The disclosure includes a child/pet car safety system. The system includes a 360 degree camera with temperature and humidity sensors and a phone app in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. The attached camera dome recognizes persons or animals in the vehicle. When the vehicle is turned off, the system engages temperature controls to keep remaining persons or animals in the vehicle at a safe and comfortable temperature. The accompanying app notifies users of conditions in the vehicle.

An opening and closing device includes an upper arm and a lower arm spaced apart in an up-and-down direction and extend between a vehicle door and a vehicle body, a connecting member configured to connect a first end portion of the upper arm and a first end portion of the lower arm, a body-side upper hinge and a body-side lower hinge attached to the vehicle body so as to be spaced apart in the up-and-down direction and support the connecting member rotatably, a door-side upper hinge attached to an inner panel of the vehicle door to support a second end portion of the upper arm rotatably, and a door-side lower hinge attached to the inner panel of the vehicle door to support a second end portion of the lower arm rotatably.

This relates to apparatus, systems, methods, and related computer program products for providing home security/smart-home objectives. More particularly, this relates to intelligent, multi-sensing, network-connected devices that communicate with each other and/or with a central server or a cloud-computing system to provide any of a variety of useful home security/smart-home objectives, including managing ingress and egress through any smart door of a smart-home.

In one aspect, an in-vehicle computing device is provided for controlling operation of a movable barrier operator. The in-vehicle computing device includes a sensor configured to detect a vehicle characteristic and communication circuitry operable to cause automatic operation of the movable barrier operator by communicating with the movable barrier operator. The in-vehicle device further includes a processor operatively coupled to the communication circuitry, the sensor, and the memory. The processor configured to determine satisfaction of a user account condition and, upon the user account condition not being satisfied, to inhibit the communication circuitry from initiating automatic operation of the movable barrier operator.

Systems, methods, and apparatus for managing and controlling network-enabled movable barrier operators is provided. A method for managing network-enabled movable barrier operator includes receiving a user account identifier and a movable barrier operator identifier from a user device, providing an instruction to perform a specified action with a movable barrier operator associated with the movable barrier operator identifier to the user device, determining a registration condition is met upon detecting that the specified action has been performed, and, in the event that the registration condition is met, associating the movable barrier operator identifier with the user account identifier to allow a user account associated with the user account identifier to control the movable barrier operator over a network.

An automatic carbon monoxide power cut-off system for a carbon monoxide source, where the system includes a microprocessor co-located with the carbon monoxide source, and a carbon monoxide sensor in wireless communication with the microprocessor and configured to detect presence of carbon monoxide and wirelessly transmit a sensor signal to the microprocessor, and the microprocessor being configured to generate a trigger signal in response to the sensor signal indicative of carbon monoxide exceeding a predetermine level. A power cut-off device is coupled to the microprocessor and is configured to automatically cut off power to the carbon monoxide source in response to the trigger signal, so that the carbon monoxide source automatically stops generating carbon monoxide. The carbon monoxide source may include a furnace and a power generator.

A method and apparatus relating to generating, by at least one motion sensor of a data acquisition device that is mounted to a door having a door closer, motion data indicative of motion as the door is moved from an open position to a closed position, generating, by at least one load cell of the data acquisition device, load data as the door is being opened, analyzing the motion data and load data by a central processing device, determining at least one adjustment to the door closer based on at least one of a duration the door was in each of a plurality of door movement zones, as determined using the motion data, and a force applied to open the door, as determined using the load data, and displaying at least one installation instruction corresponding with the at least one adjustment on a graphical user interface of the central processing device.

A safe container comprises a first receptacle configured to receive a grooming product and a biometric lock configured to selectively open the first receptacle to a designated user. The grooming product may include a shaver and/or razor blade cartridges. The biometric lock may include a fingerprint reader.

A door control system is provided. The control system includes a controller configured to control a door via a motor. The motor is powered by a battery and bypasses the controller via relays and/or switches when power to the controller is disconnected.

A smart window/door opening-closing device that can easily be installed for use with an existing door or window or can be built-in by the door or window manufacturer, can be programmed to activate the opening or closing of the door or window either (a) remotely, (b) automatically by a pet, (c) automatically by a voice command and/or (d) automatic in response to external sensors, is easily disengaged when use is not desired, provides safety and security to prevent unwanted opening or closing of the door or window, and is integrated with a wireless communication network to enable smart and remote control of the window/door actuator.
