There exists a need for systems, devices, and methods that extend the reach and capabilities of premises security and automation systems without requiring large numbers of additional sensors and devices to be added to the systems, and without requiring extensive modifications to the system.
Each patent, patent application, and/or publication mentioned in this specification is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety to the same extent as if each individual patent, patent application, and/or publication was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference.
The present invention relates generally to systems and methods for extending the capabilities of a premises automation and security system. More particularly, it relates to systems and methods for providing a mobile premises device or platform configured to autonomously traverse or patrol the premises and capture data (e.g., audio, video, etc.) in response to events and in accordance with rules corresponding to the premises.
A system including a drone or unmanned vehicle configured to perform surveillance of a premises. The drone surveillance includes autonomous navigation and/or remote or optional piloting around the premises. The drone includes a controller coupled to a plurality of sensors configured to collect drone data and security data at the premises, wherein the controller is configured to generate control data for the drone and the premises using the drone data and the security data. A remote device coupled to the drone includes a user interface configured to present the drone data, the security data, and/or the control data.
Although this detailed description contains many specifics for the purposes of illustration, anyone of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that many variations and alterations to the following details are within the scope of the invention. Thus, the following illustrative embodiments of the invention are set forth without any loss of generality to, and without imposing limitations upon, the claimed invention. Note that whenever the same reference numeral is repeated with respect to different figures, it refers to the corresponding structure in each such figure.
Generally, embodiments include a premises surveillance system comprising a drone. In this example, the premises (e.g., a commercial, industrial, building, facility, interior areas, exterior areas, etc.) includes internal and/or external areas subject to surveillance. The buildings can be of any configuration, including open spaces such as a warehouse, to compartmentalized facilities such as rooms or offices. The surveillance system includes one or more drones and one or more drone stations. As used herein, a “drone” includes unmanned vehicles, unmanned autonomous vehicles, autonomous vehicles, remotely controlled vehicles, autonomous/remotely controlled vehicles, radio-controlled vehicles, and optionally-controlled vehicles, but may not be so limited. The drone may be programmed in advance using weigh points and simultaneously be controlled with a radio control transmitter so that real time manipulation and control of the drone may occur based on particular operation of the drone that is desired.
The system of an embodiment also includes drone stations configured to be bases and/or charging stations for one or more of drones. The system also includes a gateway and/or a server that is in communication with the drones via one or more data or communication networks (e.g., broadband, cellular, WiFi, etc.) as described in detail herein. The gateway/server receives signals from the drones, and the signals include sensor or surveillance data as well as drone data. The gateway of an embodiment includes the drone base station but is not so limited.
The data or communication network of an embodiment includes any combination of wired and/or wireless channels capable of carrying data traffic, and may span multiple carriers, and a wide geography. In one embodiment, the data network includes a broadband network such as the Internet. In another embodiment, the data network may include one or more wireless links, and may include a wireless data network (e.g., WiFi, cellular network, etc.). The network of an embodiment includes additional components (e.g., access points, routers, switches, DSL modems, etc.) interconnecting the server with the data network, but is not so limited.
The drones can carry one or more sensors/detectors comprising numerous different types of sensor/detectors. One example sensor type includes a video camera that captures camera or video data and provides the captured data (e.g., recorded, live, etc.) to the gateway/server. Examples of other types of sensors include microphones to receive or detect audio data. Other sensors can include but are not limited to sensors to capture motion, vibration, pressure, and heat, to name a few, in an appropriate combination to detect a true condition at a facility. The sensors may communicate wirelessly to the gateway/server or communicate through an on-board computer on the drone. In general, sensors capture data (e.g., audio, video, environmental, data of drone systems/subsystems, etc.) and send signals to the gateway/server. Based on the information received from the onboard sensors, the gateway/server determines whether to trigger and/or send alarm messages to the remote server or device.
An example drone of an embodiment includes at least one processor coupled to at least one memory device. The drone also includes one or more sensors and one or more interfaces to receive sensor data from the sensors. The drone also includes propulsion control electronics and one or more electric motors to control one or more drive devices (e.g., propellers, wheels, tracks, rudders, etc.). The drone system electronics are responsive to signals received by the processor from the gateway/server.
When inside of a facility, the drone is guided through corridors or other areas to reach the location of interest under operator control and/or autonomously by following a programmed route and applying guidance processing to allow the drone to follow the pattern, i.e., without an operator at security monitoring station guiding all of the drone movements.
The drone is launched, and as the drone flies the programmed pattern the onboard sensors collect sensor data. The gateway/server and/or a central monitoring station receives signals from various sensors (e.g., camera, microphone, etc.) on the drones. The server applies analytics to the sensor data by comparing for instance, current images captured by the drone at a particular location to stored images previously taken at the same location to detect features in the current images that are different than expected based on the stored images.
In the case where an unacceptable level of feature differences is detected that could be an indication of detected movement of a person or thing, within the field of view of the images, the analytics outputs an indication. In the case where the gateway/server performs the processing, the gateway/server notifies the monitoring station or where the monitor station is performing the processing, monitoring station alerts the operator. The processing upon detection of an unacceptable level of feature differences, modifies the drone navigation pattern. If intrusion is detected by the drone and/or other sensors within a facility, such as a window being opened or a glass break detector or contact switch being asserted on an intrusion detection system, the drone can be immediately guided (e.g., autonomously, by the operator, etc.) to that location providing similar surveillance until the incident is evaluated and handled.
When the drone is in autonomous mode, the modified pattern can be accomplished by the gateway/server producing a new route taking into consideration results of analytics processing, and reprogramming the drone with the new route. Alternatively, the gateway/server can transfer control of the drone to an operator. When the drone is initially under operator control, the analytics produce messages sent to a display (not shown) within view of the operator to assist the operator in guiding the drone and thus apply a new route. The new route can be varied including causing the drone to hold station or position about that location providing continuous video surveillance or data collection back to the monitoring station or to follow a path determined by the analytics processing.
Guidance within or outside of a building can be accomplished by several techniques. For example, when outside of a building, guidance can be accomplished by global position system (GPS) tracking. Alternative techniques include an operator at the monitoring facility manually controlling the drone to a specific location or having the drone hover at the location. Within a building guidance can be accomplished by feature recognition to follow a preprogrammed map of the interior of the building. Another type of navigation is a map based type navigation that includes a database that stores images of landmarks, descriptions of items and navigation instructions. A third type of navigation is by radio frequency (RF) beacons being deployed within the facility, sending out RF signals that a guidance system on board the drone captures and uses to apply a triangulation algorithm to figure out current location. When traversing internal areas of the premises, embodiments use one or more guidance techniques (e.g., RF-based, sonar, optical, beacon, etc.), but are not so limited.
The drone of an embodiment includes collision or crash avoidance systems that are used during tours to detect and record any physical objects that disrupt the ability of the drone to follow a tour route plan. These crash avoidance systems determine proximity to nearby objects and are used with drone navigation to navigate around the object and return to a preprogrammed path or route but are not so limited.
A drone route uses a route plan that includes a navigation map structure that is generated and includes waypoints and paths between a starting waypoint and an ending waypoint. When establishing a route plan, programmable waypoints are placed (e.g., at location points, objects, locations, etc.) along a path determined by the plan that a drone will navigate to in sequential order while using crash avoidance capability to move along safely and intact. The waypoints of an embodiment are stored in onboard memory but are not so limited. In an alternative embodiment, waypoints are stored on the gateway/server and delivered to the drone during operation. The waypoints include small devices that are programmable and include RF transmitter devices (e.g., RFID, beacon, etc.) or low power RF transmitters that continually broadcast its identity and/or placement and which are placed at locations where the asset being protected is located and at all permitted points of entry to the protected area.
The route plan is a predetermine route that is provided to and/or programmed into the drone and defined by the use of the waypoints as described herein. The drone recognizes the existence of the waypoints and determines or calculates the shortest path to and between waypoints. Using crash avoidance while traveling to a waypoint, the route plan is established, recorded, and presented to an operator/user via a graphical user interface. The operator defines a route schedule through the user interface. When conducting the tour, the drone uses crash avoidance to determine and report any deviations from the already determined route plan. The drone captures images of the deviation and reports them as troubles during the premises disarmed period or alarm during the premises armed period.
The drone navigates using the waypoints and processing captured signals from the various waypoints to recognize its current position (e.g. stairs, exits, doors, corridors, etc.) within a facility. The drone stores the route plan that takes into consideration the relevant building or environment. Having this information, the drone correlates captured signals to features in the route plan. By correlating the captured signals to the features in the route plan, the drone can determine its current waypoint, is provided information on that waypoint, and can navigate to a subsequent waypoint based on the route plan. The drone may incorporate the functionality of a compass, GPS, and/or other navigation element or system to assist in navigation. In some implementations, the processing, rather than be performed by the drone, is performed by the gateway and/or the server.
The drone of an embodiment includes a triggered alarm response for responding to abnormal or alarm situations detected in/around the premises. On detecting or receiving any alarm or trouble that is initiated by an interconnected security system or as a result of drone sensors, the drone uses the route plan and crash avoidance to navigate to the waypoint closest to the reported point of protection that triggered the alarm or trouble to capture and transmit video images, sound, and/or environmental data. This data is stored and/or relayed to the command center and/or monitoring center.
The system includes a docking or charging station configured to receive or house the drone and recharge the drone power source as needed. During a surveillance route or tour, the drone will continually make the rounds of this tour or can be programmed to conduct another tour. When the drone is not touring, the drone returns to the drone charging station for recharging of its batteries, or otherwise refueling. Alternatively, the drone receives a signal to return to base. The signal can originate from the operator or the gateway/server, a remote client device, and/or the drone itself, as the drone could be monitoring its fuel supply or level of remaining battery charge.
Drones employed herein are selected according to the type and nature of the premises and/or surveillance. For example, when the drones are employed to hover, a helicopter-type aircraft drone might be preferable. In addition, when deployed outdoors of the premises, the drones in general can be relatively large in comparison to those employed inside the premises. Moreover, a drone employed within a premises that has wide open spaces can be in general larger than one employed in a premises that has many rooms and corridors. In addition, when used exclusively outside the drone can be powered electrically (e.g., fuel cell and/or batteries) or with a hydrocarbon (e.g., gas or gasoline engine), whereas inside the drone should be powered electrically (e.g., fuel cell and/or batteries).

The PAD of an embodiment generally includes a frame, electronics components (e.g., communication components, navigation components, sensors, sensor suite, etc.), propulsion, and power source. The PAD can include an electronics case for housing the PAD components, and the electronics case includes a weatherized enclosure. Electronics components within the electronics case may be secured to the electronics case. The frame provides mounting points for attaching components inside and outside of the electronics case.
