    Abstract: Systems and methods for activating select devices are described herein. More particularly, this specification relates to using structure specific service IDs (SSSIDs) when two devices that are part of a common ecosystem are deciding whether to establish a connection according to a Bluetooth protocol. The SSSID can be a unique identifier that can be included in packets that are transmitted in accordance with the standards defining the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol. The SSSIDs can be generated and provided to select devices such that only the select devices that are in possession of the SSSID are able to communicate with each other. This advantageously eliminates spurious activation of unintended recipient devices by enabling them to ignore the packet if the SSSID is not recognized, thereby enabling the unintended recipient device to remain in a low power sleepy state.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing connection latency are described herein. More particularly, this specification relates to shortening connection latency between devices operating according to a Bluetooth protocol. Connection latency can be reduced by using the receipt of a wireless packet as a trigger for selectively accelerating a transmission rate of advertising packets. By selectively accelerating the transmission rate advertising packets, a connection interval between two devices can be shortened.

    Abstract: The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for authenticating users. In one aspect, a method includes (1) determining an operating state of a heat source; (2) determining an occupancy of a dwelling that includes the heat source; (3) determining whether a heat-source alert condition is met; (4) in accordance with a determination that the heat-source alert condition is met, generating a heat-source alert; (5) receiving from a user acknowledgement of the heat-source alert, the acknowledgement including a first classification for the heat-source alert; and (6) determining that the acknowledgement includes the first classification for the heat-source alert; and (7) in accordance with the determination that the acknowledgement includes the first classification, modifying the heat-source alert condition for future heat-source alerts.
