Various embodiments disclosed herein relate to doorbells. Certain embodiments relate to doorbell communities.
Doorbells can enable a person located outside of an entry point, such as a door, to alert a person inside of an entry point that someone outside would like to talk to someone inside. Doorbells sometimes include a button located near a door, such as a front door, side door, or back door of a home, office, dwelling, warehouse, building, or structure. Doorbells are sometimes used near a gate or some other entrance to a partially enclosed area. Pushing the doorbell sometimes causes a chime or other alerting sound to be emitted.
Data from multiple doorbells can be shared among a doorbell user group. Information regarding a visitor to a first building can be shared with other members of the doorbell user group. For example, a homeowner can share information from her doorbell with neighbors' remote computing devices via the doorbell user group even though the neighbors' remote computing devices are not configured to receive visitor alerts from the homeowner's doorbell each time the homeowner's doorbell detects a visitor (e.g., via motion detection or button press detection). Some embodiments include the homeowner (e.g., a user) choosing to send a first visit information (regarding a first visitor) to neighbor's remote computing devices and choosing not to send a second visit information (regarding a second visitor) to neighbor's remote computing devices. Thus, the system enables a user to selectively decide what visit information to share with members of the doorbell user group.
In some embodiments, the doorbell system can comprise a first remote computing device communicatively coupled to a first doorbell having a first camera. The method for using the doorbell system can comprise sending a first picture, taken by the first doorbell, of a first visitor to the first remote computing device.

In some embodiments, buttons include diverse means of selecting various options, features, and functions. Buttons can be selected by mouse clicks, keyboard commands, or touching a touch screen. Many embodiments include buttons that can be selected without touch screens.
In some embodiments, the user interface 240 includes a quality selection button, which can allow a user to select the quality and/or amount of the data transmitted from the doorbell 202 to the computing device 204 and/or from the computing device 204 to the doorbell 202.
In some embodiments, video can be sent to and/or received from the computing device 204 using video chat protocols such as FaceTime (by Apple Inc.) or Skype (by Microsoft Corporation). In some embodiments, these videos are played by videoconferencing apps on the computing device 204 instead of being played by the user interface 240.
The user interface 240 can include a termination button 276 to end communication between the doorbell 202 and the computing device 204. In some embodiments, the termination button 276 ends the ability of the person located near the doorbell 202 (i.e., the visitor) to hear and/or see the user of the computing device 204, but does not end the ability of the user of the computing device 204 to hear and/or see the person located near the doorbell 202.
In some embodiments, a button 276 is both an answer button (to accept a communication request from a visitor) and a termination button (to end communication between the doorbell 202 and the computing device 204). The button 276 can include the word “Answer” when the system is attempting to establish two-way communication between the visitor and the user. Selecting the button 276 when the system is attempting to establish two-way communication between the visitor and the user can start two-way communication. The button 276 can include the words “End Call” during two-way communication between the visitor and the user. Selecting the button 276 during two-way communication between the visitor and the user can terminate two-way communication. In some embodiments, terminating two-way communication still enables the user to see and hear the visitor. In some embodiments, terminating two-way communication causes the computing device 204 to stop showing video from the doorbell and to stop emitting sounds recorded by the doorbell.
In some embodiments, the user interface 240 opens as soon as the doorbell detects a visitor (e.g., senses indications of a visitor). Once the user interface 240 opens, the user can see and/or hear the visitor even before “answering” or otherwise accepting two-way communication, in several embodiments.
Some method embodiments include detecting a visitor with a doorbell. The methods can include causing the user interface to display on a remote computing device 204 due to the detection of the visitor (e.g., with or without user interaction). The methods can include displaying video from the doorbell and/or audio from the doorbell before the user accepts two-way communication with the visitor. The methods can include displaying video from the doorbell and/or audio from the doorbell before the user accepts the visitor's communication request. The methods can include the computing device simultaneously asking the user if the user wants to accept (e.g., answer) the communication request and displaying audio and/or video of the visitor. For example, in some embodiments, the user can see and hear the visitor via the doorbell before opening a means of two-way communication with the visitor.
