A network-connected security device is communicatively coupled to an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device having a camera and a speaker. A method receives video data captured by the camera, and performs an object recognition algorithm upon the received video data to identify an object therein. The method performs a table lookup using the identified object, into a data structure that associates objects with at least one description of a predefined voice message. The method selects a description of a predefined voice message associated with the identified object, and transmits the selected description's predefined voice message to the A/V recording and communication device for output through the speaker.

In various examples, a seating application may be leveraged to allow users to select&#x2014;within a graphical user interface (GUI)&#x2014;a seat or seats at a venue that maintain compliance with social distancing standards. For example, as each user selects seats, the seats available to the next users may be updated&#x2014;e.g., dynamically&#x2014;such that a minimum distance is maintained between and among each individual user or group of users (e.g., a family). As a result, during periods where social distancing measures may be in place, users and venue staff may have peace of mind that social distancing standards are being met to ensure safety, while also maximizing event space usage.
