Property event tracking systems and methods
Systems and methods described herein facilitate the tracking of events relating to property. For example, in certain embodiments, a system includes a property event detection device (e.g., smart home device, sensor device, and so forth) configured to detect activity (e.g., motion, light, sound, and so forth) proximate the property. The system also includes a property event tracking system configured to receive data (e.g., images, videos, facial recognition, movement recognition, object tracking, sound signatures, wireless data streams, and so forth) relating to the activity from the property event detection device, to determine whether the activity relates to a property event (e.g., home service, and so forth) for the property, and to store data relating to the property event in a distributed ledger (e.g., blockchain network) upon determination that the activity relates to the property event for the property.
1. A system, comprising:
a property event detection device comprising one or more sensors configured to detect activity proximate a property, wherein the detected activity comprises detected patterns of physical movements of a person; and
a property event tracking system configured to receive data relating to the detected activity from the property event detection device, to determine whether the detected patterns of physical movements of the person indicate that a type of home service has been performed by the person for the property by comparing data relating to the detected patterns of physical movements of the person to data relating to service-related patterns of physical movements that are stored in memory of the property event tracking system, and to store data relating to the home service in a distributed blockchain network upon determination that the detected patterns of physical movements of the person indicate that the type of home service has been performed by the person for the property, wherein the service-related patterns of physical movements correlate to particular types of home services.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the property event detection device comprises a smart home device associated with the property.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the smart home device comprises a smart appliance, a home entertainment system, an in-home control system, a lighting device, a utility system, or a portable computing device.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the home service comprises house cleaning, lawn maintenance, pool cleaning, or some combination thereof.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the property event tracking system is configured to authorize payment for the home service via the distributed blockchain network.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the property event tracking system is configured to facilitate resolution of a dispute relating to the home service.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the property event tracking system is configured to trigger a second home service upon determination that the detected patterns of physical movements of the person indicate that the type of home service has been performed by the person for the property.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the property event tracking system is configured to activate a security system based at least in part on the detected activity.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the property event tracking system is configured to automatically adjust a direction of detection of a sensor of the one or more sensors of the property event detection device.
10. A method, comprising:
receiving, via a property event tracking system, data relating to detected activity proximate a property from a property event detection device comprising one or more sensors configured to detect the activity, wherein the detected activity comprises detected patterns of physical movements of a person;
determining, via the property event tracking system, whether the detected patterns of physical movements of the person indicate that a type of home service has been performed by the person for the property by comparing data relating to the detected patterns of physical movements of the person to data relating to service-related patterns of physical movements that are stored in memory of the property event tracking system; and
storing, via the property event tracking system, data relating to the home service in a distributed blockchain network upon determination that the detected patterns of physical movements of the person indicate that the type of home service has been performed by the person for the property, wherein the service-related patterns of physical movements correlate to particular types of home services.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the property event detection device comprises a smart home device associated with the property.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the smart home device comprises a smart appliance, a home entertainment system, an in-home control system, a lighting device, a utility system, or a portable computing device.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the home service comprises house cleaning, lawn maintenance, pool cleaning, or some combination thereof.
14. The method of claim 10 , comprising authorizing, via the property event tracking system, payment for the home service via the distributed blockchain network.
15. The method of claim 10 , comprising facilitating, via the property event tracking system, resolution of a dispute relating to the home service.
16. The method of claim 10 , comprising triggering, via the property event tracking system, a second home service upon determination that the detected patterns of physical movements of the person indicate that the type of home service has been performed by the person for the property.
17. The method of claim 10 , comprising activating, via the property event tracking system, a security system based at least in part on the detected activity.
18. The method of claim 10 , comprising automatically adjusting, via the property event tracking system, a direction of detection of a sensor of the one or more sensors of the property event detection device.