In some embodiments, the software includes means to start the video feed on demand. For example, a user of the computing device might wonder what is happening near the doorbell 202. The user can open the software application on the computing device 204 and instruct the application to show live video and/or audio from the security device 202 even if no event near the doorbell 202 has triggered the communication.
In several embodiments, the security device 202 can be configured to record when the security device 202 detects movement and/or the presence of a person. The user of the computing device 204 can later review all video and/or audio records from when the security device 202 detected movement and/or the presence of a person.

In some embodiments, data captured by the doorbell and/or the computing device 204 (such as videos, pictures, and audio) is stored by another remote device such as the server 206. Cloud storage, enterprise storage, and/or networked enterprise storage can be used to store video, pictures, and/or audio from the doorbell system 200 or from any part of the doorbell system 200. The user can download and/or stream stored data and/or storage video, pictures, and/or audio. For example, a user can record visitors for a year and then later can review conversations with visitors from the last year. In some embodiments, remote storage, the server 206, the computing device 204, and/or the doorbell 202 can store information and statistics regarding visitors and usage.
A wireless network 308 can allow devices to wirelessly access the Internet. The doorbell 202 can access the Internet via the wireless network 308. The wireless network 308 can transmit data from the doorbell 202 to the Internet, which can transmit the data to remotely located computing devices 204. The Internet and wireless networks can transmit data from remotely located computing devices 204 to the doorbell 202. In some embodiments, a doorbell 202 connects to a home's WiFi.
As illustrated in
In some embodiments, the doorbell 202 can communicate (e.g., wirelessly 230) with a television 306, which can be a smart television. Users can view the television 306 to see a visitor and/or talk with the visitor.
The doorbell 202 can include one or more heating elements 508 configured to regulate the temperature of the doorbell 202. For example, doorbells 202 can be used in very cold environments, such as in Alaska. The heating element 508 can be used in various methods to protect temperature sensitive portions of the doorbell 202 from cold weather.
While protecting the doorbell 202 from cold weather can be important in some embodiments, protecting visitors from excessive heat can also be important in some embodiments. Excessive heat could burn visitors as they “ring” the doorbell (e.g., press the doorbell button 212 shown in
Several embodiments can be configured for 9 to 40 volts alternating current (“VAC”) and/or 9 to 40 volts direct current (“VDC”). Some embodiments convert input electricity into direct current (DC), such as 12 VDC. Several embodiments include a converter 494 for power conversion (e.g., converting electrical energy from one form to another). The converter 494 can convert input power (e.g., from wiring in a building) to a suitable power form for the doorbell 202. The power conversion can convert between AC and DC, change the voltage, and/or change the frequency. The converter 494 can include a transformer and/or a voltage regulator. In several embodiments, the converter 494 can include an AC to DC converter, a DC to DC converter, a voltage stabilizer, a linear regulator, a surge protector, a rectifier, a power supply unit, a switch, an inverter, and/or a voltage converter. In some embodiments, the converter 494 converts 50 Hertz (“Hz”) power into 60 Hz power.
The electrical components of the doorbell 202 (e.g., the camera assembly 208, the memory 492, the chip 480, the speaker 488, the converter 494, the microphone 484, the lights 458, the rectifier 524, the proximity sensor 500, the communication module 504, the heating element 508, the electrical connectors 510, the thermometer 512, the image analysis system 520, and the battery 642) can be electrically coupled to a printed circuit board (“PCB”) 516 and can receive electrical power from the PCB 516.

Systems with Multiple Doorbells
Multiple doorbells can share data to “watch” over a neighborhood by letting people connect with neighbors and share information regarding suspicious visitors. The shared information can include pictures of visitors and the time of suspicious activity. As a result, sharing data between multiple doorbell users can help reduce crime and theft in neighborhoods around the world. Suspicious activity can be “tagged” and shared with members of a user group (e.g., a group of neighbors). The shared data can include photos and information regarding suspicious visitors. The information can include written descriptions, recorded descriptions, and videos. For example, a first doorbell can take a picture of a visitor. The doorbell can send the picture to a remote computing device. A user of the remote computing device can see the visitor. Then, the user can enter information regarding the suspicious visitor into the remote computing device. The doorbell system can then share the information and the picture of the visitor with a user group, which can include other doorbell users.
