Abstract

A system monitors a person in a dwelling. A detection device is in communication with the user monitoring device. The detection device includes at least one motion/movement gesture sensing device configured to detect at least one of a person's motion, movement and gesture. A user monitoring device includes at least two elements selected from: a proximity sensor; a temperature sensor/humidity sensor; a particulate sensor; a light sensor; a microphone; a speaker; two RF transmitters (BLE/ANT+WIFI); a memory card; and LED's. A packaging is provided for the detection device with a magnet and a reed switch during shipment.

Claims (45)

1 . A system for monitoring a person in a dwelling, comprising:

a detection device in communication with the user monitoring device, the detection device including at least one motion/movement gesture sensing device configured to detect at least one of a person's motion, movement and gesture;

a user monitoring device including at least two elements selected from: a proximity sensor; a temperature sensor/humidity sensor; a particulate sensor; a light sensor; a microphone; a speaker; two RF transmitters (BLE/ANT+WIFI); a memory card; and LED's; and

a packaging for the detection device with a magnet and a reed.

2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the magnet activates the reed switch which keeps the detection device in a low power mode.

3 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the low power mode preserves a detection device 42 battery life during storage and shipment.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein once a user receives the packaging and removes the motion detection device the reed switch is deactivated and the detection device is turned on.

5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein a distance between the magnet and reed switch is no greater than 2 mm

6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the magnet produces no more than 3000 gauss.

7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes an outer shell.

8 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a protective cover.

9 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a top circuit board.

10 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a microphone.

11 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a speaker module.

12 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a circuit board support structure.

13 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a protective quadrant.

14 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a middle circuit board.

15 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a particulate air duct.

16 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a particulate sensor.

17 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a center support structure.

18 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a light emitter.

19 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a bottom circuit board.

20 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a temperature sensor.

21 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a base.

22 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a plurality of ports.

23 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a plurality of ports selected from at least one of a port that: (i) allows light to be transmitted from an interior of the monitor device to the user for visual feedback, (ii) a port for a proximity sensor and (iii) one or more ports that allows for the introduction of air.

24 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes four different printed circuit boards (PCBs).

25 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a top PCB with an ambient light sensor, a proximity sensor, a microphone and speaker module.

26 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes the bottom PCB has a temperature/humidity sensor and a USB for wall charging.

27 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes a battery pact.

28 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device includes air ducting inside the monitor device to direct particulates towards a particulate sensor.

27 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device provides feedback to the user.

28 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user monitoring device lights up to indicate either that the user is alarmed, that something is wrong, or if everything is ok. This provides quick feedback to the user.

29 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a front shell.

30 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes an emitter gasket.

31 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a circuit board.

32 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a front support structure.

33 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a spring steel.

34 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes an elastomer foot

35 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a rear support structure.

36 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a battery terminal.

37 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a terminal insulting film.

38 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a coin cell battery.

39 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes a back shell

40 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the detection device includes is located external to a monitor device that includes one or more sensors.
