Abstract: Doorbells often include a button to enable visitors to ring a chime to summon building occupants. In some embodiments, doorbells include a camera to take pictures of visitors. In several embodiments, doorbells include covers that are light filters. These light filters can cover infrared light sources such as infrared light emitting diodes. The light filters can pass infrared light while blocking visible light. In several embodiments, a front portion of a camera assembly fits through a hole in a light filter. Light filters can help secure camera assemblies and can form a portion of a doorbell's outer housing.

Systems can include a first communication sent from the parcel holding system to the doorbell in response to the parcel holding system detecting an arrival, a movement, or a removal of the delivery parcel. Systems can also include a second communication sent from the doorbell to a remote computing device in response to the doorbell receiving the first communication.

Abstract: A method is provided for delivering directed transmission of sound waves through modulation on an ultrasonic carrier. In some embodiments, the method comprises connecting at least one directed sound source to an audio system and emitting, via the at least one directed sound source, audio from the audio system, wherein the emitting comprises emitting medium frequency audio sound waves and higher frequency audio sound waves. The audio may be selected via a master control unit, operatively coupled to a mobile application. In some embodiments, a first audio selection is configured to be heard only through a first directed sound source, and a second audio selection is configured to be heard only through a second directed sound source. Additionally, systems and methods are provided for delivering therapeutic sound, through a sinusoidal signal, within an environment intended to cause resonance in certain cells.

Abstract: Systems and methods herein provide directed sound to venues, including a queue line and locations offering multiple viewing devices with different audio streams. Directed sound can be sent to various locations in the queue line to reach specific individuals, positions in the queue line, etc. A queue rate may be used to determine current locations in the queue line. The directed transmission of sound waves can provide the directed sound through modulation of the sound on an ultrasonic carrier. In connection with directing sound to a specific location in a venue, one or more individuals can be tracked according to an indoor positioning system to send a sound message using a modulated ultrasonic carrier.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for directing sound through a parametric speaker in connection with interpreting/translating messages in an open forum such that communications may be delivered and understood without the use of headphones. The directed sound may also be directed in connection with detecting auditory areas and targeting sound at the auditory regions of a subject.

Abstract: A method for providing directed transmission of sound waves, through modulation on an ultrasonic carrier, may comprise connecting at least one directed sound source to an audio system; emitting, via the at least one directed sound source, audio from the audio system, wherein the emitting comprises emitting medium-frequency audio waves and higher-frequency audio waves. The audio may be selected via a master control unit (MCU), which may be operatively coupled to a mobile application. In some embodiments, a first audio selection is configured to be heard only through a first directed sound source, and a second audio selection is configured to be heard only through a second directed sound source.
