A monitoring device comprises a single housing, a plurality of sensors supported by the housing to detect respective characteristics of a location, a processing device within the housing, and memory within the housing to store data collected by the plurality of sensors. The sensors may include a camera, a temperature sensor, an air quality sensor, an infrared sensor, an ambient light sensor, a humidity sensor, an accelerometer, a carbon monoxide sensor, and/or a carbon dioxide sensor, for example. Processing may be provided on the device to evaluate the sensor responses, such as by comparison to respective thresholds. In additions, sensor data may be sent to a network for further processing. The device does not require physical or wired installation, and is easy to set up. Multiple, separate sensors are not required in order to monitor a space and a separate processing device is also not required.

Monitoring and security devices comprising multiple sensors

A method of controlling operation of a security device in a location by a mobile user device, comprises monitoring a region around a location of interest, via a mobile user device; providing at least one security device within the region, wherein the security device comprises at least one sensor to monitor a location. The user device recognizes that the user device has entered the region, and searches for a security device within the region. The security device is detected and at least certain security features and/or sensors are disarmed. Disarming may mean that at least certain notifications are not sent about the status of the location. When the user device recognizes that the device is leaving the region, security features and/or sensors may be armed.