The PAD as described in detail herein is configured to be autonomous, which includes autonomous or remotely controlled operation as a component of a premises system like a premises automation or security system described in detail herein. When configured as a component of a premises automation or security system (referred to herein as the “automation system”), PAD operation is at least partially under control of automations and schedules in the automation system. The automations and schedules comprise rules executing or running one or more of locally in electronic components of the PAD, in premises equipment, and remotely in components of the server environment, as described in detail herein. In certain embodiments in which the PAD includes the rules engine hosting the rules, the PAD is configured to include the automation system and rules engine so that the PAD is configured as the gateway or virtual hub as described in detail herein. In various alternative embodiments, the rules are distributed among some combination of one or more of the PAD, the premises equipment, and the server environment.
The PAD is configured for autonomous operations in which it is triggered or activated by a system event or schedule, and for remote controlled operations. Operations of the PAD are controlled via a rules engine that is hosted at least one of in the electronic components of the PAD, hosted in premises equipment (e.g., CPE, etc.), hosted in the server environment, and distributed among components of the PAD, the premises equipment (e.g., CPE, etc.), and the server environment, as described in detail herein. The rules engine includes rules for controlling PAD activity (e.g., ‘if <type> sensor goes to <state>, and <system state>, then, go<location> and perform <operation>’, ‘if <time>, then, go<location> and perform <operation>’, etc.). Triggering events include for example, but are not limited to, at least one of a pre-specified time, an event detected by premises sensors and/or network devices (e.g., sensor event, door opens, motion, glass breaks, broadband connection fails, etc.), an event detected at on-board PAD sensors and/or network devices (e.g., sensor event, light, motion, sound, heat, etc.), external system data or alerts (e.g., weather alerts, off-premises alert at an adjacent premises, etc.), and the like. In this manner, the rules are configured to associate sensors or triggers with specific locations of the premises, thereby enabling the PAD to deploy to any of these locations in response to a trigger being received.
As an example of the PAD operating under system automations, a premises sensor detects motion, and the PAD is deployed to a location of the sensor to determine the source of motion using the on-board sensor suite. In another example, motion is detected in a family room of the premises while the premises security system is in an “armed away” state, and this motion triggers the PAD to deploy to the family room and pan the room with on-board camera(s) to capture video of the area. In yet another example, the PAD acts as a virtual “watch dog” and automatically deploys to areas of the premises at which activity is detected in order to capture data of the activity. More particularly, a presence is detected (e.g., motion detector, video detector, door chime, etc.) at an exterior door, and this presence triggers the PAD to deploy to the exterior side of the door and stream a live video feed of the area adjacent the door to client devices (e.g., remote client devices, smart phones, local touchscreens, etc.).
In an example under which the PAD has scheduled operation, the PAD is deployed to one or more regions inside/outside of the premises according to a schedule (e.g., at 3 PM every day the PAD is deployed to the back yard and captures video of regions of the back yard; at 10 AM every day the PAD is deployed on a patrol of interior regions of the premises and captures sensor data of the areas of the premises; at 1 PM every day the PAD is deployed to capture images or video in a vicinity of all doors and windows to verify security of the premises; during evening hours the PAD is deployed according to a regular schedule to “patrol” areas outside the premises; etc.). Furthermore, a user can remotely command or control the PAD from a remote client device in order to check on particular activities or areas of the premises (e.g., user takes control of PAD after children return from school to check on activities of children at the premises, etc.).
Generally, PAD deployments involve the PAD being deployed in response to an event detected at the premises and/or in accordance with a scheduled deployment. When deployed, the PAD departs a current location (e.g., from a docking station, from a current deployment, etc.) and traverses a route in/around the premises. The PAD route includes any route to or through an environment accessible by the PAD, and may be one or more of a free-style route dynamically determined by the PAD, a regular route periodically traversed by the PAD in order to gather sensor data in regions of the premises, a specific route designated for a particular purpose, and a route directed from a remote client device. For example, if unexpected activity is detected by a premises sensor, the PAD is dispatched to the vicinity of the detected activity via a programmed route or via autonomous navigation by the PAD.
The PAD uses route information to control deployment operations in/around/through the premises. The route information of an embodiment is received from one or more of on-board components, remote components (e.g., server environment, CPE, etc.), and a remote client device. In various embodiments, the route information may be stored in on-board PAD memory. The route information may be created autonomously or provided by an individual operating the PAD. The route information includes location data of at least one of a destination and a route, and the location information comprises one or more of coordinates, PAD altitude, PAD orientation, PAD velocity, a proximity sensor using active or passive sensors, a beacon technology (e.g. BLE or WiFi beacons), and the like. The PAD navigation system or component uses the route information during the deployment to navigate the PAD along a route and/or to a destination. The PAD on-board components continuously determine the position of the PAD based on route information, premises characteristics detected by on-board sensors, and signals received from external devices or systems.
As an example the PAD determines and/or supplements data of its location based on WiFi signals and/or beacon or senor signals or data at the premises. The PAD is configured to compare the signal strength of one or more WiFi and/or beacon or sensor signals. The signal strength may be indicative of the distance between the PAD and the corresponding WiFi/sensor device. If numerous WIFI and/or sensor devices with known locations are present, the PAD may be able to accurately triangulate its location based only on these external signals. The PAD may also use the external system location data along with other positioning system information to triangulate its position, creating a dataset of location environment that synthesizes data from these various sensors to establish a method of relative navigation.
Data of the external devices or systems in the premises may be used to correct any errors detected in the navigation source information as the PAD traverses the route. For example, this locally-derived location information may be used to determine an offset of the actual location determined from the navigation information provided. The offset when available is then applied by the PAD navigation component(s) to future location information used in PAD navigation.
Data collected by the PAD during deployments in and adjacent to the premises includes at least one of data from all on-board sensors and data from premises sensors and network devices. The PAD is configured to manage collected data, and data management includes storing all or portions of the data locally in on-board memory, live streaming all or portions of the data to at least one of CPE and server environment components, and post-event and/or post-deployment streaming or downloading of all or portions of the data to at least one of CPE and server environment components.
The power source is configured to store energy for powering the PAD. In various embodiments, the source is a battery (e.g., lithium-ion battery) but is not so limited. The battery power source may be augmented or replaced by a fuel cell, solar unit, laser powering system, and/or other remote charging methodology. In some embodiments, the battery may be charged using inductive charging methods. Any power source providing sufficient power for the PAD may be used, and it should be appreciated that a power source with a high energy to weight ratio may improve operating time of the PAD.
The PAD processor includes one or more processors and/or coprocessors coupled or connected to electronic components of the PAD and configured to control operation of various systems and computer applications on the PAD. The processor is configured to process data of the PAD and exchange data among on-board and remote PAD components. The processor may receive data from one or more components and format the data for use by at least one other component. The processor comprises a processor architecture that includes at least one of a stand-alone processor, a co-processor, and a shared processor integral with another electronic component, such as, for example, a navigation module or other electronic components.
The PAD on-board memory is configured to store data received or collected by the PAD as well as computer programs or instructions for execution by the processor and/or any component or system of the PAD. In various embodiments, the memory may store deployment or navigation information for an operating environment. The deployment information may include premises maps (e.g., preloaded maps, maps dynamically generated by the PAD, etc.), predetermined routes, restricted areas, and maps or routes corresponding to previous PAD deployments. For example, a PAD operating within a home may use a predetermined route to traverse the entire home efficiently. As another example, in a PAD operating within a back yard of a home, the memory may store a mapping of restricted areas where obstacles make it difficult for the PAD to navigate. As yet another example, a PAD may encounter an object as it traverses an area, and automatically add that object to its mapping algorithm. Alternatively, the PAD may request user input before adding an object to its mapping algorithm, and may request such input by transmitting object information (e.g., location. photo, video, audio, other sensor inputs, etc.) to a local or remote user requesting assistance in classifying the object. In various embodiments, the memory may store any information received by the PAD sensor suite.
The communication component includes one or more of transmitters and receivers appropriate to communication protocols used in operation of the PAD. The communication component can include at least one of cellular, satellite, WiFi, broadband, Internet Protocol (IP), data, voice, proprietary, and other radio-frequency protocols. The communication component can also include mesh and/or repeater protocols.
As an example, the communication component includes a wireless client configured as an IEEE 802.11 wireless client. Any wireless protocol may be used. In various embodiments, IEEE 802.11a, b, g, n, or ac protocols may be used or any other wireless communication protocol. The wireless client may be capable of high-speed handoffs so that wireless client may be in communication with multiple wireless access points during mobile operations of the PAD. Wireless client may use security protocols such as WEP, WPA, WPA2, and 802.11X to secure wireless communications. Filters may be used to limit wireless traffic to prevent interference.
The PAD navigation components include any device or receiver for receiving location signals and determining a location or other information necessary to movements by the PAD. The navigation components can include devices that include at least one of gyroscopes, optics-based devices, (e.g., laser range finder, laser dopler velocimeter, infrared rangers, etc.), filters, map recognition applications, and the like. For example, navigation module may include a GPS receiver for receiving GPS location signals and determining a location. Location data may also be calculated using WiFi triangulation, sensor signal triangulation, NFC positioning, RFID tag positioning, hardwired/physically placed network equipment, and pre-positioned quick response code tags and other sensing media. In various embodiments, navigation module may be integrated with a compass module and a PAD navigation system or coprocessor. Alternatively, processor and memory may perform navigation based on data received from navigation module. The navigation module may receive navigation data from a remote client device, map or navigation data stored in memory, and/or navigation data provided via the wireless client. In various alternative embodiments, navigation module may provide information via a remote client device to a user who remotely controls the PAD via wireless client.
The PAD includes a sensor suite comprising one or more sensors and detectors to gather data in/around the premises during operations by the PAD. The sensor suite includes but is not limited to at least one of motion sensors, acoustic sensors, audio sensors, imaging sensors, video sensors, cameras, infrared sensors, ultraviolet sensors, proximity sensors, environmental sensors, temperature sensors, fire sensors, smoke sensors, carbon monoxide sensors, and moisture sensors.
The premises can include an automation or premises security system comprising a gateway, as described in detail herein. In this premises configuration, the PAD of an embodiment includes the gateway (e.g., gateway, connected device gateway, cloud hub, etc.) in addition to the other components described herein. Furthermore, the PAD of another alternative embodiment is configured as the security panel of the security system and includes all components of the security panel so that it is the intermediary between security devices of the security system and components of the server environment. Additionally, the PAD of another alternative embodiment is configured as the security panel and the premises gateway and includes all components of the security panel and the premises gateway so that it is the intermediary between security devices and premises smart devices and components of the server environment.
