IMAGE BASED HVAC
Methods and systems for image based HVAC control are described. In one embodiments, the systems and methods include detecting a presence of a person that satisfies a predetermined age criteria in a first room of a premises, determining a current temperature of the first room, determining a temperature setting associated with the first room, and adjusting one or more aspects of a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system based on the presence of the person in the first room of the premises.
1 . A method for routing messages, comprising:
detecting a presence of a person that satisfies a predetermined age criteria in a first room of a premises;
determining a current temperature of the first room;
determining a temperature setting associated with the first room; and
adjusting one or more aspects of a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system based on the presence of the person in the first room of the premises.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the temperature of the first room is determined by one or more thermistors, the one or more thermistors being located in a camera located in the first room.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the presence of the person in the first room is detected based at least in part on an image of the person captured by the camera.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein adjusting the one or more aspects of the HVAC system includes:
calculating a difference between the current temperature of the first room and the temperature setting associated with the first room; and
adjusting the HVAC system based on the calculated difference.
5 . The method of claim 1 , comprising:
detecting one or more aspects of the person; and
adjusting the HVAC system based at least in part on the detecting one or more aspects of the person, wherein the one or more aspects of the person include respiratory rate, heartbeat, body temperature.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein adjusting the one or more aspects of the HVAC system includes:
prioritizing operation of the HVAC system in favor of the first room of the premises over a second room of the premises.
7 . The method of claim 6 , comprising:
detecting the person leaving the first room of the premises and entering the second room of the premises; and
adjusting one or more aspects of the HVAC system based on the person leaving the first room of the premises.
8 . The method of claim 6 , comprising:
upon identifying the presence of the person in the second room for at least a preset period of time, prioritizing operation of the HVAC system in favor of the second room of the premises over the first room of the premises.
9 . The method of claim 6 , comprising:
detecting the person in motion in relation to the person leaving the first room and entering the second room.
10 . The method of claim 9 , comprising:
balancing operation of the HVAC system between the first and second rooms while the person is detected as being in motion, wherein the person is detected as being in motion until the person remains in a room of the premises for a preset period of time.
11 . An apparatus for an 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 perform the steps of:
detecting a presence of a person that satisfies a predetermined age criteria in a first room of a premises;
determining a current temperature of the first room;
determining a temperature setting associated with the first room; and
adjusting one or more aspects of a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system based on the presence of the person in the first room of the premises.
12 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the temperature of the first room is determined by one or more thermistors, the one or more thermistors being located in a camera located in the first room.
13 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the presence of the person in the first room is detected based at least in part on an image of the person captured by the camera.
14 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein adjusting the one or more aspects of the HVAC system includes:
calculating a difference between the current temperature of the first room and the temperature setting associated with the first room; and
adjusting the HVAC system based on the calculated difference.
15 . The apparatus of claim 11 , the instructions being executable by the processor to perform the step of:
detecting one or more aspects of the person; and
adjusting the HVAC system based at least in part on the detecting one or more aspects of the person, wherein the one or more aspects of the person include respiratory rate, heartbeat, body temperature.
16 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein adjusting the one or more aspects of the HVAC system includes prioritizing operation of the HVAC system in favor of the first room of the premises over a second room of the premises.
17 . The apparatus of claim 16 , the instructions being executable by the processor to perform the step of:
detecting the person leaving the first room of the premises and entering the second room of the premises; and
adjusting one or more aspects of the HVAC system based on the person leaving the first room of the premises.
18 . The apparatus of claim 16 , the instructions being executable by the processor to perform the step of:
upon identifying the presence of the person in the second room for at least a preset period of time, prioritizing operation of the HVAC system in favor of the second room of the premises over the first room of the premises.
19 . The apparatus of claim 16 , the instructions being executable by the processor to perform the steps of:
detecting the person in motion in relation to the person leaving the first room and entering the second room.
20 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable code for an automation system, the code executable by a processor to perform the steps of:
detecting a presence of a person that satisfies a predetermined age criteria in a first room of a premises;
determining a current temperature of the first room;
determining a temperature setting associated with the first room; and
adjusting one or more aspects of a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system based on the presence of the person in the first room of the premises.
