Abstract: An access system and system for enabling a package to be delivered to a house are disclosed. The access unit includes a keypad, a light, and an activatable open button. The access unit opens a door to the structure when the button is pressed while active. The access unit also includes an authentication module configured to communicate via Bluetooth with a package delivery unit when the package delivery unit reaches a predetermined delivery distance near the structure and to authenticate the package delivery unit. The access unit also includes an execution module configured to store one or more rules pertaining to delivery of a package by the package delivery unit and to execute the one or more rules in response to the access unit successfully communicating with the package delivery unit, wherein one of the rules is to activate the activatable open button if the authentication is successful.

Abstract: A multifunction lock unit is disclosed. The unit is a single, contained unit that includes a base box near an overhead door and a deadbolt in the base box that protrudes into a hole in the overhead door to lock the overhead door. The deadbolt is extendable into the hole and retractable out of the hole. The unit also includes an actuator in the base box coupled to the deadbolt and configured to extend and retract the deadbolt. There is a wireless communication module that can receive a signal from a control unit to extend or retract the deadbolt via the actuator, and send a signal to the motor unit to raise or lower the overhead door. The unit also has a light on the base box for displaying at least two colors of light to show a status of the unit.

Abstract: A system for operating an overhead door using a battery and a low voltage power supply are disclosed. A battery is connected to a standard power outlet and charges from a power adaptor that converts the power down to a reduced voltage and provides the reduced power to the battery. The battery provides the principal power required to operate the overhead door opener. With the preferred embodiment, there is no need for an additional, higher-rated outlet near the overhead door opener, or a long high-voltage cable in the garage.

Abstract: An indicator for use with a winch is disclosed. It includes; a sensor for determining the load on a winch, a controller in communication with the sensor, and a load indicator comprising multiple lights in an array. Each of the lights in the array can be changed by the controller from one appearance to another. The controller is configured to change the appearance of each of the lights in the array, with the number of lights with a changed appearance being proportional to the load sensed by the sensor. Preferably, the indicator is incorporated into a fairlead for use with a winch.

Abstract: Methods for monitoring items in a garage are disclosed. The methods include providing a definition of an area in the garage to a garage monitoring unit mounted in the garage. The garage monitoring unit comprises a camera positioned to observe the area in the garage. The method also includes identifying an item pertaining to the area such that the camera of the garage monitoring unit is capable of identifying presence, absence, and misalignment of the item relative to the area, and inputting a rule for issuing an alert if the presence, absence, or misalignment of the item relative to the area breaks the rule. The method also includes receiving an alert from the garage monitoring unit when the rule is broken.

Abstract: Methods for identifying objects arriving at a house are disclosed. The method includes identifying background objects visible in a field of view of a camera positioned at the house, labeling the background objects as permanent objects, monitoring the zone for new objects entering the zone, and classifying the new objects as vehicle, human, or animal. If the new object is not classifiable, the method includes issuing an alarm to a remote device. If the new object is classifiable, incrementing a count for the classification vehicle, human, or animal. If the count exceeds a limit, the method includes issuing an alarm. The method also includes receiving information for a predefined list of allowed entities containing visual characteristics for the allowed entities and recognizing the new object as an allowed entity.
