Abstract
A home automation system logs use of automation equipment such as lights, appliances, door and window openings, motion, etc., and suggests home automation scenes based on an analysis of the logs. An inventory of system equipment can be compared to scenes used by other systems with a similar equipment inventory to develop suggested scenes. A server may analyze insurance claim data and police reports to suggest scenes, in view of a system inventory, that could help minimize particular losses.