An administrator of the user group can be a “master user” who has the ability to add other users to the user group. One way of adding users to a user group is to enter email addresses of prospective users into a remote computing device (e.g., into an “app” running on the remote computing device). This app can be the same app used by the administrator to configure her doorbell.
In a user group section (e.g., a “neighborhood section”) of the app, a user can see who else is in her neighborhood. In some embodiments, the home locations of prospective or current users are displayed on a map. Selecting prospective users can enable the administrator to add new users to the user group.
When a user thinks a visitor is suspicious, the user can report the visitor and the nature of the suspicious activity to the user group. Thus, the user can enter the visitor into an activity log such that the event has a “suspicious” tag. The event can then be shared with the other users via email, text message, a push notifications, or any suitable means. The event can be recorded in a user group activity list, which in some embodiments, is only visible to members of the user group (or at least is not visible to the general public). The event can also be listed in a history of events reported by a specific individual. Thus, users can see events they reported, and users can see events reported by all members of a user group.
Each event can include an icon. Selecting the icon can cause the event to be shared with the user group. In some embodiments, icons are shown on a map that is displayed on a remote computing device. In this manner, users can see where suspicious visitors have been reported by members of the user group, and in some embodiments, by members of other user groups. In some embodiments, a user group is limited to a particular neighborhood. In other embodiments, user groups are not limited to a particular neighborhood.
Visitor data from a user (or from a user group) can be shared with law enforcement (e.g., police officers) or other safety personnel to help keep neighborhoods safe. A suspicious event reported by a first user can be shared with a second user. The second user can then share the event with law enforcement. In some embodiments, the user who reports the event to the user group also reports the event to law enforcement (e.g., by selecting a button in the app).
The app can include a “distress button” configured to enable a user to alert law enforcement and user group members that something is wrong. Pressing the button on a remote computing device can cause a doorbell system to send a push notification to other users to notify them that help is needed. The push notification can also communicate the nature of the event and can enable users to see a picture of the visitor causing the trouble.
A first doorbell 202a can send a visitor notification (e.g., an alert as shown in
Each of the doorbells 202a, 202b, 202c illustrated in
The first remote computing device 204a can be used to categorize the visitor. For example, the user of the first remote computing device can indicate whether the first visitor 388a is a salesperson, a fundraiser, or a potential criminal. The first remote computing device 204a can share this categorization with other members of the user group, which can include users of the remote computing devices 204a, 204b, 204c.
A first user of the first remote computing device 204a (e.g., the owner of the first doorbell 202a) can create a user group. The user group can include the first user of the first remote computing device 204a and a second user of a second remote computing device 204b. Note that in
Embodiments can also include sharing the first picture of the first visitor 388a with the user group. The sharing of the first picture of the first visitor 388a with the user group can be in response to the first trait of the first visitor 388a. For example, the first trait can be that the first visitor 388a is acting suspiciously by peaking over fences or looking through windows.
Several embodiments include sending the first trait and the first picture of the first visitor 388a to a database 390 configured to provide information regarding the first visitor 388a to the user group. The first doorbell 202a can also determine a time at which the first visitor 388a visited the first doorbell 202a. A portion of the doorbell system 386 can provide this time to the database 390.
