Abstract:

A social intelligence, tracking and monitoring system includes a data processor, a Wi-Fi module to transmit and receive information over the internet, a camera, and a proximity detector for sensing the presence of a visitor, the proximity detector in communication with the data processor to actuate the camera to take a photographic image of the visitor. Photographic images of persons of interest are downloaded from a social networking site. The facial features in the downloaded photographic images are compared to the facial features in the photographic image taken by the camera to determine if the visitor is recognized. Upon recognition of the visitor by the system, a prerecorded message is played to the recognized visitor. Another prerecorded message is played inviting the visitor to leave a message. An infrared illuminator illuminates the visitor when the data processor determines that the ambient lighting is insufficient. Other applications for the system include doorbell usage types, tracking usage types, shop usage types, and monitoring usage types.
