Problems solved by technology

However, these sensors have the same problem as ordinary motion sensors: they can be inadvertently activated by an authorized user
However, the problem with these pressure sensors is that they work in on / off mode based on detected pressure changes relative to the base state and do not take into account other changes that may occur in the system
However, if the motion sensor does "know" when a pet is present in the monitored area, or does "know" that the legitimate owner of the venue is moving in the area, then the detected motion can be safely ignored at that time

Embodiment Construction

[0015] figure 1 is a block diagram illustrating one embodiment of a facility 100 with a pressure monitoring system 110 . In this embodiment, site 100 is a residence. However, other locations such as warehouses, prisons, offices, etc. may be used. In addition to monitoring system 110 , facility 100 illustratively includes a floor 120 , walls 130 and a plurality of pressure panels 140 .

[0016] In one embodiment, monitoring system 110 is a system that can monitor the movement of people, animals and / or objects through the venue. In an exemplary embodiment, the monitoring system 110 includes a processor 112 , a data storage device 117 and a monitoring program 118 .

[0017] Pressure panel 140 is a pressure sensitive panel disposed at one or more locations throughout facility 100 . If desired, the pressure panel can be designed to appear as floor tiles or other inherent objects found in the venue. Floor tiles are arranged in a pattern common to residences or other establishme...

Abstract

The present invention is directed to systems and methods which monitor weights applied within a protected premises and, based on detected weight pressure patterns, serve to control operational aspects of the premises. In one embodiment, the pressure monitoring system is used in conjunction with a security system to resolve ambiguities in detected breach conditions. In one embodiment the pressure monitoring system learns and remembers how the premises is used. When a possible trouble condition is detected the system compares a detected pressure against known normal, known abnormal, and unexpected pressures to determine the action to be taken at that time.
