Abstract:
A security system includes a control panel and sensors for monitoring conditions related to the security of a residential or commercial location. The control panel communicates with the sensors and displays information related to the operation of the security system. The control panel may also receive user input. User input can be received at a touch-sensitive display on the control panel. The touch-sensitive display may be adapted to receive and recognize multiple, simultaneous touches. Different types of touches can be associated with different actions taken by the touch-sensitive display. Detection of types of touches can also include gesture identification. A haptic response may also be provided for giving tactile feedback when input is received at the control panel.
Abstract:
The present systems and methods are directed to a security or automation system that is configured for monitoring health and exercise conditions of an individual. A security or automation system may include at least one sensor for sensing a medical condition and at least one module for receiving sensed data from the at least one sensor. The security or automation system may further include a communication device for conveying information based on the sensed data to a remote site.
