Abstract

The present systems and methods are directed to a security or automation system that is configured for monitoring health and exercise conditions of an individual. A security or automation system may include at least one sensor for sensing a medical condition and at least one module for receiving sensed data from the at least one sensor. The security or automation system may further include a communication device for conveying information based on the sensed data to a remote site.

Claims

1. A premise security or premise automation system, comprising:

a control unit located within a premise monitored by the system and including a user interface and configured to;

receive health related data from at least one device remote from a panel; and

transmit information related to the health related data to a remote site.

2. The premise security or premise automation system of claim 1, further comprising the remote site.

3. The premise security or premise automation system of claim 1, wherein the at least one device comprising one of a body composition measurement device, a blood pressure monitor, a weight scale, a treadmill, a pedometer, a stationary bicycle, and a medication dispenser.

4. The premise security or premise automation system of claim 1, further configured to generate a report based on data received from the at least one device.

5. The premise security or premise automation system of claim 1, further configured to issue an alarm event upon receipt of heath related data.

6. The premise security or premise automation system of claim 1, wherein the remote site includes a medical facility.

7. The premise security or premise automation system of claim 1, wherein the control unit is further configured to receive the health related data via the user interface.

8. The premise security or premise automation system of claim 1, wherein the health related data comprises at least one of from a group consisting of a body composition measurement, a blood pressure measurement, a weight measurement, and an exercise summary.

9. The premise security or premise automation system of claim 1, wherein the control unit is configured to wirelessly receive the health related data from the at least one device.

10. A premise security system incorporated into a building, comprising:

a control unit configured to;

receive health related data from at least one device remote from a security control unit; and

issue an alarm event in response to receiving the health related data.

11. The premise security system of claim 10, wherein the health related data comprises a notification of a failure to remove medication from a medication dispenser.

12. The premise security system of claim 10, wherein the alarm event comprises a notification conveyed via an alarm module.

13. The premise security system of claim 10, wherein the alarm event is conveyed to a remote site.

14. The premise security system of claim 13, wherein the remote site comprises a medical facility.

15. The premise security system of claim 10, wherein the at least one device comprises a weight scale.

16. A method, comprising:

receiving health related data at a premise security system control unit incorporated into a building; and

processing the health related data at the premise security system control unit or at a remote site.

17. The method of claim 16, further comprising generating the health related data via at least one device.

18. The method of claim 16, wherein receiving health related data includes receiving the health related data from at least one of a body composition measurement device, a blood pressure monitor, a weight scale, a treadmill, a pedometer, a stationary bicycle, and a medication dispenser.

19. The method of claim 16, further comprising transmitting information based on the health related data to the remote site.

20. The method of claim 16, further comprising receiving health related instructional information at the premise security system control unit.