The PAD of an embodiment is configured to autonomously navigate the premises using learned, received, and/or programmed route information of premises layout, where the navigation uses one or more of the navigation techniques described herein. The premises layout includes a mapping of the premises, wherein the mapping of an embodiment includes location and sensor data of home automation or security sensors. The PAD is also configured to traverse the premises under remote control via a remote client device.
The PAD of an embodiment includes components configured to target or control PAD deployments to premises areas based on detected events and activity in/around the premises. In so doing, the PAD of an embodiment generates maps of regions of the premises by mapping characteristics of regions of the premises to sensors and network devices in the premises. The maps or premises layout are used, in some embodiments with supplemental navigation and/or sensor information, to guide the PAD to a target adjacent to a sensor or device location, thereby providing PAD targeting based on activity in/around the premises.
A training or calibration route may be established to determine or learn characteristics of the premises and/or sensor presence and location. This route is one or more of delivered to the PAD by a remote operator/user communicating remotely with the PAD, an autonomous route determined by onboard or remote software, and a pre-determined route programmed into the device using either the on-board computing power of the PAD or by a computer communicating with the device via the wireless client. As the PAD traverses the premises, the on-board sensor suite collects data of the premises. The data gathered by the sensor suite is used by one or more of the PAD on-board electronics, components of the server environment, and premises CPE to generate one or more maps of the premises.
The PAD of an embodiment is configured to “learn” layout and characteristics of the premises. In an embodiment, an installer or user trains the PAD. In this mode, the PAD is moved through the premises and “learns” the route used for this training along with characteristics of the route. The characteristics include but are not limited to location, size, shape, doors, windows, openings, lights, stairs, furniture, household objects, obstacles, sensors, trees, limbs, etc. Following training, the PAD is configured to use the learned data to autonomously traverse one or more routes through the premises.
The PAD of an alternative embodiment includes sensors that configure the PAD to dynamically self-learn the premise and calibrate. In this embodiment, the PAD is not required to “learn” the premises under control of a human operator. Instead, the PAD sensor suite (e.g., proximity sensors, etc.) enables the PAD to autonomously navigate in/around the premises in order to self-learn and map the layout and characteristics of the premises. The PAD generates a mapping of the premises during this self-learning phase, and continuously updates and maintains the mapping data using data of subsequent patrol deployments. In essence, data of the premises (e.g., routes, characteristics, etc.) is collected during every operation of the PAD and that data is used to update and maintain the premises “virtual” floor plan used to support the security system and the PAD. Consequently, the PAD is dynamically adaptable to changes in the premises as they occur (e.g., moving furniture, room addition, remodeling, etc.).
The mapping of the premises by the PAD of an embodiment includes the PAD learning or gathering information of premises sensors. Furthermore, the premises map generated is supplemented to include the premises sensor information. Generally, the PAD is configured to determine or assist determination of location based on sensor technologies. For example, the PAD of an embodiment determines location relative to premises sensors using a triangulation technique based on signals and signal characteristics of the premises sensors. As an example, the PAD of an embodiment includes or uses near-field communication (NFC) technology for location awareness. For example, the PAD sensor suite is configured to locate and identify premises sensors using NFC to communicate and/or exchange data with the premises sensors.
In this configuration, the PAD of an embodiment includes or uses sensor identification technology that includes at least one of near-field communication (NFC) technology and radio frequency identification (RFID) technology for location awareness. The sensor suite on-board the PAD is configured to use these technologies to locate and identify premises sensors and to communicate and/or exchange data with the premises sensors.
As an example, a SID module of the PAD is configured to detect or process signals of sensor devices located at the premises. The SID module is configured to read various types of sensor signals. The speed of the PAD as it traverses the premises may be controlled to ensure that SID module is capable of accurately reading sensor signals while in motion. In some embodiments, the SID module may include radar technology capable of sensing direction and distance from given sensor signal(s) to determine the positions of detected tags. The speed of the PAD may be based on the number or density of sensor signals, strength of sensor signals, direction of sensor signals, and distance to sensors.
A spatial identifier may be utilized to determine sensor and/or PAD location. These spatial identifiers may include RFID tags placed at previously determined physical locations to create a grid of known physical data points. Alternative types of input devices (e.g. quick response codes, laser scanner, bar codes, electrical/optical sensors with recognition capabilities) may also provide spatial information in a similar manner. Spatial information may be attached to permanently affixed RFID tags. As such, a network or location grid may be developed to permit the derivation of precise location of the point read.
The SID module is coupled or connected to the PAD on-board wireless client. As SID module reads sensor signals, SID module may send sensor identification information to wireless client for transmission as described in detail herein. In various embodiments, SID module may be configured to read particular data fields from sensor signals and format the read data into packets. If radar technology or other location-detecting sensor is implemented, sensor distance and direction may be used to calculate precise location.
An embodiment includes methods of determining the position and presence of sensors in the premises using data collected by the PAD. As the PAD travels the path, data provided either by navigation module, SID module, wireless data provided by wireless client, by spatial identifiers, or combinations thereof, are used to determine the position and presence of detected sensors in two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) space. Using the training path, spatial data and presence data will be collected, and sensor signal data may be collected. As sensors are detected, the physical location and data of the sensor detected may be stored. As the PAD passes out of range of the first sensors detected and detects the next set of sensors, this data and location information may be stored. As the PAD navigates its route, signals from new sensors may be collected and signals from previously collected sensors will be lost. Software hosted on the PAD and/or elsewhere in the PAD system determines the precise location of the sensors detected. When the sensor is no longer detected, a physical position may be determined. This position may then be identified in the software, stored, and then transferred to corresponding systems as appropriate to the system configuration.
The PAD of an embodiment also captures any location or positioning information (e.g., GPS data, etc.) from the navigation system during the route traversal. The positioning information may be associated with the sensor data collected by the PAD. The positioning information and/or sensor data are processed and used by components of the PAD system to maintain accurate data of the premises and the state of the premises.
Following mapping of the premises, the PAD is configured to autonomously traverse the premises using the premises floor plan and data gathered during PAD training or mapping operations. Alternatively, the PAD is configured to receive programmed routes based on the premises floor plan as described herein.
The PAD components in an embodiment are configured to execute a method of self-calibration that ensures the PAD can successfully perform the elements described herein. This calibration may include configuration and quality checks on the PAD platform, the sensor suite or arrays attached to the platform, the communication systems on the platform, communication linkages, safety systems, power systems, propulsion systems, computing systems, and data transfer. The PAD may be directed to travel to a known calibration point, e.g. a “configuration station”, to test its capabilities against a series of known and pre-determined data points. This enables the PAD to calibrate its system against this known information. Status information may be transferred to a maintenance system either on-board the PAD or transferred wirelessly to controlling servers. The PAD may continue its mission if certain system failures permit, else it may be configured to return to a point of origin (e.g., base station) for configuration or repair either manually, programmatically, or autonomously as necessary. If during travel on-board safety systems detect a significant systems error, the PAD may be either instructed to return to point of origin or immediately cease travel in the safest means possible.
The PAD of an embodiment incorporates ‘anti-hacking’ protection. Anti-hacking protection may include encrypted communications and secure authentication with beacons, sensors, etc. to ensure that false beacons or sensors cannot mislead the PAD. Other anti-hacking protection includes redundant sensor technology and logic to handle attempts to jam, corrupt, or otherwise interfere with sensor/beacon signals. In this embodiment the PAD incorporates logic that detects jamming (e.g., spread-spectrum power in the necessary sensor/beacon frequencies) and treats this event as an attempt to disable the system. In various embodiments, the PAD, security panel, gateway, and/or server logic incorporates algorithms to notify remote servers or monitoring stations in the event of such hacking or jamming.
The PAD electronic components of an embodiment include an output device that is a device configured to provide local communication from the PAD. In an example embodiment, output device may be an audio system. Other examples of an output device include a projector and dispenser. The output device may receive data via the PAD processor and/or wireless client and process the received data to interact with people near the PAD. For example, the PAD may receive or generate premises status messages for occupants within or outside a premises, where the status messages are based on premises sensor data. The messages may include status information, security warnings, and safety warnings, to name a few.
The output device of an embodiment includes one or more actuators configured to manipulate, or cause to be manipulated, physical objects. Example manipulation actions of the PAD include lifting, carrying, moving, opening, closing, pushing, pulling, sweeping, and dispensing, but are not so limited. The manipulation of physical objects includes the PAD automatically manipulating the object, and the PAD manipulating the object in response to remote control signals received from a remote client device.
The PAD system of an embodiment includes a docking or base station as described herein with reference to
The PAD system includes server components of the cloud environment or server environment configured to communicate with the PAD, as described herein and with reference to
The PAD system includes a network access point (e.g., wireless, wired, wireless/wired, etc.) to access a remote network and devices remote to the premises. The remote network is coupled or connected to the cloud domain comprising one or more of a remote server or cloud-based computing infrastructure (e.g., automation server, security server, database server, application server, etc.). The cloud environment includes one or more components and/or applications for interaction with the PAD. For example, a component of the cloud environment may receive some subset or all data from components in the premises environment and update components in the cloud environment using the received data. As another example, the cloud environment may receive customer or subscriber information and in response provide instructions or commands to one or more components in the premises environment.
The PAD system includes components of and/or couplings to one or more of an automation or security system, sensors or components of the automation or security system (e.g., security sensors, detectors, RFID tags, IP devices, etc.), and network devices of a local premises network. The PAD is configured to communicate with one or more of the docking station, cloud servers, premises sensors, and premises network devices, to name a few.
As described in detail herein, the network access point includes one or more of a gateway, PAD docking station, premises security system, premises automation system, connected device gateway, and the like. When the PAD system includes a “gateway”, the “gateway” includes a standalone gateway or touchscreen as described herein with reference to the integrated automation or security system, a gateway configured as a component of the PAD, and a gateway configured as a component of the docking station. The components and functionality of the gateway are described in detail herein.
The network access point of an embodiment includes a wireless access point in communication with a wireless client located on-board the PAD. The wireless access point includes, for example, IEEE 802.11 wireless protocols, but is not so limited. A wireless protocol may be selected based on the size of the network environment, required data rate, and power needs of the PAD. The wireless access point of an embodiment is a component of one or more other components of the network environment (e.g., gateway, premises automation system, premises security system, etc.). At least a subset of data received via the on-board wireless access point is one or more of processed using the PAD on-board electronics, transferred to the gateway, and transferred to the cloud environment, but is not so limited.
The PAD system includes a remote client device that provides a user or remote operator access to the network. In various embodiments, an operator may interact with the PAD as well as any components of the network environment. For example, remote client device may be used to control the PAD. As further examples, an operator may use remote client device to access and/or monitor any component of the network environment. The remote client device includes at least one of personal computers, smart telephones, tablet computers, mobile devices, and other processing devices.
