Abstract

A security system includes a warning notification module adapted to recognize at least one of a wireless or audible signal. A door bell ringer or emergency transmission signal from a wireless transmitter can provide a recognition signal to a microprocessor in the security system via the warning notification module. The microprocessor retrieves dog barking sounds stored in memory and provides them to at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter after the microprocessor receives the recognition signal from the warning notification module. Dog barking sounds can be broadcasted using the wireless transmitter. Processing can be with a time delay after first receipt of the recognition signal. A random module can enable random retrieval of various dog barking sounds from memory for processing. A time out module can disable operation of the microprocessor at a set time after recognition signal receipt.

Claims

1. A security system, comprising:

a warning notification module adapted to recognize an emergency transmission signal sent from a remote wireless transmitter, and to thereafter provide a recognition signal to a microprocessor;

a memory containing dog barking sounds;

a microprocessor adapted to retrieve dog barking sounds from the memory and provide the dog barking sounds to at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter after the microprocessor receives the recognition signal from the warning notification module; and

a random module cooperating with the microprocessor to retrieve various dog barking sounds for a preselected dog type from the memory and provides the various dog barking sounds for the preselected dog type randomly to at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter with a delay time after the microprocessor receives the recognition signal from the warning notification module.

2. The security system of claim 1 further comprising a time out module, wherein the time out module disable operation of the microprocessor at a set time after the microprocessor first receives the recognition signal from the warning notification module.

3. The security system of claim 1 wherein radio frequency transmitter is adapted to broadcast the dog barking sounds provided by the microprocessor to at least one public radio station frequency.

4. The security system of claim 1 further comprising a microphone, wherein the microphone operates with the microprocessor and the memory to recognize door bell sounds, wherein said door bell sounds are first recognized to enable retrieval of dog barking sounds from memory and rendering of the dog barking sounds by the system via the least one of the radio frequency transmitter or the amplifier.

5. The security system of claim 1, wherein said remote wireless transmitter includes a portable transmitter carried by a user.

10. The security system of claim 1, wherein said remote wireless transmitter comprises a portable transmitter carried by a user;

11. The security system of claim 1, wherein said portable transmitter further includes buttons that allow the user to control home security system arming functionality and emergency calling functions through said personal security system.

19. The method of claim 1 wherein a delay module is provided to cooperate with the microprocessor to retrieve dog barking sounds from the memory and provide the dog barking sounds to the at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter a preset delay of one or more seconds after the microprocessor receives the signal.

6. A security system, comprising:

a warning notification module adapted to recognize an emergency transmission signal sent from a remote wireless transmitter, and to thereafter provide a recognition signal to a microprocessor;

a memory containing dog barking sounds;

a microprocessor adapted to retrieve dog barking sounds from the memory and provide the dog barking sounds to at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter after the microprocessor receives the recognition signal from the warning notification module;

a delay module cooperating with the microprocessor to retrieve dog barking sounds from the memory and provides the dog barking sounds to the at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter a preset delay of one or more seconds after the microprocessor receives the recognition signal from the warning notification module; and

a random module cooperating with the microprocessor to retrieve various dog barking sounds for a preselected dog type from the memory and provides the various dog barking sounds for the preselected dog type randomly to at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter with a delay time after the microprocessor receives the recognition signal from the warning notification module.

7. The security system of claim 6 further comprising a time out module, wherein the time out module disable operation of the microprocessor at a set time after the microprocessor first receives the recognition signal from the warning notification module.

8. The security system of claim 6 wherein radio frequency transmitter is adapted to broadcast the dog barking sounds provided by the microprocessor to at least one public radio station frequency.

9. The security system of claim 6 further comprising a microphone, wherein the microphone operates with the microprocessor and the memory to recognize door bell sounds, wherein said door bell sounds are first recognized to enable retrieval of dog barking sounds from memory and rendering of the dog barking sounds by the system via the least one of the radio frequency transmitter or the amplifier.

12. A method of security to a premises, comprising:

providing a security system including a memory containing dog barking sounds and a microprocessor programmed to recognize a signal sent from a wireless transmitter;

wirelessly providing alarm functionality and emergency call rendering functions from said security system;

the microprocessor recognizing said signal from said wireless transmitter;

the microprocessor retrieving dog barking sounds from a memory after a preset delay;

the microprocessor providing the dog barking sounds to at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter; and

a random module cooperating with the microprocessor to retrieve various dog barking sounds for a preselected dog type from the memory and provides the various dog barking sounds for the preselected dog type randomly to at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter after the microprocessor receives the said signal from the said wireless transmitter.

13. The method of claim 12, further comprising a step wherein the microprocessor retrieves dog barking sounds from the memory and provides the dog barking sounds to at least one of an amplifier or radio frequency transmitter at least one second after the microprocessor receives the recognition signal from a warning notification module.

14. The method of claim 12 further comprising a step operation of the door bell notification and personal security system is suspended at a set time after the microprocessor recognizing at least one of a door bell notification initiated from a door bell ringer or an emergency transmission signal sent from a wireless transmitter.

15. The method of claim 12 further comprising a step wherein a radio frequency transmitter is provided that is adapted to broadcast the dog barking sounds provided by the microprocessor to at least one public radio station frequency.

16. The method of claim 12 further comprising a step wherein a microphone is provided that operates with the microprocessor and the memory to enable the microprocessor to recognize door bell sounds stored in the memory via a door bell notification module that is initiated from a door bell ringer.

17. The method of claim 12 further comprising a step wherein a portable transmitter is provided that can be carried by a user to remotely operate the microprocessor and cause the microprocessor to activate random dog barking based on the dog barking sounds retrieved from their storage in memory.

18. The method of claim 17, wherein said portable transmitter also enables alarm activation and deactivation and emergency calling.
