Abstract
A method for teleconferencing between a monitoring device and a user device includes establishing an audio channel connection between the user device and the monitoring device of a remote user; displaying an entry code on a display of the monitoring device; obtaining from a user of the monitoring device a verbal confirmation of the entry code; and, in response to receiving the entry code from the remote user, enabling a camera of the monitoring device. In response to the verbal confirmation, the entry code is sent to the remote user. Enabling the camera of the monitoring device establishes an audio-visual connection between the user device and the monitoring device.
