    Abstract: A network-connected security device is communicatively coupled to an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device having a camera and a speaker. A method receives video data captured by the camera, and performs an object recognition algorithm upon the received video data to identify an object therein. The method performs a table lookup using the identified object, into a data structure that associates objects with at least one description of a predefined voice message. The method selects a description of a predefined voice message associated with the identified object, and transmits the selected description's predefined voice message to the A/V recording and communication device for output through the speaker.

    Abstract: This application describes techniques for detecting a single event based on consecutive actions. For instance, a network device may associate a first electronic device that includes a first field of view (FOV) with a second electronic device that includes a second FOV. When the network device receives data indicating that the first electronic device detected possible motion, the network device may transmit a first message to a client device. Additionally, when the network device receives data indicating that the second electronic device detected motion within a threshold period of time to the first electronic device detecting the motion, the network device may not transmit a second message. Determining not to transmit the second message may be based on characteristics of the electronic devices, such as locations of the electronic devices, fields of view of the electronic devices, or a distance between the electronic device devices.

    Abstract: A garage door is controlled to open using an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device. The device detects a vehicle within an area about the garage door and receives, using a camera, image data representative of an object associated with the vehicle. The device also compares the image data representative of the object associated with the vehicle with previously stored image data and identifies the object based on the comparing of the image data representative of the object with the previously stored image data. The device also authenticates an electronic device within the vehicle that is associated with the object by wirelessly communicating with the electronic device and determines, based at least in part on the authenticating of the electronic device within the vehicle, that the vehicle is an authorized vehicle. The device also transmits an actuation command to the garage door to cause the garage door to open.

    Abstract: The A/V recording and communication devices used in a security system may be configured to detect motion, and to track and report that motion to a building resident. Some residents may wish to customize the tracking and reporting of motion based upon where and when the motion is detected. For example, a user may wish to be alerted when cars drive down her residential street at night, but does not wish to be alerted when cars drive down the street during the day. The present embodiments disclose several tools and methods by which a building resident can configure and manage the tracking and reporting of detected motion. To do so, the resident should configure two or more motion zones within the field of view captured by a camera, together with a set of time windows during which she wishes to track or be notified of detected motion.
