Remote communication systems and methods for communicating with a building gateway control to control building systems and elements

摘要

A wearable monitoring device, worn by a user, has one or more sensors which acquire at least one of a user's activities, behaviors and habit information, an antenna and a unique user ID. The monitoring device includes a wireless user interface with a one or more input selection elements, which are accessible by the user to control at least a portion of one or more controllable devices housed in a building. One or more controllable systems or devices are at the building. At least a first portion of the one or more controllable systems or devices have an interface with a receiver in communication with the monitoring device that enables the monitoring device to communicate with the receiver.

主权项

1. A system to interact with one or more controllable systems and one or more controllable devices at a building, comprising:
a wearable monitoring device that includes a microphone, an RF transmitter and sensors to determine air quality, sound level, sound quality, light quality and ambient temperature near an individual, the RF transmitter serving as a communication system; the wearable monitoring device including a wireless user interface with a one or more input selection elements, the one or more input selection elements being accessible by the individual to control at least a portion of the one or more controllable devices housed in the building; an accelerometer configured to detect an individual's movement information, the accelerometer and the wearable monitoring device configured to assist to determine sleep information and sleep behavior information of the individual, the microphone configured to record individual movement sounds detected by the accelerometer, the accelerometer configured to cause the microphone to stop recording the individual movement sounds when the movement sounds are not directed to a sleep related parameter; and the one or more controllable systems or the one or more controllable devices at the building, at least a first portion of the one or more controllable systems or the one or more controllable devices having an interface with a receiver in communication with the wearable monitoring device that enables the wearable monitoring device to communicate with the receiver, the first portion of the one or more controllable systems or the one or more controllable devices are directly controllable by the wearable monitoring device and operable to make a change to a setting of that one or more controllable systems or one or more controllable devices at the building.
