alarm home security systems
Each of these smart devices optionally communicates
with the hub device 180 using one or more radio communication networks available at least in the smart home environment 100 e. g. , ZigBee, Z Wave, Insteon, Bluetooth, Wi Fi and other radio communication networks. In some implementations, the hub device 180 and devices coupled with/to the hub device can be controlled and/or interacted with via an application running on a smart phone, household controller, laptop, tablet computer, game console or similar electronic device. In some implementations, a user of such controller application can view status of the hub device or coupled smart devices, configure the hub device to interoperate with smart devices newly introduced to the home network, commission new smart devices, and adjust or view settings of connected smart devices, etc. In some implementations the hub device extends capabilities of low capability smart device to match capabilities of the highly capable smart devices of the same type, integrates functionality of multiple different device types—even across different communication protocols, and is configured to streamline adding of new devices and commissioning of the hub device. In some implementations, hub device 180 further includes a local storage device for storing
data related to, or output by, smart devices of smart home environment 100. In some implementations, the data includes one or more of: video data output by a camera device, metadata output by a smart device, settings information for a smart device, usage logs for a smart device, and the like. In some implementations, smart home environment 100 includes a local storage device 190 for storing data related to, or output by, smart devices of smart home environment 100. In some implementations, the data includes one or more of: video data output by a camera device e. g.

FIG. 10C is a block diagram of a doorbell camera system that has a voltage monitoring unit in a doorbell camera in accordance with some implementations. FIG. 10D is a block diagram of a doorbell camera system that has a voltage monitoring unit in a bypass unit in accordance with some implementations. The doorbell camera system 1000 includes a doorbell camera 106 having a doorbell button 1002, a camera
module 1004, an LED indicator, a speaker, a microphone, a processor and memory including programs executed by the processor. The camera module 1004 further includes a lens assembly 704 and an image sensor array that are configured to capture images at a premises, and a wireless transceiver that is configured to exchange data with a
remote server over one or more wireless communication networks. The doorbell button 1002 is configured to trigger a remote chime 1006 in response to a user press on a button top 702. In some implementations, the LED indicator is configured to illuminate through a peripheral edge 1040 of the doorbell button 1002 that surrounds the button top 702. The doorbell camera 106 is electrically coupled to the remote chime 1006 via a bypass unit 1012 powered by a transformer 1010 that provides an input AC voltage e. g. , by converting a mains power supply of 110V to the input AC voltage of 8V, 10V or 12V.