Some embodiments include receiving data with the first remote computing device 204a regarding a second doorbell 202b that comprises a second camera and regarding a third doorbell 202c that comprises a third camera. As illustrated in
Each doorbell 202a, 202b, and 202c can include a camera assembly 208 (labeled in
There are many ways to create user groups. In some embodiments, creating a user group comprises adding a first email address and a second email address to a database. The first email address can be associated with the first doorbell 202a. The second email address can be associated with a second doorbell 202b. In some embodiments, a first user of a first doorbell 202a sends an invitation to join a doorbell user group to a second user of a second doorbell 202b. The first user can send the invitation via a first remote computing device 204a (that is authorized to configure the first doorbell 202a) to a second remote computing device 204b (that is authorized to configure the second doorbell 202b). The second user can then accept or decline the invitation via the second remote computing device 204b. In some embodiments, the second user accepts or declines the invitation to join the doorbell user group at least partially in response to seeing the location of the first doorbell 202a on the display of the second computing device 204b. For example, if the first and second users are neighbors, then the second user could be more likely to accept the invitation than if the first and second users live much farther away from each other.
Not all members of a doorbell user group necessarily have a doorbell. Members of the user group who have not yet purchased a doorbell with a camera can still receive visitor information, including visitor pictures, on their remote computing devices. For example, a picture taken by the first doorbell 202a can be sent to the remote computing devices of people who have not purchased a doorbell with a camera.
Several embodiments include selecting a first button 394 on the display of the first remote computing device 204a to alert law enforcement and/or to alert the user group. The button 394 can be a portion of the graphical user interface of an app.
A first user can also join a user group that was previously created by another user. This first user can couple a first doorbell having a first camera to a first building; configure the first doorbell to wirelessly communicate with a first remote computing device; and/or join a user group via the first remote computing device. This user group can comprise a second user of a second doorbell having a second camera and a third user of a third doorbell having a third camera. The second doorbell can be configured to wirelessly communicate with a second remote computing device. This first user can receive a first picture and a first trait of a first visitor with the first remote computing device. This first picture could have been taken previously by the second doorbell or the third doorbell. This first user can take a second picture of a second visitor with the first doorbell; and/or send the second picture of the second visitor to the user group such that the second remote computing device can display the second picture. This first user can detect a second visitor with the first doorbell. This first user can determine that the second visitor is the first visitor by a portion of the doorbell system analyzing the first picture from the second doorbell or the third doorbell. This analysis can include the doorbell system comparing the first picture to the second picture. Embodiments can also include alerting a first user of the first doorbell that the second visitor is the first visitor (i.e., the first visitor is the same person as the second visitor).
In contrast,
In some embodiments, a homeowner can share information from her doorbell with neighbors' remote computing devices via the doorbell user group 400 (shown in
In contrast, the configuration illustrated in
For example, as shown in
In contrast, the system shown in
Thus, many embodiments enable members of a user group to share visitor information with each other without granting doorbell control to members of the user group. For example, a first user can alter at least one setting (e.g., a chime tone, a greeting, a silent mode, on-demand video modes) of her doorbell but typically cannot alter settings of neighbors' doorbells (e.g., of other doorbells in the user group). These embodiments enable a first user to determine what visitor pictures and information her doorbell shares with a user group.
The doorbell system 408 can include a first remote computing device 204a communicatively coupled to a first doorbell 202a that has a first camera 208 (labeled in
The first doorbell 202a is not communicatively coupled to the second remote computing device 204b even though the second remote computing device 204b can receive a picture taken by the first doorbell 202a from at least a portion of the user group 400. This way, the second remote computing device 204b can receive information regarding a visitor detected by the first doorbell 202a, but the second remote computing device 204b cannot alter settings of the first doorbell 202a, initiate on-demand videos from the first doorbell 202a, or talk with the first visitor 402a via the first doorbell 202a.
Embodiments can include creating a doorbell user group 400 comprising a first user of the first remote computing device 204a and a second user of the second remote computing device 204b, which is communicatively coupled to a second doorbell 202b (as shown by the arrow) but is not communicatively coupled to the first doorbell 202a. The remote computing devices 204a, 204b, 204c can be communicatively coupled with the user group 400 to enable sharing visitor information (e.g., pictures, audio files, visitor descriptions) detected by one of the doorbells 202a, 202b, 202c (and/or recorded by one of the remote computing devices 204a, 204b, 204c) with all of the remote computing devices 204a, 204b, 204c communicatively coupled with the user group 400. This way, visitor information can be shared with members of the user group 400 without users being concerned that other members of the user group 400 might hear private visitor conversations and/or see confidential visitors. Embodiments can enable a user to control what visitor information members of the user group receive from the user's doorbell.
