First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining that a doorbell press has been detected at a property;
in response to determining the doorbell press has been detected at the property;
obtaining video data collected by a doorbell device of the property,obtaining sensor data collected by one or more sensors of a monitoring system located within the property,determining, based on the sensor data, that the property was unoccupied when the doorbell press was detected, anddetermining, based on the sensor data and the video data, a likelihood that an individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder;
determining, based on the sensor data and the video data, that the likelihood that the individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder satisfies a predetermined threshold associated with a security risk at the property;
in response to (i) determining that the property was unoccupied when the doorbell press was detected and (ii) determining that the likelihood that the individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder satisfies the predetermined threshold associated with a security risk at the property, determining a present security risk for the property based at least on the obtained sensor data and the obtained video data; and
in response to determining the present security risk for the property, establishing a communication session between the doorbell device and a server system associated with the monitoring system.

Abstract
Techniques are described for enabling a service administrator to respond to a detected doorbell press at a property when an authorized user is unavailable to respond. In some implementations, a determination that a doorbell press has been detected at a property is made. Video data collected by a doorbell device of the property is obtained in response to determining that the doorbell press has been detected at the property. Sensor data collected by one or more sensors of a monitoring system located within the property is obtained in response to determining that the doorbell press has been detected at the property. A present security risk for the property is determined based at least on the obtained sensor data and the obtained video data. A communication session between the doorbell device and a server system associated with the monitoring system of the property is established in response to determining the present security risk for the property.

10. A system comprising:
-
one or more computers; and one or more storage devices storing instructions that are operable, when executed by one or more computers, to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising; determining that a doorbell press has been detected at a property; in response to determining the doorbell press has been detected at the property; obtaining video data collected by a doorbell device of the property, obtaining sensor data collected by one or more sensors of a monitoring system located within the property, determining, based on the sensor data, that the property was unoccupied when the doorbell press was detected, and determining, based on the sensor data and the video data, a likelihood that an individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder; determining, based on the sensor data and the video data, that the likelihood that the individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder satisfies a predetermined threshold associated with a security risk at the property; in response to (i) determining that the property was unoccupied when the doorbell press was detected and (ii) determining that the likelihood that the individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder satisfies the predetermined threshold associated with a security risk at the property, determining a present security risk for the property based at least on the obtained sensor data and the obtained video data; and in response to determining the present security risk for the property, establishing a communication session between the doorbell device and a server system associated with the monitoring system. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)

14. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing software comprising instructions executable by one or more which, upon such execution, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
-
determining that a doorbell press has been detected at a property; in response to determining the doorbell press has been detected at the property; obtaining video data collected by a doorbell device of the property, obtaining sensor data collected by one or more sensors of a monitoring system located within the property, determining, based on the sensor data, that the property was unoccupied when the doorbell press was detected, and determining, based on the sensor data and the video data, a likelihood that an individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder; determining, based on the sensor data and the video data, that the likelihood that the individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder satisfies a predetermined threshold associated with a security risk at the property; in response to (i) determining that the property was unoccupied when the doorbell press was detected and (ii) determining that the likelihood that the individual that pressed the doorbell is an intruder satisfies the predetermined threshold associated with a security risk at the property, determining a present security risk for the property based at least on the obtained sensor data and the obtained video data; and in response to determining the present security risk for the property, establishing a communication session between the doorbell device and a server system associated with the monitoring system. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
