A sensor is configured to receive an input associated with a human present in a physical space in which a device is deployed. A physical circuit path is configured to electrically couple an output signal generated by the sensor to a premises automation system processing component. A physical privacy switch is configured to have a first position and a second position, wherein the physical privacy switch connects the physical circuit path when in the first position and interrupts the physical circuit path when in the second position.

Physical sensor switch for premises automation

For each of a plurality of subsystems comprising a premises automation solution a corresponding current controlled state information is stored. Stored state information associated with the plurality of subsystems is used to generate and provide as output a recommendation to perform a recommended operation with respect to one or more of said subsystems.

Premises automation user recommendations

A device, comprises a microphone and a communication interface configured to send to a premises automation control core audio input received via the microphone. The premises automation control core is configured to determine, based at least in part on the audio input, a premises automation context associated with the device and send to the device via the communication interface a context data indicating the determined context. The devices also comprises a visual display device, a physical input device, and a processor coupled to the visual display device and the communication interface. The processor is configured to receive the context data and cause the visual display device to provide a visual display associated with the context data. At least one of the processor and the premises automation control core is configured to respond in a manner determined at least in part based on the context data to an alternate input made via the physical input device while the visual display device is providing the visual display associated with the context data.

Contextual premises automation button

An audio input associated with a human utterance received at the audio input device is received from a respective one of a plurality of audio input devices. Each of the plurality of audio input devices is located in a corresponding physical location within the premises. The audio input is mapped to an intent. An audible verbal response associated with the intent is provided as audio output via a selected one or more of a plurality of audio output devices. Each of the plurality of audio output devices is located in an associated physical location within the premises.

Distributed architecture for premises automation

One or more network communications to discover one or more controllable devices on a network with which a premises automation system is associated is sent automatically. A set of one or more controllable devices on the network is determined based at least in part on a response received from said one or more network communications. An assigned name that is unique within the premises automation system is assigned automatically to each of said set of one or more controllable devices.
