Abstract: Some aspects of the present embodiments provide a method for setting an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device in a parcel protection mode. The method receives, form the A/V recording and communication device, a notification about a parcel being placed within an area about the A/V recording and communication device. The method receives a request for activating the parcel protection mode. Upon receiving the request, the method sends an activation signal to the A/V recording and communication device to set the A/V recording and communication device in the parcel protection mode.

Abstract: A premises security system for providing audio simulating occupancy of a premises. The system includes a video doorbell having a presence sensor and a security hub component communicatively coupled with the video doorbell. The security hub component includes a microphone for capturing sound within the premises, at least one speaker positioned within the premises, an audio driver for driving the speaker, a storage device, and a processor coupled to the microphone, the storage device, and the audio driver. The processor executes machine-readable instructions that control the processor to: capture, using the microphone, audio content of sounds within the premises; store the audio content in the storage device; and control the audio driver to play the audio content through the speaker in response to receiving an indication of the presence of a visitor from the video doorbell.

Abstract: An audio/video (A/V) device may include or accommodate a viewer through a barrier. For example, an A/V device may include a first component for installation on an exterior surface of a door, a second component for installation on an interior surface of the door, a viewer that extends through an opening in the door, and a flexible connector that electrically couples the first component and the second component. The A/V device may enable use of an existing hole in the door as part of a door viewer, while also providing the functionality of an A/V device. For example, the A/V device may be configured to receive an input using a button on the first component, generate image data using a camera on the first component, and send the image data to a network device.

Abstract: A method includes receiving video data from an A/V recording and communication device (A/V device) having a camera, the video data representing an object in a field of view (FOV) of the camera. The method further includes receiving, from the A/V device, identifying information for a wireless device proximate the object in the FOV of the camera (the FOV identifying information). The method further includes, after receiving the FOV identifying information, storing the video data and the FOV identifying information in a memory. The method further includes receiving identifying information for one or more wireless devices associated with activity of interest (the identifying information of interest). The method further includes determining that the FOV identifying information matches the identifying information of interest. The method further includes, after determining that the FOV identifying information matches the identifying information of interest, creating a record associating the video data with activity of interest.