Embodiments can include sharing the first picture 410 of the first visitor 402a with the doorbell user group 400 such that the second remote computing device 204b receives the first picture 410 taken by the first doorbell 202a. Sharing the first picture 410 with the doorbell user group 400 can require the user of the first remote computing device 204a to authorize sharing the first picture (and/or other information regarding the first visitor 402a) with the user group 400. As illustrated in
The visitors 402a, 402b, 402c can be the same person. For example, a solicitor knocking on doors of buildings 300a, 300b, 300c in a neighborhood can be detected by motion sensors of many doorbells 202a, 202b, 202c. In some cases, visitors 402b, 402c can be different people.
In some embodiments, the doorbell 202a is connected to the first wireless 308a, which connects to the Internet and/or to a cellular network to enable the first doorbell 202a to be communicatively coupled to the first remote computing device 204a even when the first remote computing device 204a is many miles away from the first building 300a. In some cases, when the first remote computing device 204a is located within range of the first wireless network 308a (e.g., inside the first building 300a), the first wireless network 308a can directly communicatively couple the first doorbell 202a to the first remote computing device 204b. The second building 300b can include a second wireless network 308b, which can communicatively couple the second doorbell 202b to the second remote computing device 204b. The third building 300c, to which the third doorbell 202c can be mechanically coupled, can include a third wireless network 308c.
Several embodiments include configuring the first doorbell 202a to wirelessly communicate with the first remote computing device 204a. Some embodiments include joining, by the first remote computing device 204a, a doorbell user group 400 that comprises a second user of the second doorbell 202b having a second camera coupled to the second building 300b. The doorbell user group 400 can also include a third user of a third doorbell 202c having a third camera coupled to the third building 300c. The second doorbell 202b can be configured to wirelessly communicate with the second remote computing device 204b.
Some embodiments include receiving, by the first remote computing device 204a, a first visitor picture 410 that was taken by the second doorbell 202b or the third doorbell 202c. For example, arrow 416 shows how the first visitor picture 410 from the second doorbell 202b can be sent to the second remote computing device 204b and/or to the user group 400 (in some cases without passing through the second remote computing device 204b). Arrow 418 represents that the second remote computing device 204b can send the first picture 410 to the user group 400 and/or can send permission for members of the user group 400 to view the first picture 410 to the user group 400. Arrow 420 represents how the user group 400 can send the first picture 410 to the first remote computing device 204a and/or to the third remote computing device 204c.
As used herein, “user groups” often do not include humans, but instead include devices owned by various humans. For example, a neighborhood association may decide to purchase doorbells 202a, 202b, 202c. Creating a doorbell user group can include communicatively coupling the doorbells 202a, 202b, 202c and the remote computing devices 204a, 204b, 204c as shown in
Referring now to
Several embodiments include taking a second visitor picture 412, by the first doorbell 202a, and sending the second visitor picture 412 to the doorbell user group 400 such that the second remote computing device 204b and the third remote computing device 204c can display the second visitor picture 412 even though the second remote computing device 204b and the third remote computing device 204c are not communicatively coupled to the first doorbell 202a The doorbell user group 400 can comprise a database 390 that includes many visitor pictures taken by more doorbells that are communicatively coupled to the doorbell user group 400. The database 390 can include a first visitor picture 410 taken by the second doorbell 202b of the second building 300b. The first doorbell 202a of the first building 300a can take a second visitor picture 412. At least a portion of the doorbell system 408 can determine that the first visitor picture 410 and the second visitor 412 picture show a visitor (i.e., show the same person). Embodiments can include labeling the visitor with solicitor information such that members of the doorbell user group 400 can see the first visitor picture 410 associated with the solicitor information. For example, the remote computing devices 204a, 204b, 204c can download the first visitor picture 410 (or another visitor picture) and information regarding the visitor's solicitation behavior. The remote computing devices 204a, 204b, 204c can display the solicitor information along with the picture of the solicitor.
