1. A system, comprising:
- a plurality of intelligent appliances,the plurality of intelligent appliances including a first intelligent appliance and a second intelligent appliance; and
,a wireless computing device configured to;
detect first wireless data that identifies the first intelligent appliance and second wireless data that identifies the second intelligent appliance;
in response to detecting the first and second wireless data, establish(1) a first wireless communication channel through which the first intelligent appliance communicates with the wireless computing device and(2) a second wireless communication channel through which the second intelligent appliance communicates with the wireless computing device,wherein the first and second intelligent appliances are configured to wirelessly communicate with each other through a direct wireless communication channel between the first and second intelligent appliances without an intermediate access point or gateway andwherein the first wireless communication channel, the second wireless communication channel, and the direct wireless channel belong to a same wireless network; and
receiving, by the wireless computing device and via the first wireless communication channel, at least a portion of environment data captured by the first intelligent appliance,wherein the environment data includes video, images, sound, temperature data, chemical presence data, motion data, or any combinations thereof regarding a surveillance area;
wherein the system is further configured to;
receive data from a communication device associated with a person;
detect one or more trigger events based, at least in part, on the data received from the communication device associated with the person, reference information, and the at least a portion of the captured environment data; and
in response to detecting the one or more trigger events, causing the second intelligent appliance to perform an action for controlling an associated device within the surveillance area,wherein at least one setting of the second intelligent appliance is adjusted based on control data generated by the wireless computing device using one or more instances of logic locally stored on the wireless computing device and one or more user settings,wherein the control data is transmitted from the wireless computing device to the second intelligent appliance via the second wireless communication channel.

Abstract
A surveillance systems monitors a predetermined environment based on received data. The surveillance system includes a first intelligent appliance configured to capture video and/or still images and configured to be in wireless communication with a second intelligent appliance that operates based on data from the first intelligent appliance. The surveillance system can detect a person located within the predetermined environment and can track the person'"'"'s movement. The surveillance system is configured to allow remote viewing of data and/or controlling cameras.
