Abstract: Various arrangements are detailed herein related to managing video recording. A system can include a network-enabled video camera that captures a video stream of a location and streams the video stream to a cloud-based home assistant integration platform. The system can include a home assistant device comprising a microphone and wireless network interface, the home assistant device configured to receive, via the microphone, a spoken command that requests video, captured by the network-enabled video camera, be recorded. The cloud-based home assistant integration platform may be configured to analyze the video stream captured using the network-enabled video camera to determine an identity of the user. The platform may be further configured to store a portion of the video stream linked to a user account of the user based on the spoken command and the identity of the user.

Abstract: Methods, devices, systems, and means for video integration with a home assistant device are described herein. The home assistant device interacts with a person in a video stream by capturing, using a network-enabled outdoor video camera, a video stream of an outdoor location of a premises at which the person is present and analyzing the person appearing in the captured video stream to determine an identity of the person. Based on determining the identity of the person, the home assistant device announces a presence of the person that is outdoors and outputs instructions to the person.

Abstract: The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for presenting smart home information. In one aspect, a method includes: (1) determining that a first set of smart devices correspond to a first space of a plurality of spaces of a dwelling; (2) displaying a first user interface including: (a) displaying a first interface section corresponding to the first space; and (b) displaying, within the first interface section, a plurality of user interface objects corresponding to the first set of smart devices, where each user interface object of the plurality of user interface objects corresponds to a respective smart device of the first set of smart devices; (3) detecting a user selection of a particular user interface object; and (4) in response to detecting the user selection of the particular user interface object, displaying a second user interface that includes additional information regarding the corresponding smart device.

Abstract: Various arrangements are detailed herein related to modifying a shopping list using a home assistant device and an integrated video service. A network-enabled video camera may be used to capture a video stream of a location at which a user is present. A home assistant device may receive a spoken command that requests an item be added to a shopping list. The video stream captured using the network-enabled video camera may be analyzed to determine an identity of the user. A shopping list to modify may be determined based on the identity of the user. The determined shopping list may then be modified to indicate the item requested in the spoken command.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for automatic security system mode selection. A set of signals may be received from sensors distributed in an environment with a security system. The security system may be in a first mode. An occupancy model may be received. An occupancy estimate may be generated for the environment based on the set of signals from the sensors and the occupancy model. Mode rules may be received. The mode rules associate occupancy estimates with modes of the security system. A second mode for the security system may be determined based on the occupancy estimate and mode rules. The second mode may be different from the first mode. The mode of the security system may be automatically changed from the first mode to the second mode.

Abstract: Various arrangements are detailed herein related to managing scheduled events using a home assistant and an integrated video service. Using a network-enabled video camera, a video stream of a location may be captured. The video stream captured may be used to determine an identity of a user present at the location. In response to identifying the identity of the user, access to a cloud-based calendar account for the user may be determined to be authorized. The cloud-based calendar account linked with the user may be accessed. A next calendar event mapped to the cloud-based calendar account that is scheduled to occur within a threshold time duration may be determined. A description linked with the next calendar event may be accessed. A network-enabled smart home assistant device may be used to synthesize speech to announce details related to the next event.