Users can type information regarding visitors into their remote computing devices 204a, 204b, 204c. The user group 400 can then share this information with members of the user group 400. Some embodiments include alerting the members regarding at least a portion of the solicitor information. This alert 422 can include a picture of the solicitor and other information regarding the solicitor. Several embodiments include receiving a solicitor alert 422 in response to the second doorbell 202b of the second building 300b and the third doorbell 202c of the third building 300c detecting a visitor (e.g., detecting the same person within a predetermined time, which can be within 24 hours).
The alerts 422 shown in
A doorbell system 408 can comprise a first doorbell 202a having a first camera coupled to a first building 300a, wherein the first doorbell 202a is communicatively coupled to a first remote computing device 204a; a second doorbell 202b having a second camera coupled to a second building 300b, wherein the second doorbell 202b is communicatively coupled to a second remote computing device 204b; and a doorbell user group 400 comprising a database 390 having images 410, 412 taken by the first camera and the second camera. The doorbell user group 400 can be communicatively coupled to the first remote computing device 204a and the second remote computing device 204b.
In several embodiments, the first doorbell 202a is not communicatively coupled to the second remote computing device 204b, and the second doorbell 202b is not communicatively coupled to the first remote computing device 204a while the system 408 is configured such that the first remote computing device 204a receives a first visitor picture 410 taken by the second doorbell 202b via the doorbell user group 400. A second visitor picture 412 can be taken by the first doorbell 202a and displayed by the second remote computing device 204b.
The doorbell system 408 can also include a remote sensor 424 configured to monitor the first building 300a and detect an unauthorized building intrusion. The doorbell system 408 can include at least one alert 422 sent to the doorbell user group 400 in response to the remote sensor 424 detecting the unauthorized building intrusion.
Several embodiments include a solicitor alert sent to the doorbell user group 400 in response to a visitor being detected by the first doorbell 202a at the first building 300a and by the second doorbell 202b at the second building 300b.
Information collected from the doorbells 202a, 202b, 202c can be analyzed (e.g., by the system). An alert 422 can be send to remote computing devices 204a, 204c in response to analytics based on the collected information.
Aggregated doorbell information can be analyzed to look for trends and abnormal behaviors that might be correlated with crime or other unwanted behavior. Analytics can include the number of visits or visitors to a particular building, group of buildings, or area. For example, a high number of unique visitors could suggest an illegal business is being operated out of a home (e.g., drug dealing). Analytics can also evaluate how long visitors wait at a door before leaving. In some cases, analytics include determining whether a person with a criminal history or arrest warrant is contacting more than one building in an area within a predetermined time.
Several embodiments include taking, by the second doorbell 202b, a first visitor picture 410; sending, by the second doorbell 202b, the first visitor picture to the user group; and comparing, by the user group 400, the first visitor picture 410 to criminal pictures of a database 390. A moderator (e.g., a person who acts as an administrator of the user group 400) can compare visitor pictures to determine if the pictures show the same person (e.g., a solicitor) or show a criminal. Some embodiments use computer image recognition to compare images.
The first building 300a can include an alarm 434 that can be located remotely relative to the first doorbell 202a. In some embodiments, the doorbell 202a is communicatively coupled to the alarm 434. The alarm 434 can include a speaker and electronics configured to enable the speaker to emit an alarm sound.
A button on the user interface of the first remote computing device 204a can enable a user to active the alarm 434. In response to a signal from the remote sensor 424, the system 408 can enter an Alarm State, which can include recording, by the first doorbell 202a, a video; blinking a light 216, 220 (shown in
Each member of the user group 400 can choose which members receive alerts, visitor pictures, and visitor information from the choosing member. This approach enables sub-groups within a larger user group.
