Digitized voice alerts
DCFirst Claim
1. A method for automatically providing instant voice alerts to remote electronic devices, said method comprising:
- registering remote electronic devices to receive notifications via wireless data communications networks from a monitoring system including data files comprising digitized voice alerts;
generating and converting a text message indicative of an activity into a data file to be rendered on a remote electronic device as a digitized voice alert, wherein said activity comprises an activity detected at a premises utilizing at least one sensor via a monitoring system also located at the premises and connected to a packetized data network; and
transmitting said data file through the packetized data network for receipt by at least one remote electronic device that is registered to communicate remotely with the monitoring system and to receive messages over the packetized data network for rendering of the digitized voice alert from the data file and that communicates with said data network via wireless data communications, wherein the data file is processed at the at least one remote electronic device for an automatic audio announcement of said digitized voice alert through said at least one remote electronic device.

Abstract
Methods, systems and processor-readable media for providing instant/real-time voice alerts automatically to remote electronic devices. An activity can be detected utilizing one or more sensors. A text message indicative of the activity can be generated and converted into a digitized voice alert. The activity can also be a live utterance (e.g., a live announcement), which can then be instantly converted into a digitized voice alert for automatic delivery in a selected series of languages following the base language (e.g., English). The combined digitized voice alert can then be instantly transmitted through a network for broadcast of consecutive alerts (e.g., English followed by Spanish followed by Vietnamese, etc.) to one or more remote electronic devices that communicate with the network for an automatic audio announcement of the digitized voice alert through the one or more remote electronic devices.
