client device.

Abstract: A display assistant device comprises a display, a camera, a speaker, microphones, a processor and memory. The memory stores programs comprising instructions that, when executed by the processor, enable a plurality of modes of the display assistant device. The modes include a monitoring mode and an assistant mode. In the monitoring mode, the device is configured to perform a remote monitoring function in which first video captured by the camera is streamed to a remote server system for monitoring uses. The monitoring uses include transmission of the first video to remote client devices authorized to access the first video. In the assistant mode, the device is configured to perform a second plurality of functions that excludes the monitoring function and includes a video communication function in which second video captured by the camera is transmitted to second devices participating in a video communication with a first user of the device.

Abstract: Implementations of the disclosed subject matter provide systems and methods of granting temporary control access of a home security system of a first user to a second user, where the temporary control access is for at least a portion of a home security system for a predetermined period of time. One or more tasks to be completed for the first user may be completed by the second user while having temporary control access to the home security system. The temporary control access of the second user to the at least a portion of the home security system of the first user may be revoked when the predetermined period of time has elapsed. The second user may receive a notification may be received for a security event, a safety event, a home event, and a package delivery event after the predetermined period of time has lapsed.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for a multi-state press and hold user interface. A state visualization may be displayed on a touchscreen. The state visualization may include a control for a controlled system and an indicator of a state of the controlled system. The indicator may be for an initial state of the controlled system. An indication of an initial touch input to the control may be received. It may be determined that touch input to the control has persisted for a threshold amount of time after the initial touch input to the control. An instruction may be sent to change state to the controlled system. The instruction may be based on the initial state of the controlled system. An updated state of the controlled system may be received. The indicator of the state visualization may be changed to an indicator for the updated state of the controlled system.

Abstract: The shielding status of a security system may be determined based on shielding statuses of individual devices in the security system. The shielding status of each individual device in the security system may be determined based on whether it is in a secured state and is properly functioning. The shielding status of the security system may be determined based on equally or unequally weighted shielding statuses of the individual devices. The shielding status of the security system may be transmitted to a mobile device carried by a user who is outside of the monitored environment. The shielding status of the security system may also be transmitted to the security monitoring company, the device vendor, or the homeowner insurance carrier, which may advertise products or services or provide incentives to the user based on the shielding status of the security system.
