Automatic illuminating user interface device
First Claim
1. A user interface (UI) device to provide an interface for a user to interact with a premises management system and control one or more premises management devices, the UI device comprising:
- one or more sensors, the one or more sensors including a microphone,a first interface component configured to illuminate a component of a display device when an individual is detected by the one or more sensors, anda processor to analyze data obtained by the one or more sensors when the individual is detected in order to determine a system response to the detected individual and initiate a function of at least one other device based on the analysis.

Abstract
A user interface (UI) device for a premises management system may include at least one proximity sensor, a first interface component configured to illuminate in a first illumination style based on a first rule set when an individual is detected within a first range by the at least one proximity sensor, and a second interface component to receive input from the individual and configured to illuminate in a second illumination style based on a second rule set different from the first rule set when the individual is detected within a second range closer to the UI device than the first range.

19. A premises management system, comprising:
-
at least one premises management device having one or more sensors that generate data that indicates an aspect of an environment, wherein the one or more sensors operate at least to detect ambient temperature and detect a presence of an individual; and a user interface (UI) device to provide an interface for a user to interact with the system and receive data from one or more of the premises management devices, the UI device including; one or more sensors, an interface component configured to illuminate a component of a display when an individual is detected by the one or more sensors, and a processor to analyze data obtained by the at least one premises management device and control a function of at least one other device based on the analysis. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