The PAD of an embodiment is configured to receive control signals from the remote client devices. The control signals of an embodiment control one or more of the PAD, sensors on the PAD, and systems on the PAD, but are not so limited. For example, the premises floor plan is accessed via the remote client device, and selection of an area on the floor plan causes the PAD to automatically be deployed to that area to capture images.
The ‘Internet of Things’ (TOT) and ‘Connected Home’ are terms used to describe the growth of devices within a premise that include some form of local intelligence, connectivity to other devices, or connectivity to ‘cloud-based services’ located remotely from the premises. Some examples of devices included within the existing art include connected or ‘smart’ thermostats, cameras, door locks, lighting control solutions, security sensors and controllers, HVAC controllers, kitchen appliances, etc.
In the conventional art these devices typically include an IP protocol connection to a server remote to the premise (‘in the cloud’). This server often provides remote access and control of the device through mobile apps running on phones or tablets. In some cases the connected devices communicate through this ‘cloud’ server to other devices through their own servers ‘in the cloud’. By way of example, a thermostat in a home can connect to a corresponding cloud server and relay state information to the cloud service of a connected light switch at the same premises. In this way a state change in one device can trigger actions in other devices using the ‘cloud relay’ mechanism. Further, high bandwidth media applications (e.g., video, voice, etc.) use complex and proprietary approaches or protocols to provide remote access including such processes as router port-forwarding and/or heavy-weight server proxies and protocols.
In contrast, the field of home and small business security is served by technology suppliers providing comprehensive ‘closed’ security systems in which individual components (e.g., sensors, security panels, keypads, etc.) operate exclusively within the confines of a single-vendor or proprietary solution. For example, a wireless motion sensor provided by vendor A cannot be used with a security panel provided by vendor B. Each vendor typically has developed sophisticated proprietary wireless technologies to enable the installation and management of wireless sensors, with little or no ability for the wireless devices to operate separate from the vendor's homogeneous system. Furthermore, these ‘closed’ systems are extremely proprietary in their approach to interfacing with either local or wide area standards-based network technologies (e.g., IP networks, etc.). Wireless security technology from providers such as GE Security, Honeywell, and DSC/Tyco are well known in the art, and are examples of this proprietary approach to security systems for home and business.
There is inherent difficulty under this ‘closed system’ approach in interfacing between the plethora of ‘Connected Home’ devices and the proprietary home security systems. Home security system vendors use proprietary LAN protocols and proprietary cloud services to manage and interact with security devices in the home. There is no way for a ‘cloud connected device’ to easily integrate with a security system from any of the proprietary system vendors. Further, it is difficult if not impossible to integrate media into such a proprietary system.
Integration involving a closed system is also difficult due to the complexity and cost of the physical interface between the proprietary security system and the more open ‘Connected Home’ devices. Because the systems are proprietary, typically additional hardware must be retrofitted to these security systems to enable them to communicate locally with non-proprietary devices. This hardware often requires additional wiring or the incorporation of new wireless technologies (e.g., Wifi, Zigbee, etc.) that must be retrofitted to the extant proprietary security system.
Installation and operational complexities also arise due to functional limitations associated with hardwiring a new component into existing security systems. Further, and no less difficult, is interfacing of a new component(s) with the existing system using RF/wireless technology, because installation, security, and the requirement of new radios in the security system impart additional complexity.
With reference to
The server environment of the connected device system includes one or more of a bridge server, connected device server, and security server, as described in detail herein. Each smart device coupled to the connected device gateway at the premises has a corresponding connected device server but the embodiment is not so limited. Thus, connected device configurations of an embodiment include configurations in which a connected device server is dedicated to each smart device, a connected device server is dedicated to a type of smart device (e.g., first connected device server for sensor devices, second connected device server for automation devices, etc.), a connected device server is dedicated to a type of protocol used by the smart devices (e.g., first connected device server for Z-Wave devices, second connected device server for Zigbee devices, etc.), and/or a connected device server is dedicated to a plurality of smart devices. The connected device server of an embodiment is configured as one or more of a router that routes or directs communications to/from one or more corresponding connected or smart devices, a service provider (e.g., server in the middle) that stores at least a portion of data of smart or connected devices, and a gateway that couples remote devices (e.g., smart phones, tablet computers, personal computers, etc.) to the connected or smart devices.
Applications hosted or running on client devices (e.g., remote devices, iOS devices, Android devices, web browsers, etc.) are configured to communicate with the connected devices, smart devices, connected device gateway, PAD, and/or security system (panel) at the premises through their respective servers. Further, the PAD can stream media (e.g., video, audio, etc.) to the remote devices, receive media from remote devices, and output media if desired (e.g., enable audio output from a remote person to generate sounds or video at the premise, etc.). In this manner, the system of an embodiment is configured to provide control of and access to data of a variety of smart and connected devices at the premises using the client device application synchronized to the smart or connected devices via the cloud-based server environment.
The system of an embodiment generally includes one or more of a cellular radio or broadband ‘IP communicator’ module that is included as a component of or coupled to the proprietary security system. These communicators have typically served to communicate critical life-safety and intrusion signals to a remote central monitoring station, or to provide remote control of the security system from personal computers, mobile devices, and/or other remote client devices to name a few. The communicators of an embodiment (e.g., whether cellular or broadband-based) are each configured to provide a linkage between the security system and the ‘Connected Home’ devices through a cloud server-to-server interface.
The system of an embodiment also includes a security panel of a security system coupled to a wide area network (WAN) via a coupling or connection to a broadband IP and/or a cellular communicator (not shown), as described with reference to
The server or cloud environment of an embodiment comprises one or more logical components that include a rules service, web service, client devices service, history service, and security service, to name a few. The rules service (e.g., IFTT, etc.) is configured to generate rules for the rules engine, where the new rules complement and/or replace rules hosted or running in the rules engine. The web service is configured to manage web portal communications. The client devices service is configured to manage communications of client device applications. The history service is configured to manage history data associated with components of the system (e.g., client devices, connected devices, gateways, sessions, etc.). The security service is configured to manage communications and/or data of a security panel (system) at the premises that is a component of the cloud system described in detail herein.
The connected device gateway communicates with a session server (cloud router) that comprises gateway sessions, also referred to in embodiments as “Lightweight Gateway (LWGW) instances.” The session server with the gateway sessions is configured to manage communications with gateways, client devices, etc. The session server is configured as a communication relay or router (e.g. cloud router) that relays communications between devices; alternatively, the session server is configured to provide a device initiating a communication session with an address (e.g., IP address, etc.) of the target device so that the initiating device and the target device communicate directly without going through the session server. As such, the session server is configured to manage couplings or connections between the communicator module or device and the cloud server.
The server environment of an embodiment also includes a bridge server configured to provide an open communications interface between the smart devices and/or the connected devices and the security system. Any device can be a plugin or a subscriber to the bridge server, but the embodiment is not so limited.
The bridge server includes a subscriber interface coupled to the event bus, and the subscriber interface comprises one or more user agents or agents. The agent(s) of the subscriber interface pulls events or event data from the event bus and transfers them to another component or application as described herein. The subscriber interface also puts events onto the event bus for transfer to the device-specific plugins.
The subscriber interface is coupled to an application (“app”) server (e.g., Location server, Nest servers, etc.) via a bridge interface. The app server includes one or more components that comprise one or more of an app engine, a rules engine, a device data model, and a database. The app engine serves events to a corresponding app and/or receives data from the corresponding app. The rules engine includes rules that are executed in response to event data. The device data model, also referred to as a virtual device, is a device data definition or logical model. The database stores records that include event data and corresponding data or information. The components of the app server communicate with a gateway server that manages components (e.g., firmware, devices, rules engine, communication interface(s), etc.) of a gateway at the premises.
As an example, a user has a Nest thermostat in her home, and when the temperature changes at the thermostat then the thermostat puts an event on the event bus indicating the temperature change. The event includes a unique identifier of the thermostat, and a user agent of the bridge server is listening for the identifier. The user agent, when it identifies an event having an identifier for which it is listening, pulls the event with the particular identifier from the event bus. Data of the event when pulled from the event bus can, for example, be stored in a database, and also checked for correlation to any rule running under the rules engine and, if a correlation is identified, then the data causes the rule to execute.
The rules engine is configured to enable end users or system providers to establish linkages between information or data of device state changes (‘triggers’) and the control of other devices (‘actions’). The rules engine is configured, for example, to control the state of a smart (connected) device (e.g. a thermostat or door lock) in response to a state change of a corresponding connected system (e.g., the security system). As another example, the rules engine controls the state of the security system (e.g., disarm security system (‘action’)) in response to a state change in a connected device (e.g., unlocking of a door (‘trigger’)). The rules engine also controls the state of a LAN device (e.g., a Z-Wave thermostat) by determining a state change of the security system and relaying the desired Connected Device state to the intermediate Cloud Hub for processing.
The rules engine of an embodiment runs or executes at least one of remotely on a cloud-based server (e.g., Rules Service, etc.), locally on consumer premises equipment (CPE) or a premises device (e.g., the Cloud Hub, etc.), and in some distributed combination of devices of the system. The rules engine is configured to store and run at least a portion of the rules locally at the premises in the Cloud Hub or other local CPE. The rules engine of an alternative embodiment is configured to store the rules in a remote server that is located remote to the premises in the server or cloud environment. The rules engine of another alternative embodiment is configured to distribute storage and execution of the rules between local CPE and remote server(s) for redundancy or to provide more timely operation.
The premises devices and systems operate according to rules running on a rules engine at the premises (CPE) and/or in the cloud. Generally, a system configuration includes rules executed on a server in the cloud to support interactions between two or more premises devices (e.g., an event of a first device triggers an action on a second device via one or more rules, etc.). Furthermore, a system configuration includes rules running locally at the premises (e.g., CPE) to support interactions with other devices at the premises via direct interactions when information is not required from a third party or remote server or system in order to effect the interaction.
Additionally, rules running locally at the premises (e.g., CPE) and at a cloud-based server control interaction under an embodiment. For example, a door opens at the premises causing a sensor signal to be sent to the security panel, and the security panel in turn provides notification of the sensor event to a gateway. Rule(s) running at the gateway cause the gateway to issue a request to a cloud-based server for an action by a particular connected device (e.g., camera device at the premises, camera device at a different premises, etc.). Rule(s) running at the server generate a command or control signal to perform the action and send the command to the particular connected device. The particular connected device includes, for example, another device at the premises (e.g. camera in the premises, etc.) and/or a device at a difference premises (e.g., initiate an alarm at a first house if a door is opened at a second house). Optionally, an acknowledgement is generated or issued by the connected device upon completion of the requested action.
