Abstract

Systems and methods are described for enabling wireless communications and various types of engagement between a smart doorbell and a visitor's mobile device based on meeting certain criteria. Systems and methods are also described for establishing peer-to-peer communications between smart doorbells that are joined into a neighborhood watch program for providing alerts and reporting suspicious activity. A geofence around the smart doorbell is set up and a determination is made whether a visitor mobile device is within the generated geofence. If within the geofence, the UI of the visitor mobile device displays the smart doorbell and allows the visitor mobile device to virtually ring the doorbell or communicate with the doorbell if the visitor mobile device satisfies communication criteria of the doorbell. An encrypted peer-to-peer communication is set up, and communication between the doorbell and the visitor mobile device is established.
