Abstract: Home telematics devices are engineered to identify unique device signatures for all appliances, fixtures, and so on that generate voltage noise, pressure waves, and acoustic responses throughout a property. The device signatures comprise the inventory of devices in the insured's home and are used to create an electronic record of the devices that assists him in filing a claim with an insurer that is quick and easy after a theft or total loss. Using the device signatures provided by home telematics devices' sensing an itemization technology, fraud detection is also possible. Additionally, analytics software predicts possible failure by analyzing the device signatures.

Abstract: A computing device may broadcast a first message via a wireless interface while operating according to a first network topology. After broadcasting the first message, the computing device may receive the first message via a wired interface. Based on receiving the first message via the wired interface, the computing device may broadcast a second message indicating a second network topology via the wireless interface. Based on receiving the first message via the wired interface, the computing device may operate according to the second network topology.

Abstract: A system and method are provided herein for communicating with and controlling various devices using visible light communication (VLC). According to one embodiment, a method is provided for extending a communication range of a VLC system comprising a plurality of controlled devices and a remote-control device. Such a method may include, for example, transmitting a communication message from a remote-control device to a first controlled device located within range of the remote-control device, wherein the communication message is transmitted through free space using visible light, and extending the communication range of the VLC system to a second controlled device, which is located outside of the range of the remote-control device, by using the first controlled device to retransmit the communication message through free space using visible light to the second controlled device.