The system described herein provides a cloud interface to connected premises (e.g., home, office, etc.) devices and systems. For example, a system includes one or more on-premise devices coupled to a premises security system, and a smart device (e.g., Nest thermostat, etc.) is integrated at the premises through the cloud to the premises system that includes the premises devices and security system.
As a more particular example, the premises includes a security panel and security devices communicating with the cloud (“server environment”) via a broadband IP module, cellular communicator, and/or a gateway. The premises includes a second device (e.g., Z-Wave controller, etc.) that provides or creates a local device network (e.g., Z-Wave, Zigbee, WiFi, WPS, etc.) coupled or connected to the premises LAN. The premises of this example includes a third device (e.g., one or more Dropcams, etc.) comprising a WiFi client communicating with the cloud. Under the configurations described herein, two or more premises devices are coupled at the premises via a connected device gateway and/or at the cloud via a server interface, but are not so limited. Each of the premises devices (e.g., smart devices, connected devices, security devices, etc.), regardless of device type or protocol, is integrated into the system through pushbutton enrollment.
The system of an alternative embodiment includes a gateway device located at the premises. The gateway device is configured to provide a plurality of network interfaces that include, but are not limited to, one or more LAN interfaces for communicating with devices within the premise (e.g., Z-Wave, Wifi, Zigbee, etc.), and a WAN interface for communicating with the Session Server. In this ‘Cloud Hub’ embodiment the gateway is not required to provide a local area coupling or connection between the Connected Home devices and the security system because this connection is provided by/through the cloud interface.
The embodiments of the connected premises systems described herein include numerous operational flows, but are not so limited.
The combined device application provided in an embodiment is an application hosted on a client device (e.g., downloaded to the client device, installed on the client device, etc.) that includes the capabilities of the individual control applications of the respective connected devices. In an embodiment, the combined application is configured to communicate 501 directly with the corresponding connected device(s) (e.g., using information from the bridge server and/or connected device server). In an alternative embodiment, the combined application is configured to communicate 502 with the corresponding device(s) through the bridge server, which communicates with the third party server corresponding to the respective device(s). In another alternative embodiment, the combined application is configured to communicate 503 with the corresponding connected device(s) through the bridge server and the connected device server.
The system of this example includes an integrated or combined device application hosted on a remote client device to provide integrated access to the three connected devices. In an embodiment, the combined application communicates 601/602/603 with the corresponding device(s) through the bridge server, which communicates 601/602/603 directly with the connected device gateway at the premises. Additionally, the connected device gateway is configured to synchronize between connected devices at the local premises and connected devices at a remote premises.
The system of this example also includes three security devices (e.g., door sensor, window sensor, motion detector) coupled to a security panel at the premises. The local security panel communicates with a cloud-based security server. The bridge server of an embodiment communicates with the security panel via the security server. Alternatively, the bridge server communicates directly with the security panel as it does with the connected device gateway, and integrates the interfaces of the connected device providers and the security system provider, but is not so limited.
The system of this example includes an integrated or combined device application hosted on a remote client device and configured to provide integrated access to the three connected devices and the security panel. In an embodiment, the combined application communicates 701/702/703 with the connected device(s) via the bridge server and the connected device gateway at the premises, and communicates 710 with the security devices via the bridge server, the security server, and the security panel. Alternatively, the combined application communicates 720 with the security devices via the bridge server and the security panel.
The connected device gateway is configured to synchronize between connected devices at the local premises and connected devices at a remote premises. Similarly, the security panel is configured to synchronize between security devices at the local premises and security devices at a remote premises.
A process flow of an embodiment for interaction between the integrated app and a connected device comprises but is not limited to the following: an event is commanded at the app for a connected device (e.g., temperature increase commanded three increments); the event is posted to the device data model at the app server; the device data model posts data representing the event on the bridge interface of the bridge server; the bridge interface posts data representing the event onto the event bus; the connected device (e.g., thermostat) plugin, which is listening for events that correspond to the device, pulls the event data from event bus and passes the event (command) data to the corresponding connected device; the event (command) data causes a corresponding change at the connected device (e.g., temperature raised three degrees on thermostat).
A process flow of an embodiment for interactions among connected devices resulting from a state change at a connected device comprises but is not limited to the following: an event is detected at a connected device (e.g., temperature rises 5 degrees to 72 degrees); the device puts data of the event on the event bus of the bridge server via the corresponding device plugin; an agent or listener subscribed to the connected device pulls data of the event from event bus and transfers the data to the app server; app engine of app server posts the event to the corresponding app, and posts the event data in the database; app engine posts the event data to the rules engine because the rules engine, which includes a rule that corresponds to the event (e.g., if temperature rises above 70 degrees, turn on lamp in den); rules engine executes the rule and sends a message to the gateway server to carry out the action (e.g., turn on lamp in den) or, alternatively, the rules engine passes the event data to the gateway server, which executes the rule for the connected device (lamp).
A process flow of an embodiment for interactions among connected devices resulting from a state change at a security sensor comprises but is not limited to the following: an event is detected at a sensor; sensor event data received from the sensor and processed at the security panel; the processed sensor event data is transmitted to the security server where it is stored; the security server posts information representing the sensor event data via an API; the security server communicates the sensor event to the bridge server via a security system plugin; an agent or listener subscribed to the security system pulls data of the event from the event bus and transfers the data to the app server via the bridge interface; app engine of app server posts the event to the corresponding app, and posts the event data in the database; app engine posts the event data to the rules engine, which includes a rule that corresponds to the event (e.g., if door sensor state change, record video at door camera); rules engine executes the rule and sends a message to the gateway server to carry out the action (e.g., activate door camera) or, alternatively, the rules engine passes the event data to the gateway server, which executes the rule for the connected device (camera).
Embodiments include pushbutton enrollment of devices (e.g., smart devices, connected devices, security devices, etc.) into the premises environment using one or more technologies. In an embodiment, the device is triggered to initiate an enrollment routine or process that enrolls the smart device into the premises environment via one or more of the premises components described herein (e.g. connected devices, smart devices, gateways, security devices, etc.). Device enrollment causes the enrolling device to update the system as to the state of currently installed devices via the coupling to the sever environment. When a device is added to the system, the system automatically recognizes the device in the system and populates the device throughout the system. Similarly, when a device is removed from the system, the system removes the device throughout the system.
More particularly, a process flow of an embodiment for enrolling and accessing connected or smart devices comprises but is not limited to the following: bridge server identifies supported device(s); bridge server locates supported device(s) on local network or prompts user for added device(s); bridge server authenticates or validates device(s); validated device(s) is added to the integrated or combined app for control and/or rules; generic device-specific interface is presented to user (e.g., generic thermostat interface), and/or customized device-specific interface is presented to user, and/or launch third party UI for device.
A process flow of an alternative embodiment for enrolling and accessing connected or smart devices comprises but is not limited to the following: bridge server identifies supported device(s); identified device(s) added to the system; added device(s) connects to connected device server and corresponding connected device app; integrated app is downloaded, downloaded app identifies devices to be bridged (keys, login credentials) and authenticates or validates device(s); validated device(s) is added to the app for control and/or rules; generic device-specific interface is presented to user (e.g., generic thermostat interface), and/or customized device-specific interface is presented to user, and/or launch third party UI for device.
The embodiments described in detail herein provide the Cloud Hub as a low-cost solution for home automation, which can be added to an existing site (e.g., Tier-1 site). The Cloud Hub device of the embodiments, as a component of the consumer premises equipment (CPE), couples or connects to a broadband connection at the host premises and is configured as a gateway for devices (e.g., cameras, sensors, Z-Wave, Zigbee, etc.) located or installed at the premises. More particularly, the Cloud Hub is a multi-purpose device access point configured to enable full home automation. The Cloud Hub is configured to enable premises devices (e.g., cameras, sensors, Z-Wave, Zigbee, etc.) for sites that do not currently support these devices, and/or provide a “sandbox” for Direct Cameras, but is not so limited.
The Cloud Hub of an embodiment is configured to communicate with a Lightweight Gateway (LWGW) that includes a corresponding server-side abstraction with which it interacts or communicates. In an embodiment this device class interacts with the server and the actual Cloud Hub device in much the same way that a RISSecurityPanel (e.g., server-side module that receives state change events from a security panel and is able to communicate directory with the panel in order to control (arm/disarm) or configure (add/remove security sensors the panel) class interacts, as described in detail herein. As such, an embodiment re-factors the common code out of the RISSecurityPanel into a class capable of use by both the RISSecurityPanel and the Cloud Hub device. A new device definition is provided for this type of device, along with various changes to the StandardGateway class to control and manage the additional communication channel with the new device.
The Session Server of an embodiment is configured to use a gateway registry service to route incoming UDP packets from the CPE to the proper LWGW instance via a one to one mapping of CPE-unique IDs to site IDs. With the addition of the Cloud Hub, a second CPE-unique ID is used which is mapped to the same LWGW instance as the primary SMA client's CPE-unique ID. To accomplish this the Device Registry service is leveraged, and this registry maintains a mapping of CPE ID and device type to site ID. The session server is configured to use this Device Registry to properly route income packets but is not so limited.
The LWGW and cloud-based infrastructure of an embodiment uses an existing service provider infrastructure, security, performance, and APIs, along with system components that are separated into modules executed on distributed in-premises systems. The LWGW and cloud-based infrastructure includes a pluggable architecture that enables new device protocols and RF technologies to be added without the need to overhaul the core infrastructure. Use of a relatively small memory footprint on the CPE enables the infrastructure to execute on many devices, and this refactoring of local versus cloud services provides a virtual device (e.g., Internet of Things (TOT), etc.) gateway service that pushes as much as possible to the cloud while maintaining local performance and offline capabilities.
The LWGW included in an embodiment is configured as the server-side abstraction for the Cloud Hub. The LWGW is subordinate to the gateway object, and interacts with the server and the Cloud Hub device in much the same way that a RISSecurityPanel class does. As such, an embodiment re-factors the common code out of RISSecurityPanel into a class that both RISSecurityPanel and the Cloud Hub device can use. A new device definition is created for this type of device, and various changes to the StandardGateway class to control and manage the additional communication channel with the new device.
The Session Server configuration uses a gateway registry service to route incoming UDP packets from the CPE to the proper LWGW instance via a one-to-one mapping of CPE-unique IDs to site IDs. With the addition of the Cloud Hub, a second CPE-unique ID is mapped to the same LWGW instance as the primary SMA client's CPE-unique ID. This is accomplished by leveraging the Device Registry, which maintains a mapping of CPE ID and device type to site ID. Further, the session server is modified to use this Device Registry to properly route income packets.
