  • Publication number: 20210099676
    Abstract: An audio/video recording and communication device (A/V device) including one or more motion sensors arranged in a first row, a first camera, one or more second cameras arranged in a second row, a first cover disposed over the one or more motion sensors, a second cover disposed over the first camera, and a third cover disposed over the one or more second cameras. The one or more motion sensors may include a first motion sensor having a first orientation, a second motion sensor having a second orientation, and a third motion sensor having a third orientation. Additionally, the one or more second cameras may include a camera having a first orientation, a camera having a second orientation, and a camera having a third orientation. In some instances, the first camera is located between the one or more motion sensors and the one or more second cameras.

  • Publication number: 20210097830
    Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, an audio/video (A/V) device that includes a first camera for generating first image data and one or more second cameras for both motion detection and generating second image data. For instance, the A/V device may generate and then store the second image data in one or more buffers. The A/V device may then detect an event, such as possible motion of an object. Based on detecting the event, A/V device may cause the one or more second cameras to cease generating the second image data and cause the first camera to begin generating the first image data. The A/V device may then process the second image data and send the processed second image data to a computing system. Next, the A/V device may process the first image data and send the processed first image data to the computing system.

  • Publication number: 20200394882
    Abstract: An audio/video (A/V) device may include or accommodate a viewer through a barrier. For example, an A/V device may include a first component for installation on an exterior surface of a door, a second component for installation on an interior surface of the door, a viewer that extends through an opening in the door, and a flexible connector that electrically couples the first component and the second component. In some instances, the first component may include an opening for the viewer, a camera, and an input device in substantial vertical alignment. The A/V device may further include a shutter that moves between a first position, in which the shutter is proximate to the viewer, and a second position, in which the shutter is not proximate the viewer. Additionally, the A/V device may include rings interposed between each of the first and second components and the door.

  • Patent number: 10844997
    Abstract: A device mounting assembly includes a baseplate and a support arm. The support arm may couple with a device. The support arm is pivotable with respect to the baseplate about the hinge to define a plurality of mounting assembly configurations. In at least one configuration, the support arm is located in at least one groove of a first surface on a first side of the baseplate.

For example, an A/V device may include a first component for installation on an exterior surface of a door, a second component for installation on an interior surface of the door, a viewer that extends through an opening in the door, and a flexible connector that electrically couples the first component and the second component. The A/V device may enable use of an existing hole in the door as part of a door viewer, while also providing the functionality of an A/V device. For example, the A/V device may be configured to receive an input using a button on the first component, generate image data using a camera on the first component, and send the image data to a network device.

  • Publication number: 20200090480
    Abstract: Security devices and associated methods have a housing, a camera with a field of view of a monitored area outside the housing, a microphone to sense audio from the monitored area, a speaker to generate sound audible to the monitored area, an illumination source to illuminate the monitored area, a communication module to communicate with a communication network, a motion sensor to detect motion within the monitored area, at least two removable battery casings, each configured via a release button to hold at least one battery within the housing, and a control circuit that, when the motion sensor detects motion, is operable to (a) activate the illumination source, (b) capture video and audio from the camera and the microphone, and (c) send the captured video and audio to a remote server via the communication module and the communication network.
