Abstract: Various arrangements of smart devices and systems are presented. Such smart devices and systems may include a wireless interface, a light sensor that detects an ambient brightness level of an ambient environment of the smart device, a motion sensor that detects motion of a user in the ambient environment of the smart device, a light that is capable of outputting light into the ambient environment of the smart device, and a processing system. The processing system may cause the light to illuminate based on: the message indicating that the lighting feature has been activated; the ambient brightness level being below the threshold brightness value; and the user moving in the ambient environment of the smart device or system.

Abstract: An electrical connector that may include a socket body and that includes four lateral walls, a rear wall, a catch feature and a catch support. The lateral walls may adjoin one another and the rear wall. The catch support may adjoin two of the lateral walls along edges of the catch support to define a catch cavity and a plug cavity on opposing sides of the catch support. A first side of the rear wall may face the plug cavity and a second side bounds a rear surface of the socket body. The catch feature may couple with the catch support. Electrical pins may pass through the rear wall of the socket body such that one end of each of the pins is within the plug cavity, and an opposing end of each of the pins extends away from the rear surface of the socket body.

Abstract: A method for guiding installation of smart-home devices may include capturing, by a camera of a mobile computing device, a view of an installation location for a smart-home device; rendering, by the mobile computing device, a view of a virtual object that represents a real-world obstruction that will interfere with the operation or installation of the smart-home device; and displaying, by the mobile computing device, the view of a virtual object that represents real-world obstruction with the view of the installation location on the display of the mobile computing device.

Abstract: Various arrangements for light distribution incorporated as part of a device are presented. A circular light guide may be used that receives light from a plurality of light emitters that can be arranged in a circular pattern. A conical reflector may be used and may be positioned to reflect light emitted from the circular light guide onto an exterior of a case of the device. The conical reflector may reflect light such that light is reflected by the exterior of the case in the shape of a halo into an ambient environment of the device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for forecasting events can be provided. A measurement database can store sensor measurements, each having been provided by a non-portable electronic device with a primary purpose unrelated to collecting measurements from a type of sensor that collected the measurement. A measurement set identifier can select a set of measurements. The electronic devices associated with the set of measurements can be in close geographical proximity relative to their geographical proximity to other devices. An inter-device correlator can access the set and collectively analyze the measurements. An event detector can determine whether an event occurred. An event forecaster can forecast a future event property. An alert engine can identify one or more entities to be alerted of the future event property, generate at least one alert identifying the future event property, and transmit the at least one alert to the identified one or more entities.

Abstract: Various arrangements of a surface mount system are presented herein. The system may include a surface mount plate. The surface mount plate may include a circular lip and nubs located along the circular lip. The system may also include a device housing. The device housing can include slider clips that removably clip to the circular lip of the surface mount plate when the plurality of slider clips are pushed against the circular lip. The slider clips can be disengaged from the circular lip of the surface mount plate when the device housing is rotated with respect to the surface mount plate such that the nubs located on the surface mount plate push the slider clips away from the circular lip.

Abstract: A surface mount plate may include a plate having attachment mounting points that allow fasteners to secure the surface mount plate to a surface such that the surface mount plate is mounted in a fixed position on the surface. The surface mount plate may include a circular lip extending around at least a portion of the plate, the circular lip having distributed lip gaps. A sensor housing may include multiple sliders that couple with the circular lip of the surface mount plate when the sliders are aligned and inserted into the plurality of distributed lip gaps of the circular lip and the sensor housing is rotated. The sliders may slide along the lip to allow the housing to be rotated while the sensor housing remains coupled with the surface mount plate.