Regarding client application software or applications, the clients include UX additions to present the new Cloud Hub device. When the Cloud Hub is present, UX flow will potentially be different. For example, on a Cloud Hub system, Z-Wave devices are not added until the Cloud Hub is added. Also, deleting the Cloud Hub includes deleting the associated Z-Wave devices, and this uses special UX messaging. The activation app and the installer app will also need new flows for installing and managing these devices.
The Cloud Hub Firmware of an example embodiment includes but is not limited to the following components: SMA Client: an always-on (i.e., always-TCP-connected) SMA client, supporting AES-256 encryption; ezwLib: port of the Icontrol embedded Z-Wave stack; Bootstrap Client for secure bootstrap of the master key, and then secure provisioning of the SMA Server connection information and initialization information; LED Driver to drive CPE LED that displays Server connectivity and Z-Wave status (CPE-dependent); Firmware Update Logic for fault-tolerant updates of the full CPE image (CPE-dependent); detailed/tunable error logging; Reset To Factory Default Logic for factory-default Z-Wave (erase node cache and security keys), WiFi (disable sandbox, reset SSID/PSK; CPE-dependent), and de-provision (erase SMA Server info).
In an example configuration, Server-CPE communication is over the SMAv1 protocol, except for bootstrapping and provisioning which uses the OpenHome “Off-Premise Bootstrap Procedure.” On the CPE, the OS and network layer (Wi-Fi sandbox, WPS, routing, etc.) are provided and managed by the CPE OEM (e.g., Sercomm). Wi-Fi provisioning and traffic is handled by the CPE OEM (e.g., Sercomm) without Cloud Hub intervention/signaling, except with respect to enabling/disabling and resetting to defaults.
The Cloud Hub device installation and bootstrap mechanism performs one or more of the following: associate the device with an existing site; securely deliver the SMA communication configuration, including master key, SMA server address, and network ports. An embodiment includes an off-premise bootstrapping procedure, also used for bootstrapping tunneling cameras, that includes a three-step process.
More particularly, the Cloud Hub retrieves its SiteID and Credential Gateway URL during the first step of the process.
The Cloud Hub retrieves its Pending Master Key when the Master Key is not already established from a previous successful Retreieve Credital procedure, during the second step of the process.
While Cloud Hub activation is underway, the Gateway responds to a Cloud Hub's request for Credential with 200 OK including the PendingPaidKey XML body (with method=“server”) with a pending key field. The pending key field becomes active once the Cloud Hub couples or connects to the Gateway over the SMA channel and is authenticated by using the pending key to encrypt the initial SMA exchange. Once authenticated (via a successful SMA session with the Gateway), the key is no longer pending and instead becomes active, or otherwise known as the Cloud Hub's <SharedSecret> or master key. The active master key (“<SharedSecret>”) will not automatically expire; however, the Gateway may update a Cloud Hub's<SharedSecret>.
Once a pending key becomes active, subsequent requests for the PendingDeviceKey receive method=“retry” responses unless a new activation process is initiated (this can be done by administrators and installers via the iControl admin and portal applications).
If the Cloud Hub does not connect to the server over the SMA channel and get authenticated using the key by the “expires” time specified in the PendingPaidKey XML body, then the pending key will expire and no longer be valid. While Cloud Hub activation is underway, each request for the PendingPaidKey receives a different key in the response, causing the previous pending key to be replaced with the new one.
The Cloud Hub retrieves Session Gateway Info, which includes SMA Gateway address, during the third step of the process for device installation and bootstrapping.
During the course of operation, the CPE executes the first and third steps of the installation process described above during each start-up/restart; the second step of the installation is executed when there is no previously stored master key. Hence, security credentials can be re-bootstrapped by invalidating the existing master key.
The installation process of an embodiment is as follows:
The LWGW of an embodiment is configured to maintain a single CPE coupling or connection. This coupling or connection is encapsulated and managed by the RISSecurityPanel class, but is not so limited.
When configuring the system to include the Cloud Hub, an embodiment factors out the SMA communication and generic state-machine functionality from the RISSecurityPanel to create a new class RISCpeDriver, and a new subclass StandardDevice. The new subclass of StandardDevice, RISRouter, represents the Cloud Hub abstraction in the LWGW. A new class RISMCDevManager is also created. The StandardGateway and RISSecurityPanel classes are configured to perform monitor and control (M/C or MC) (e.g., Z-Wave) device operations via this class's public interface. The LWGW representation of CPE connection state is expanded to allow M/C operations to occur, even if the panel connection is down.
The following methods from RISSecurityPanel (some are over-rides from StandardSecurityPanel) are not panel-specific, but rather represent the functionality of any device which implements basic functionality of an SMA client. Therefore, an embodiment includes use of these methods for the RISRouter class:
getSequenceNumber( ); setSequenceNumber( ); getMasterKey( ); getMasterKeyBytes( ); getSessionKey( ); getDeviceHardwareId; getSessionKeyBytes; setSessionKey; getPendingSessionKey; getPendingSessionKeyBytes; setPendingSessionKey; getSmsPinEncoded; getSmsPin; getSmsPinBytes; setSmsPin; getCommandKeyBytes; getWakeupSK; getConfigSK; getConfigSC; getSK; decryptAESCBC256; decryptAESCBC256IV; getType; encrypt; decrypt; getEncryptionContext; messageWasMissed; setConnected; handleUplinkData; refreshAesKey; setAesKey; isMCPointVariable; sendPendingData; doApplicationTick; getSessionId; startPremisesConnectionTest; getSMSTs; configMessage; wakeupMessage; startDiscovery; cancelDiscovery; getDiscoveryState; getSmaFraming; sendPremesisKeepalive; sendNoop; getIfConfig; setlfConfig; getLogFile; getSystemLogFile; setFirmwareUpgrade; getCpeVersion; getCpeFirmwareVersion; setFwUpgradeProgress; getFwUpgradeProgress; getFwUpgradeProgressString; getControllerld; getNextCommandTime; setNextCommandTime; sendDownRequest; setSyncNoAndCheckForMissedEvents; handleAsyncMessage; handleSessionResponseMessage; sendPremesisConfiguration; getSmsHeaders; sendTestSms; sendWakeupSms; setConnected; commandChannelReady; getConnectivityTestTimeout; getCpeStarter; getCommTest; setSilenceAllTroubles; setClearAllTroubles.
The following methods from RISSecurityPanel are related to M/C devices, and this functionality is handled by the RISRouter (Cloud Hub) class, when present. Hence an interface for them comes out of RISSecurityPanel to be implemented by the RISRouter class. The StandardGateway is configured to decide which class method to call based on the presence of a Cloud Hub: handleMCDiscoveryModeStatusReport; handleMCDeviceStatusReport; reportMCPointUpdate; hasMatchingDeviceNames; getDiscoveredMCDeviceName; doZWave; getMCDevices; getMCDevRoute; getMCDevRoutes; getMCPointValue; getMCPointValues; getMCPointConfigs; getMCPointConfig; setAllMCPointConfigs; setDeviceMCPointConfigs; setMCPointConfig; setMCPointValue; setMCPointValue; failMCCommand; getMCDeviceVersionString; renameDevice; removeDevice.
Commands (e.g., SMAv1) to be routed through the RISRouter class, when present, include but are not limited to the following: GET_MC_DEVICE_CONFIG; GET_MC_POINT_CONFIG; SET_MC_POINT_REPORT_CONFIG; GET_MC_POINT_STATUS; SET_MC_POINT_STATUS; GET_MC_DEVICE_USER_CODES; SET_MC_DEVICE_USER_CODES; REMOVE_MC_DEVICE_USER_CODES; LOCAL_PORT_PASSTHROUGH; REMOVE_MC_DEVICE; SET_MC_DEVICE_NAME; GET_MC_DEVICE_ROUTES.
System commands to be routed through the RISRouter class, when present, include but are not limited to the following: MC_MESH_RELEARN; GET_DISCOVERY_STATUS; SET_DISCOVERY_STATUS; GET_LOCAL_PORT_CONFIG; SET_LOCAL_PORT_CONFIG; GET_MESH_RELEARN_STATUS; RESET_MC_MODULE.
System commands to be conditionally routed to either RISRouter or RISSecurityPanel, include but are not limited to the following: UPGRADE_FIRMWARE; GET_LOG_FILE; GET_LOCAL_TIME; SET_LOCAL_TIME; GET_TIME_ZONE; SET_TIME_ZONE; GET_FIRMWARE_VERSION.
The Cloud Hub of an embodiment is a broadband-connected device, and it is configured to attempt to maintain an always-on TCP/IP connection with the server. Therefore, there is no need for a shoulder-tap mechanism. Likewise, no “wake-up” message is required because the Cloud Hub is effectively always awake. With conventional Tier-1 systems, the server tears down the TCP connection after several minutes of inactivity; for Cloud Hub, the TCP connection should stay up for as long as possible, with periodic server-originated SMA heartbeat messages (SMA Request Type 0), so that the CPE can supervise the connection as being truly active.
Incoming UDP messages from the CPE are routed to the LWGW instance associated with a given site ID. The session server uses the Gateway Registry, which is a one-to-one mapping of CPE-unique IDs to site IDs for this purpose. With the addition of the Cloud Hub, an embodiment includes a second CPE-unique ID that is mapped to the same site ID (LWGW instance) as the primary SMA client's CPE-unique ID. This is accomplished by leveraging a Device Registry service that maintains a mapping of CPE ID and device type to site ID. The session server is modified to use the following procedure upon receipt of a UDP packet:
The Cloud Hub, UDP and TCP messages received from the CPE at the session server are sent to the correct LWGW via two REST endpoints, thereby allowing the receiving LWGW instance to run on a session server other than the one at which the message was received.
When a UDP SMA message arrives at a session server, if the LWGW corresponding to the CPE-unique ID message is not already running on the given session server, then the session server initiates a new LWGW instance there, and if the corresponding LWGW is currently running on another session server, it will be gracefully shut down. In this way, the LWGW can move from one session server to another.
Regarding the session server/LWGW routing mechanism of an embodiment, the Cloud Hub network traffic includes a mechanism in which incoming UDP messages to a first session server cause the first session server to determine if the LWGW is running on the first session server. If so, using a LocalRestClient, UDP messages are passed through to the LWGW via a rest endpoint that calls through to the handleAsyncMessage method of the RIS device; if not, LWGW routing cache is checked to determine which session server is hosting the LWGW. If a routing entry is found, then use AMQPRestClient to pass the UDP message through to the specific session server hosting the LWGW via the same rest endpoint that calls through to the handleAsyncMessage method of the RIS device. If no routing entry is found, or the session server returns 404 (e.g., stale routing entry), then the session server sends out a broadcast request using the AMQPRestClient to ask all session servers “who has this LWGW”. If a session server responds to the broadcast request, then the async event is sent to that session server following the method described herein. If no session server responds to the broadcast request, then the LWGW is started on this first session server.
