    • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a doorbell device in accordance with disclosed embodiments;
  • FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a system in accordance with disclosed embodiments; and
  • FIG. 3 is a flow diagram of a method in accordance with disclosed embodiments.
    •  DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • While this invention is susceptible of an embodiment in many different forms, specific embodiments thereof will be described herein in detail with the understanding that the present disclosure is to be considered as an exemplification of the principles of the invention. It is not intended to limit the invention to the specific illustrated embodiments.
  • Embodiments of the claimed invention can include systems and methods for broadcasting an audio or visual alert that includes a description of features of an ambient object extracted from an image captured by a camera of a doorbell device. In some embodiments, the doorbell device can include the camera and a processor, and in some embodiments, the processor can (1) receive the image from the camera, (2) process the image with an artificial intelligence model to identify and extract details of the features of the ambient object, and (3) initiate a broadcast of the audio or visual alert by an alert device associated with the camera.
  • In some embodiments, the audio or visual alert can include the description of the features of the ambient object. For example, in some embodiments, the processor can use the artificial intelligence model to extract the details of a person depicted in the image, such as a height of the person, an eye color of the person, a description of the person's clothing, a physical build of the person, any textual indicators on the person or the person's clothing, and other features as would be understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art. Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, the processor can use the artificial intelligence model to extract the details of an inanimate or animate object, other than people, depicted in the image. For example, when the object is a vehicle, the details extracted from the image can include a license plate of the vehicle, a make of the vehicle, a model of the vehicle, and other features as would be understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art.
  • In some embodiments, the processor can process the image to determine whether the ambient object is a known object or a generic object, and when the ambient object is the known object, the audio or visual alert can include a sound and/or a visual indicator associated with the known object and, accordingly, fail to include the description of the features of the ambient object. Additionally, in some embodiments, when the processor fails to identify the ambient object as the known object, the processor can classify the ambient object as the generic object.
  • In some embodiments, the alert device can include an audio device within a region outside of which the doorbell device is located, and in these embodiments, the alert device can communicate with a transceiver of the doorbell device via a wireless network or a hardwired connection. Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, the alert device can be part of, housed in, and/or integral with the doorbell device and communicate with the processor directly. Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, the alert device can include a mobile device of an authorized user of the region outside of which the doorbell device is located, and in these embodiments, the alert device can communicate with the transceiver of the doorbell device via the wireless network.
  • In some embodiments, the camera can capture the image when the camera is activated and the ambient object is located within a field of view of the camera. In these embodiments, a proximity detector can activate the camera when the ambient object is detected within a detection range of the proximity detector. For example, in some embodiments the proximity detector can be part of, included in, and/or integral with the doorbell device and communicate with the camera and/or the processor directly. Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, the proximity detector can communicate with the transceiver of the doorbell device via the wireless network or the hardwired connection.
  • In some embodiments, a cloud server that is remote from the doorbell device and the region outside of which the doorbell device is located can execute one or more of steps that would otherwise be executed by the processor as described above. For example, in some embodiments, the cloud server can receive the image from the camera and process the image with the artificial intelligence model to identify and extract the details of the features of the ambient object. Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, the cloud server can initiate the broadcast of the audio or visual alert. Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, the cloud server can process the image to determine whether the ambient object is the known object or the generic object, and in these embodiments, when the cloud server fails to identify the ambient object as the known object, the cloud server can classify the ambient object as the generic object.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a doorbell device 20 in accordance with disclosed embodiments, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a system 200 in accordance with disclosed embodiments. As seen in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the doorbell device 20 can include a processor 22, a camera 24, and in some embodiments, a proximity detector 26, an alert device 28, and/or a transceiver 30. As seen in, FIG. 2, in some embodiments, the system 200 can include the doorbell device 20 and a cloud server 32 such that the doorbell device 20 can be located outside of a region R, such that the transceiver 30 can communicate with the cloud server 32 via a network N, and in some embodiments, such that the transceiver 30 can communicate with an alert device 34, for example, when the alert device 34 is separate from the doorbell device 20 and/or includes a mobile device of an authorized user of the region R.
  • FIG. 3 is a flow diagram of a method 100 in accordance with disclosed embodiments. As seen in FIG. 3, when the camera 24 is activated, for example, by the proximity detector 26, the method 100 can include the camera 24 capturing an image of an ambient object within a field of view of the camera 24, as in 102. Then, the method 100 can include the processor 22 and/or the cloud server 32 processing the image with an artificial intelligence model to identify and extract details of features of the ambient object, as in 104, and initiating a broadcast of an audio or visual alert by the alert device 28 or 34, as in 106.
  • Although a few embodiments have been described in detail above, other modifications are possible. For example, the logic flows described above do not require the particular order described or sequential order to achieve desirable results. Other steps may be provided, steps may be eliminated from the described flows, and other components may be added to or removed from the described systems. Other embodiments may be within the scope of the invention.
  • From the foregoing, it will be observed that numerous variations and modifications may be effected without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. It is to be understood that no limitation with respect to the specific system or method described herein is intended or should be inferred. It is, of course, intended to cover all such modifications as fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
