In some examples, a system for comfort or security in a building and its premises includes a plurality of “first” devices configured to wirelessly communicate with a hub device that is a master for controlling the system for comfort or security in the building and premises, wherein the plurality of first devices and the hub device are configured to wirelessly communicate using either one of an IEEE 802.15.4 standard or a Bluetooth Low Energy (BTLE) 5.0 standard; a plurality of “second” devices that are battery powered and configured to wirelessly communicate with respective ones of the plurality of first devices, wherein the plurality of second devices and respective ones of the plurality of first devices are configured to communicate using the BTLE 5.0 standard, wherein the hub device and the plurality of second devices are configured to communicate with each other via respective ones of the plurality of first devices.

Disclosed is a system (102) for determining a location of an explosive device. The system (102) detects an explosive device using one or more devices (204) based on one or more nano-explosive detection sensors (206) associated with the one or more devices (204). The system (102) further identifies a type, a quantity and a signal strength associated with the explosive device. The system (102) computes a distance between the explosive device and the one or more devices (204). The system (102) determines explosive device co-ordinates based on the computed distance and device co-ordinates associated with each device (204). The system (102) receives a data packet comprising data associated with the explosive device from the one or more devices (204). The system (102) determines a location of the explosive device based on an analysis of the data packet received from the one or more devices (204).

Embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product that enable secure access to cameras in smart buildings. Some embodiments control outbound video from an environment such as a local network through an intelligent on-event video pushing mechanism. The local intelligent on-event video pushing mechanism hides the IP address of a source video camera, transcodes the video to a reduced size for wide area distribution, and pushes video to a recipient upon an event triggered received within the local environment (e.g., the local network.) Embodiments enable a remote video client on the far-side of the local network firewall to view the video streams of cameras on the near-side of the local network firewall when an event or trigger occurs.

Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program receives a set of sensor data from a set of sensors. Each sensor in the set of sensors is configured to sense a physical quantity. Based on the set of sensor data, the program further determines that a particular event has occurred. Based on the determination that the particular event has occurred, the program also sends a set of notifications to a set of subscribers.

A system for calling attention according to the present disclosure includes: at least one sensor configured to detect environmental information; a storage device in which condition data representing a condition under which a specific incident occurs is stored; determination means for determining a possibility of an occurrence of the specific incident based on a result of the detection by the sensor and the condition data stored in the storage device; and calling attention means for calling attention to a fact that there is the possibility of the occurrence of the specific incident, in which when the determination means determines that there is the possibility of the occurrence of the specific incident, the calling attention means calls attention to the fact that there is the possibility of the occurrence of the specific incident.

Some embodiments are directed to a system that includes multiple fire sensors and equipment, and mobile devices of the users of the system. These fire sensors and equipment are configured in a network so as to allow communication with a processor. A processor in the system interrogates the status of the fire sensors and fire safety elements on a continuous basis. Upon a change in system status, the processor interprets the change and classifies according to operation state or probability of a fire or other imminent threat. The data, processing and storage provide the means by which occupants and potential occupants can better navigate a building during the occurrence of a fire. The system enables communication between users of the system through their mobile devices used and communication between devices that may be present in the

An embedded sensor can include an audio detector, a digital signal processor, a library, and a rules engine. The digital signal processor can be configured to receive signals from the audio detector and to identify the environment in which the embedded sensor is located. The library can store statistical models associated with specific environments, and the digital signal processor can be configured identify specific events based on detected sounds within the particular environment by utilizing the statistical model associated with the particular environment. The DSP can associate a probability of accuracy for the identified audible event. A rules engine can be configured to receive the probability and transmit a report of the detected audible event.
