Abstract: A method of synchronizing includes providing a sensor network including sensor nodes having object recognition sensors (ORS's) and building automation network nodes. The ORS's have partially overlapping fields of view in a sensed overlap area in the building. Movement of an individual through the sensed overlap area triggers dynamic synchronizing with the first sensor node waking up and sending a first RF request to join a subnet and for a schedule of wakeup times, the first sensor node receiving a response from any sensor node that receives the first request including synchronization information having times the first sensor node should wake up. The second sensor node is activated by the individual's movement and sends a second RF message to join the subnet and for a schedule of wakeup times. The first sensor node receives the second RF message and in response sends the synchronization information to the second sensor node.

Abstract: Methods and systems for assigning damage to a property to causes of loss are provided. A smart home controller and/or an insurance provider remote processor (or server) may generate a time sequence of events for damage associated with an insure-related event. The time-sequence of events may be analyzed to identify causes of loss associated with damage to the property. The smart home controller or insurance provider remote processor may further analyze the time-sequence of event to determine a portion of the overall damage associated with each cause of loss. Subsequently, according to certain aspects, the smart home controller or insurance provider remote processor may automatically generate a prepopulated insurance claim for damage associated with the insurance-related event, and/or transmit the automatically prepared insurance claim to an insured for their review, approval, and/or modification, such as via wireless communication to a mobile device associated with the insured.

Abstract: A lighting control device for influencing thermoregulation of a vertebrate is disclosed. In one example, the lighting control device configured to select, on the basis of a predetermined criterion, a particular group of colors of groups having been categorized into groups on the basis of dominant wavelength, where each group of colors is arranged to influence a vertebrate's thermoregulation in a particular manner, and configured to generate a control signal for controlling the dominant wavelength of light emitted from at least one light source in accordance with the selected group of colors. The lighting control device is configured to transmit the generated control signal to said at least one light source for said at least one light source to emit light of the selected group of colors, thereby influencing the thermoregulation of the vertebrate being exposed to the light on the basis of said predetermined criterion.