In an embodiment, the Cloud Hub network traffic includes a mechanism in which incoming TCP messages to a first session server cause the first session server to determine if LWGW is running on the first session server. If LWGW is not running on the first session server, LWGW routing cache is checked to determine which session server is hosting the LWGW and the TCP message is passed through accordingly, but using a different rest endpoint than UDP message handling. In the rest endpoint call, the name of the session server with the TCP connection is sent along with the request. When the LWGW receives TCP messages through the rest endpoint, it tracks the name of the session server with the TCP connection.
When the LWGW sends a command over the TCP coupling or connection in an embodiment, it sends a command via the AMQPRestClient to the session server hosting the TCP connection. It has this name saved from when it received the first TCP message for the given connection. If the TCP session server hostname is not known, or responds with a message indicating the TCP connection no longer present, then the LWGW sends out a broadcast request using the AMQPRestClient to ask all session servers “who has this TCP connection”. If any session server responds to the broadcast request, then the LWGW sends the command to that session server following the method described above. If no session server responds to the broadcast request, then the LWGW queues the command for a pre-specified time period.
The system of an embodiment including the Cloud Hub and Virtual Gateway as described in detail herein includes one or more components of the “integrated security system” described in detail in the Related Applications, which are incorporated by reference herein. An example of the “integrated security system” is available as one or more of the numerous systems or platforms available from iControl Networks, Inc., Redwood City, Calif. The system of an embodiment described herein incorporates one or more components of the “integrated security system”. The system of an embodiment described herein is coupled to one or more components of the “integrated security system”. The system of an embodiment described herein integrates with one or more components of the “integrated security system”.
More particularly, the methods and processes of the integrated security system, and hence the full functionality, can be implemented in the system described herein including the Cloud Hub and Virtual Gateway. Therefore, embodiments of the systems described herein integrate broadband and mobile access and control with conventional security systems and premise devices to provide a tri-mode security network (broadband, cellular/GSM, POTS access) that enables users to remotely stay connected to their premises. The integrated security system, while delivering remote premise monitoring and control functionality to conventional monitored premise protection, complements existing premise protection equipment. The integrated security system integrates into the premise network and couples wirelessly with the conventional security panel, enabling broadband access to premise security systems. Automation devices (cameras, lamp modules, thermostats, etc.) can be added, enabling users to remotely see live video and/or pictures and control home devices via their personal web portal or webpage, mobile phone, and/or other remote client device. Users can also receive notifications via email or text message when happenings occur, or do not occur, in their home.
In accordance with the embodiments described herein, a wireless system (e.g., radio frequency (RF)) is provided that enables a security provider or consumer to extend the capabilities of an existing RF-capable security system or a non-RF-capable security system that has been upgraded to support RF capabilities. The system includes an RF-capable Gateway device (physically located within RF range of the RF-capable security system) and associated software operating on the Gateway device. The system also includes a web server, application server, and remote database providing a persistent store for information related to the system.
The security systems of an embodiment, referred to herein as the iControl security system or integrated security system, extend the value of traditional home security by adding broadband access and the advantages of remote home monitoring and home control through the formation of a security network including components of the integrated security system integrated with a conventional premise security system and a premise local area network (LAN). With the integrated security system, conventional home security sensors, cameras, touchscreen keypads, lighting controls, and/or Internet Protocol (IP) devices in the home (or business) become connected devices that are accessible anywhere in the world from a web browser, mobile phone or through content-enabled touchscreens. The integrated security system experience allows security operators to both extend the value proposition of their monitored security systems and reach new consumers that include broadband users interested in staying connected to their family, home and property when they are away from home.
The integrated security system of an embodiment includes security servers (also referred to herein as iConnect servers or security network servers) and an iHub gateway (also referred to herein as the gateway, the iHub, or the iHub client) that couples or integrates into a home network (e.g., LAN) and communicates directly with the home security panel, in both wired and wireless installations. The security system of an embodiment automatically discovers the security system components (e.g., sensors, etc.) belonging to the security system and connected to a control panel of the security system and provides consumers with full two-way access via web and mobile portals. The gateway supports various wireless protocols and can interconnect with a wide range of control panels offered by security system providers. Service providers and users can then extend the system's capabilities with the additional IP cameras, lighting modules or security devices such as interactive touchscreen keypads. The integrated security system adds an enhanced value to these security systems by enabling consumers to stay connected through email and SMS alerts, photo push, event-based video capture and rule-based monitoring and notifications. This solution extends the reach of home security to households with broadband access.
The integrated security system builds upon the foundation afforded by traditional security systems by layering broadband and mobile access, IP cameras, interactive touchscreens, and an open approach to home automation on top of traditional security system configurations. The integrated security system is easily installed and managed by the security operator, and simplifies the traditional security installation process, as described below.
The integrated security system provides an open systems solution to the home security market. As such, the foundation of the integrated security system customer premises equipment (CPE) approach has been to abstract devices, and allows applications to manipulate and manage multiple devices from any vendor. The integrated security system DeviceConnect technology that enables this capability supports protocols, devices, and panels from GE Security and Honeywell, as well as consumer devices using Z-Wave, IP cameras (e.g., Ethernet, wifi, and Homeplug), and IP touchscreens. The DeviceConnect is a device abstraction layer that enables any device or protocol layer to interoperate with integrated security system components. This architecture enables the addition of new devices supporting any of these interfaces, as well as add entirely new protocols.
The benefit of DeviceConnect is that it provides supplier flexibility. The same consistent touchscreen, web, and mobile user experience operate unchanged on whatever security equipment selected by a security system provider, with the system provider's choice of IP cameras, backend data center and central station software.
The integrated security system provides a complete system that integrates or layers on top of a conventional host security system available from a security system provider. The security system provider therefore can select different components or configurations to offer (e.g., CDMA, GPRS, no cellular, etc.) as well as have iControl modify the integrated security system configuration for the system provider's specific needs (e.g., change the functionality of the web or mobile portal, add a GE or Honeywell-compatible TouchScreen, etc.).
The integrated security system integrates with the security system provider infrastructure for central station reporting directly via Broadband and GPRS alarm transmissions. Traditional dial-up reporting is supported via the standard panel connectivity. Additionally, the integrated security system provides interfaces for advanced functionality to the CMS, including enhanced alarm events, system installation optimizations, system test verification, video verification, 2-way voice over IP and GSM.
The integrated security system is an IP centric system that includes broadband connectivity so that the gateway augments the existing security system with broadband and GPRS connectivity. If broadband is down or unavailable GPRS may be used, for example. The integrated security system supports GPRS connectivity using an optional wireless package that includes a GPRS modem in the gateway. The integrated security system treats the GPRS connection as a higher cost though flexible option for data transfers. In an embodiment the GPRS connection is only used to route alarm events (e.g., for cost), however the gateway can be configured (e.g., through the iConnect server interface) to act as a primary channel and pass any or all events over GPRS. Consequently, the integrated security system does not interfere with the current plain old telephone service (POTS) security panel interface. Alarm events can still be routed through POTS; however the gateway also allows such events to be routed through a broadband or GPRS connection as well. The integrated security system provides a web application interface to the CSR tool suite as well as XML web services interfaces for programmatic integration between the security system provider's existing call center products. The integrated security system includes, for example, APIs that allow the security system provider to integrate components of the integrated security system into a custom call center interface. The APIs include XML web service APIs for integration of existing security system provider call center applications with the integrated security system service. All functionality available in the CSR Web application is provided with these API sets. The Java and XML-based APIs of the integrated security system support provisioning, billing, system administration, CSR, central station, portal user interfaces, and content management functions, to name a few. The integrated security system can provide a customized interface to the security system provider's billing system, or alternatively can provide security system developers with APIs and support in the integration effort.
The integrated security system provides or includes business component interfaces for provisioning, administration, and customer care to name a few. Standard templates and examples are provided with a defined customer professional services engagement to help integrate OSS/BSS systems of a Service Provider with the integrated security system.
The integrated security system components support and allow for the integration of customer account creation and deletion with a security system. The iConnect APIs provides access to the provisioning and account management system in iConnect and provide full support for account creation, provisioning, and deletion. Depending on the requirements of the security system provider, the iConnect APIs can be used to completely customize any aspect of the integrated security system backend operational system.
The integrated security system includes a gateway that supports the following standards-based interfaces, to name a few: Ethernet IP communications via Ethernet ports on the gateway, and standard XML/TCP/IP protocols and ports are employed over secured SSL sessions; USB 2.0 via ports on the gateway; 802.11b/g/n IP communications; GSM/GPRS RF WAN communications; CDMA 1×RTT RF WAN communications (optional, can also support EVDO and 3G technologies).
The gateway supports the following proprietary interfaces, to name a few: interfaces including Dialog RF network (319.5 MHz) and RS485 Superbus 2000 wired interface; RF mesh network (908 MHz); and interfaces including RF network (345 MHz) and RS485/RS232bus wired interfaces.
Regarding security for the IP communications (e.g., authentication, authorization, encryption, anti-spoofing, etc), the integrated security system uses SSL to encrypt all IP traffic, using server and client-certificates for authentication, as well as authentication in the data sent over the SSL-encrypted channel. For encryption, integrated security system issues public/private key pairs at the time/place of manufacture, and certificates are not stored in any online storage in an embodiment.
The integrated security system does not need any special rules at the customer premise and/or at the security system provider central station because the integrated security system makes outgoing connections using TCP over the standard HTTP and HTTPS ports. Provided outbound TCP connections are allowed then no special requirements on the firewalls are necessary.
The integrated security system service (also referred to as iControl service) can be managed by a service provider via browser-based Maintenance and Service Management applications that are provided with the iConnect Servers. Or, if desired, the service can be more tightly integrated with existing OSS/BSS and service delivery systems via the iConnect web services-based XML APIs.
The integrated security system service can also coordinate the sending of alarms to the home security Central Monitoring Station (CMS) 1299. Alarms are passed to the CMS 1299 using standard protocols such as Contact ID or SIA and can be generated from the home security panel location as well as by iConnect server 1204 conditions (such as lack of communications with the integrated security system). In addition, the link between the security servers 1204 and CMS 1299 provides tighter integration between home security and self-monitoring devices and the gateway 1202. Such integration enables advanced security capabilities such as the ability for CMS personnel to view photos taken at the time a burglary alarm was triggered. For maximum security, the gateway 1202 and iConnect servers 1204 support the use of a mobile network (both GPRS and CDMA options are available) as a backup to the primary broadband connection.
The integrated security system service is delivered by hosted servers running software components that communicate with a variety of client types while interacting with other systems.
The iConnect servers 1204 support a diverse collection of clients 1220 ranging from mobile devices, to PCs, to in-home security devices, to a service provider's internal systems. Most clients 1220 are used by end-users, but there are also a number of clients 1220 that are used to operate the service.
