Security system with two-way communication and video
First Claim
1. A security system comprising:
- a camera;
a sensor generating a signal in response to a triggering event, the triggering event being at least one of an actuation of a doorbell button, an actuation of a bell connected to and operated by a doorbell button, door opening detection, sound detection, motion detection, proximity detection and infrared (IR) beam interruption; and
a management module adapted to;
send data to be received by at least one remote communication device upon generation by the sensor of the signal generated in response to the triggering event, andinitiate a connection between the at least one remote communication device and the camera, the connection permitting data exchange between the at least one remote communication device and the camera.

Abstract
A security system has a camera; a sensor generating a signal in response to a triggering event, and a management module. The triggering event is one of an actuation of a doorbell button, an actuation of a bell connected to and operated by a doorbell button, door opening detection, motion detection, proximity detection and infrared (IR) beam interruption. The management module is adapted to send data to be received by a remote communication device upon generation by the sensor of the signal generated in response to the triggering event. The management module is also adapted to initiate a connection between the remote communication device and the camera, the connection permitting data exchange between the remote communication device and the camera. The security system allows a person located in a vicinity of the camera installed at a building or a house to communicate with a user of a remote communication device.
