Door lock system with one or more virtual fences
An intelligent door lock system is coupled to a door at a dwelling. A sensor is at the dwelling. The sensor is coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device at the door. The lock device is coupled to the sensor and includes a bolt. An engine, an energy source and a memory are coupled together. A camera is coupled to or part of the intelligent door lock system. The camera is configured to define a safe zone in the dwelling in which an occupant, and a non dwelling occupant third person is allowed into the dwelling.
1. An intelligent door lock system coupled to a door at a building and for determining whether a non-building occupant granted limited access to the building has exceeded the limited access, comprising:
a sensor at the building, the sensor being coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of the lock device at the door, the lock device coupled to the sensor and including a bolt;
at least one camera to capture one or more images relating to a zone within the building, the zone including a first virtual fence and a second virtual fence to delimit the zone within the building; and
at least one processor configured to:
detect motion within or outside the zone;
in response to detecting motion within or outside the zone, analyze a first set of the one or more captured images to determine a presence of a person;
determine whether the person is a building occupant or a non-building occupant based on whether the person is registered or not registered with the intelligent door lock system;
in response to determining that the person is the non-building occupant, analyze a second set of the one or more captured images to determine whether the non-building occupant has crossed the first virtual fence;
in response to determining that the non-building occupant has crossed the first virtual fence, analyze the crossing of the first virtual fence to determine whether the non-building occupant with the limited access has breached the first virtual fence and exceeded the limited access of the non-building occupant;
in response to determining that the non-building occupant has breached the first virtual fence and exceeded the limited access of the non-building occupant, trigger an alert;
at a time subsequent to the non-building occupant crossing the first virtual fence, analyze a third set of the one or more captured images to determine whether the non-building occupant has crossed the second virtual fence;
in response to determining that the non-building occupant has crossed the second virtual fence, analyze the crossing of the second virtual fence to determine whether the non-building occupant with the limited access has breached the second virtual fence and exceeded the limited access of the non-building occupant, wherein the second virtual fence is further from the door than the first virtual fence; and
in response to determining that the non-building occupant has breached the second virtual fence and exceeded the limited access of the non-building occupant, trigger the alert.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein
triggering the alert comprises triggering one or more notifications to: an occupant's mobile device, vocal warning, and/or a communication with authorities.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to operate at least the first virtual fence and the second virtual fence to delimit multiple concentric zones, the zone being one of the multiple concentric zones.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein triggering the alert comprises triggering a vocal warning responsive to the first virtual fence being breached, and/or triggering an alarm responsive to the second virtual fence being breached.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein one or more of the at least one camera has a wide field of view.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view is up to 180 degrees.
7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view is at least 180 degrees.
8. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for viewing an interior of the building.
9. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for viewing an exterior of the building.
10. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for viewing an approach of a person to the building.
11. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for viewing activities at an interior or at an exterior of the building.
12. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for monitoring a person at an interior or exterior near the building.
13. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for viewing a locking and/or locking of the door.
14. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for viewing an attempt to tamper with the door or lock.
15. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for viewing, a person exiting the building.
16. The system of claim 5 , wherein the wide field of view allows for viewing activities of a person at the exterior or interior of the building.
17. The system of claim 5 , wherein one or more of the at least one camera is integrated with a doorbell.
18. The system of claim 5 , wherein one or more of the at least one camera allows for a building occupant to see and speak with a third party viewed by the at least one camera.
19. The system of claim 5 , wherein one or more of the at least one camera is integrated with a keypad.
20. The system of claim 5 , wherein one or more of the at least one camera is configured to be a door sensor.
21. The system of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to determine open or closed door status and/or a change in door status from open to closed or closed to open.
22. The system of claim 21 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to use an open or close status of the door to operate the lock and/or to trigger alarms.
23. The system of claim 1 , wherein the zone is a first zone within the building, and the unpermitted area outside the zone is a second zone within the building.
24. An intelligent door lock system coupled to a door at a building and for determining whether a non-building occupant granted limited access to the building has exceeded the limited access, comprising:
a sensor at the building, the sensor being coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of the lock device at the door, the lock device coupled to the sensor and including a bolt;
at least one camera to:
capture one or more images relating to a zone within the building, the zone including a first virtual fence and a second virtual fence to delimit the zone within the building;
detect motion within or outside the zone;
in response to detecting motion within or outside the zone, analyze at least some of the one or more captured images to determine a presence of a person;
determine whether the person is a building occupant or a non-building occupant based on whether the person is registered or not registered with the intelligent door lock system;
in response to determining that the person is the non-building occupant, analyze at least some of the one or more captured images to determine whether the non-building occupant has crossed the first virtual fence;
in response to determining that the non-building occupant has crossed the first virtual fence, analyze the crossing of the first virtual fence to determine whether the non-building occupant with the limited access has breached the first virtual fence and exceeded the limited access of the non-building occupant;
in response to determining that the non-building occupant has breached the first virtual fence and exceeded the limited access of the non-building occupant, trigger an alert;
at a time subsequent to the non-building occupant crossing the first virtual fence, analyze at least some of the one or more captured images to determine whether the non-building occupant has crossed the second virtual fence;
in response to determining that the non-building occupant has crossed the second virtual fence, analyze the crossing of the second virtual fence to determine whether the non-building occupant with the limited access has breached the second virtual fence and exceeded the limited access of the non-building occupant, wherein the second virtual fence is further from the door than the first virtual fence; and
in response to determining that the non-building occupant has breached the second virtual fence and exceeded the limited access of the non-building occupant, trigger the alert.
