An automation system may include a smart doorman. The system may observe one or more guests to a residence, predict a user profile associated with the guest, and invite an administrator of the automation system to create the suggested profile of the guest. The system may store one or more biometric identifiers with a visitation pattern to determine if the guest requires a profile. In one embodiment, a method for security and/or automation systems may be described. The method may include detecting the presence of one or more guests at an entrance to a residence and comparing the presence of a guest to one or more profile parameters. A guest profile associated with the guest may be predicted based at least in part on the comparing.
1. A method for a security and/or automation system, comprising:
tracking, by a processor, a presence of one or more guests at an entrance to a residence over a pre-determined period of time;
recording, by the processor, visitation parameters of the one or more guests based at least in part on the tracking over the pre-determined period of time;
analyzing the visitation parameters based at least in part on the recording;
generating an inactive profile based at least in part on the analyzing;
detecting, by the processor the presence of the one or more guests at the entrance to the residence;
comparing, by the processor, the presence of a guest to one or more inactive profile parameters, wherein the one or more inactive profile parameters are based at least in part on the recorded visitation parameters over the pre-determined period of time;
providing, by the processor, a suggested guest profile to an administrator of the automation system based at least in part on the inactive profile;
requesting input from the administrator to approve, edit, or reject the suggested guest profile;
receiving administrator input to approve the suggested guest profile; and
activating the suggested guest profile based at least in part on the receiving.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
storing one or more visitation parameters with the inactive profile.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the suggested guest profile comprises one or more access parameters.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the one or more access parameters comprises one or more of a predetermined time period of access, a daily timeframe access, and access areas.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
comparing the detecting to a presence of at least one user of the automation system.
6. An apparatus for a security and/or automation system, comprising:
a processor;
memory in electronic communication with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable by the processor to:
track, by a processor, a presence of one or more guests at an entrance to a residence over a pre-determined period of time;
record, by the processor, visitation parameters of the one or more guests based at least in part on the tracking over the pre-determined period of time;
analyze the visitation parameters based at least in part on the recording;
generate an inactive profile based at least in part on the analyzing;
detect, by the processor the presence of the one or more guests at the entrance to the residence;
compare, by the processor, the presence of a guest to one or more inactive profile parameters, wherein the one or more inactive profile parameters are based at least in part on the recorded visitation parameters over the pre-determined period of time;
provide, by the processor, a suggested guest profile to an administrator of the automation system based at least in part on the inactive profile;
request input from the administrator to approve, edit, or reject the suggested guest profile;
receive administrator input to approve the suggested guest profile; and
activate the suggested guest profile based at least in part on the receiving.
7. The apparatus of claim 6 , the instructions further executable to:
store one or more visitation parameters with the inactive profile.
8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable code, the code executable by a processor to:
track, by a processor, a presence of one or more guests at an entrance to a residence over a pre-determined period of time;
record, by the processor, visitation parameters of the one or more guests based at least in part on the tracking over the pre-determined period of time;
analyze the visitation parameters based at least in part on the recording;
generate an inactive profile based at least in part on the analyzing;
detect, by the processor the presence of the one or more guests at the entrance to the residence;
compare, by the processor, the presence of a guest to one or more inactive profile parameters, wherein the one or more inactive profile parameters are based at least in part on the recorded visitation parameters over the pre-determined period of time;
provide, by the processor, a suggested guest profile to an administrator of the automation system based at least in part on the inactive profile;
request input from the administrator to approve, edit, or reject the suggested guest profile;
receive administrator input to approve the suggested guest profile; and
activate the suggested guest profile based at least in part on the receiving.