Clients 1220 used by end-users of the integrated security system 1200 include, but are not limited to, the following:
Clients based on gateway client applications 1302 (e.g., a processor-based device running the gateway technology that manages home security and automation devices).
A web browser 1304 accessing a Web Portal application, performing end-user configuration and customization of the integrated security system service as well as monitoring of in-home device status, viewing photos and video, etc. Device and user management can also be performed by this portal application.
A mobile device 1306 (e.g., PDA, mobile phone, etc.) accessing the integrated security system Mobile Portal. This type of client 1306 is used by end-users to view system status and perform operations on devices (e.g., turning on a lamp, arming a security panel, etc.) rather than for system configuration tasks such as adding a new device or user.
PC or browser-based “widget” containers 1308 that present integrated security system service content, as well as other third-party content, in simple, targeted ways (e.g. a widget that resides on a PC desktop and shows live video from a single in-home camera). “Widget” as used herein means applications or programs in the system.
Touchscreen home security keypads 1308 and advanced in-home devices that present a variety of content widgets via an intuitive touchscreen user interface.
Notification recipients 1310 (e.g., cell phones that receive SMS-based notifications when certain events occur (or don't occur), email clients that receive an email message with similar information, etc.).
Custom-built clients (not shown) that access the iConnect web services XML API to interact with users' home security and self-monitoring information in new and unique ways. Such clients could include new types of mobile devices, or complex applications where integrated security system content is integrated into a broader set of application features.
In addition to the end-user clients, the iConnect servers 1204 support PC browser-based Service Management clients that manage the ongoing operation of the overall service. These clients run applications that handle tasks such as provisioning, service monitoring, customer support and reporting.
There are numerous types of server components of the iConnect servers 1204 of an embodiment including, but not limited to, the following: Business Components which manage information about all of the home security and self-monitoring devices; End-User Application Components which display that information for users and access the Business Components via published XML APIs; and Service Management Application Components which enable operators to administer the service (these components also access the Business Components via the XML APIs, and also via published SNMP MIBs).
The server components provide access to, and management of, the objects associated with an integrated security system installation. The top-level object is the “network.” It is a location where a gateway 1202 is located, and is also commonly referred to as a site or premises; the premises can include any type of structure (e.g., home, office, warehouse, etc.) at which a gateway 1202 is located. Users can only access the networks to which they have been granted permission. Within a network, every object monitored by the gateway 1202 is called a device. Devices include the sensors, cameras, home security panels and automation devices, as well as the controller or processor-based device running the gateway applications.
Various types of interactions are possible between the objects in a system. Automations define actions that occur as a result of a change in state of a device. For example, take a picture with the front entry camera when the front door sensor changes to “open”. Notifications are messages sent to users to indicate that something has occurred, such as the front door going to “open” state, or has not occurred (referred to as an iWatch notification). Schedules define changes in device states that are to take place at predefined days and times. For example, set the security panel to “Armed” mode every weeknight at 11:00 pm.
The iConnect Business Components are responsible for orchestrating all of the low-level service management activities for the integrated security system service. They define all of the users and devices associated with a network (site), analyze how the devices interact, and trigger associated actions (such as sending notifications to users). All changes in device states are monitored and logged. The Business Components also manage all interactions with external systems as required, including sending alarms and other related self-monitoring data to the home security Central Monitoring System (CMS) 1299. The Business Components are implemented as portable Java J2EE Servlets, but are not so limited.
The following iConnect Business Components manage the main elements of the integrated security system service, but the embodiment is not so limited:
Additional iConnect Business Components handle direct communications with certain clients and other systems, for example:
The iConnect Business Components store information about the objects that they manage in the iControl Service Database 1340 and in the iControl Content Store 1342. The iControl Content Store is used to store media objects like video, photos and widget content, while the Service Database stores information about users, networks, and devices. Database interaction is performed via a JDBC interface. For security purposes, the Business Components manage all data storage and retrieval.
The iControl Business Components provide web services-based APIs that application components use to access the Business Components' capabilities. Functions of application components include presenting integrated security system service data to end-users, performing administrative duties, and integrating with external systems and back-office applications.
The primary published APIs for the iConnect Business Components include, but are not limited to, the following:
Each API of an embodiment includes two modes of access: Java API or XML API. The XML APIs are published as web services so that they can be easily accessed by applications or servers over a network. The Java APIs are a programmer-friendly wrapper for the XML APIs. Application components and integrations written in Java should generally use the Java APIs rather than the XML APIs directly.
The iConnect Business Components also have an XML-based interface 1360 for quickly adding support for new devices to the integrated security system. This interface 1360, referred to as DeviceConnect 1360, is a flexible, standards-based mechanism for defining the properties of new devices and how they can be managed. Although the format is flexible enough to allow the addition of any type of future device, pre-defined XML profiles are currently available for adding common types of devices such as sensors (SensorConnect), home security panels (PanelConnect) and IP cameras (CameraConnect).
The iConnect End-User Application Components deliver the user interfaces that run on the different types of clients supported by the integrated security system service. The components are written in portable Java J2EE technology (e.g., as Java Servlets, as JavaServer Pages (JSPs), etc.) and they all interact with the iControl Business Components via the published APIs.
The following End-User Application Components generate CSS-based HTML/JavaScript that is displayed on the target client. These applications can be dynamically branded with partner-specific logos and URL links (such as Customer Support, etc.). The End-User Application Components of an embodiment include, but are not limited to, the following:
A number of Application Components are responsible for overall management of the service. These pre-defined applications, referred to as Service Management Application Components, are configured to offer off-the-shelf solutions for production management of the integrated security system service including provisioning, overall service monitoring, customer support, and reporting, for example. The Service Management Application Components of an embodiment include, but are not limited to, the following:
The iConnect servers 1204 also support custom-built integrations with a service provider's existing OSS/BSS, CSR and service delivery systems 1390. Such systems can access the iConnect web services XML API to transfer data to and from the iConnect servers 1204. These types of integrations can compliment or replace the PC browser-based Service Management applications, depending on service provider needs.
As described above, the integrated security system of an embodiment includes a gateway, or iHub. The gateway of an embodiment includes a device that is deployed in the home or business and couples or connects the various third-party cameras, home security panels, sensors and devices to the iConnect server over a WAN connection as described in detail herein. The gateway couples to the home network and communicates directly with the home security panel in both wired and wireless sensor installations. The gateway is configured to be low-cost, reliable and thin so that it complements the integrated security system network-based architecture.
The gateway supports various wireless protocols and can interconnect with a wide range of home security control panels. Service providers and users can then extend the system's capabilities by adding IP cameras, lighting modules and additional security devices. The gateway is configurable to be integrated into many consumer appliances, including set-top boxes, routers and security panels. The small and efficient footprint of the gateway enables this portability and versatility, thereby simplifying and reducing the overall cost of the deployment.
The gateway application layer 1402 is the main program that orchestrates the operations performed by the gateway. The Security Engine 1404 provides robust protection against intentional and unintentional intrusion into the integrated security system network from the outside world (both from inside the premises as well as from the WAN). The Security Engine 1404 of an embodiment comprises one or more sub-modules or components that perform functions including, but not limited to, the following:
As standards evolve, and new encryption and authentication methods are proven to be useful, and older mechanisms proven to be breakable, the security manager can be upgraded “over the air” to provide new and better security for communications between the iConnect server and the gateway application, and locally at the premises to remove any risk of eavesdropping on camera communications.
A Remote Firmware Download module 1406 allows for seamless and secure updates to the gateway firmware through the iControl Maintenance Application on the server 1204, providing a transparent, hassle-free mechanism for the service provider to deploy new features and bug fixes to the installed user base. The firmware download mechanism is tolerant of connection loss, power interruption and user interventions (both intentional and unintentional). Such robustness reduces down time and customer support issues. Gateway firmware can be remotely download either for one gateway at a time, a group of gateways, or in batches.
The Automations engine 1408 manages the user-defined rules of interaction between the different devices (e.g. when door opens turn on the light). Though the automation rules are programmed and reside at the portal/server level, they are cached at the gateway level in order to provide short latency between device triggers and actions.
DeviceConnect 1410 includes definitions of all supported devices (e.g., cameras, security panels, sensors, etc.) using a standardized plug-in architecture. The DeviceConnect module 1410 offers an interface that can be used to quickly add support for any new device as well as enabling interoperability between devices that use different technologies/protocols. For common device types, pre-defined sub-modules have been defined, making supporting new devices of these types even easier. SensorConnect 1412 is provided for adding new sensors, CameraConnect 1416 for adding IP cameras, and PanelConnect 1414 for adding home security panels.
The Schedules engine 1418 is responsible for executing the user defined schedules (e.g., take a picture every five minutes; every day at 8 am set temperature to 65 degrees Fahrenheit, etc.). Though the schedules are programmed and reside at the iConnect server level they are sent to the scheduler within the gateway application. The Schedules Engine 1418 then interfaces with SensorConnect 1412 to ensure that scheduled events occur at precisely the desired time.
The Device Management module 1420 is in charge of all discovery, installation and configuration of both wired and wireless IP devices (e.g., cameras, etc.) coupled or connected to the system. Networked IP devices, such as those used in the integrated security system, require user configuration of many IP and security parameters—to simplify the user experience and reduce the customer support burden, the device management module of an embodiment handles the details of this configuration. The device management module also manages the video routing module described below.
The video routing engine 1422 is responsible for delivering seamless video streams to the user with zero-configuration. Through a multi-step, staged approach the video routing engine uses a combination of UPnP port-forwarding, relay server routing and STUN/TURN peer-to-peer routing.
Referring to the WAN portion 1510 of the gateway 1202, the gateway 1202 of an embodiment can communicate with the iConnect server using a number of communication types and/or protocols, for example Broadband 1512, GPRS 1514 and/or Public Switched Telephone Network (PTSN) 1516 to name a few. In general, broadband communication 1512 is the primary means of connection between the gateway 1202 and the iConnect server 1204 and the GPRS/CDMA 1514 and/or PSTN 1516 interfaces acts as back-up for fault tolerance in case the user's broadband connection fails for whatever reason, but the embodiment is not so limited.
Referring to the LAN portion 1520 of the gateway 1202, various protocols and physical transceivers can be used to communicate to off-the-shelf sensors and cameras. The gateway 1202 is protocol-agnostic and technology-agnostic and as such can easily support almost any device networking protocol. The gateway 1202 can, for example, support GE and Honeywell security RF protocols 1522, Z-Wave 1524, serial (RS232 and RS485) 1526 for direct connection to security panels as well as WiFi 1528 (802.11b/g) for communication to WiFi cameras.
