Abstract

A remote home security monitoring system and a method thereof are disclosed. In the system, an air sensor, a temperature sensor, a sound sensor and a charge-coupled device are integrated in a cleaning robot and configured to continuously sense air quality, ambient temperature and ambient sound when the cleaning robot is turned on, so as to generate ambient data which is further analyzed to determine an ambient state. When the ambient state is determined to be dangerous, the cleaning robot stops cleaning and notifies a remote user instantly, and provides the user to enable and control the charge-coupled device and a sound collection element to continuously record environment audio/video, and store the environment audio/video in a remote storage device. Therefore, the present disclosure can help to improve the comprehensiveness of home security monitoring.

Claims

1. A remote home security monitoring system, applied in a cleaning robot, the remote home security monitoring system comprising:

a sensing module configured to continuously sense a set of ambient data by using an air sensor, a temperature sensor and a sound sensor integrated in the cleaning robot, when the cleaning robot is turned on;

an analysis module configured to analyze the set of ambient data based on a set of default security data, to generate an ambient state, and determine the ambient state to be dangerous when a difference between the set of the ambient data and the set of the default security data exceeds a tolerable range;

a notifying module configured to stop the cleaning robot cleaning, transmit a notice message to a user end and initialize network to provide the user end to link with the cleaning robot when the ambient state is determined to be dangerous; and

a remote control module configured to provide the user end to remotely control a charge-coupled device and a sound collection element integrated in the cleaning robot after the cleaning robot is linked with the user end, so as to generate and receive environment audio/video.

2. The remote home security monitoring system according to claim 1, wherein the air sensor is configured to sense concentrations of carbon monoxide, fine particulate matter and gas.

3. The remote home security monitoring system according to claim 1, wherein the set of the default security data comprises safe ranges of carbon monoxide, fine particulate matter, gas, ambient temperature and ambient sound.

4. The remote home security monitoring system according to claim 1, wherein the notice message is transmitted to the user end through at least one of email, instant communication and SMS.

5. The remote home security monitoring system according to claim 1, wherein the remote control module further simultaneously transmits the environment audio/video to a remote storage device for storing.

6. A remote home security monitoring method, applied in a cleaning robot, the remote home security monitoring method comprising:

using an air sensor, a temperature sensor and a sound sensor integrated in the cleaning robot to continuously sense a set of ambient data when the cleaning robot is turned on;

analyzing the set of the ambient data based on a set of default security data to generate an ambient state, and determining the ambient state to be dangerous when a difference between the set of the ambient data and the set of the default security data exceeds a tolerable range;

stopping the cleaning robot cleaning when the ambient state is determined to be dangerous, and transmitting a notice message to a user end, and initializing network to provide the user end to link with the cleaning robot; and

providing the user end to remotely control a charge-coupled device and a sound collection element integrated in the cleaning robot to generate and receive environment audio/video after the user end is linked with the cleaning robot.

7. The remote home security monitoring method according to claim 6, wherein the air sensor is configured to sense concentrations of carbon monoxide, fine particulate matter and gas.

8. The remote home security monitoring method according to claim 6, wherein the set of the default security data comprises safe ranges of carbon monoxide, fine particulate matter, gas, ambient temperature and ambient sound.

9. The remote home security monitoring method according to claim 6, wherein the notice message is transmitted to the user end through at least one of email, instant communication and SMS.

10. The remote home security monitoring method according to claim 6, further comprising:

simultaneously transmitting the environment audio/video to a remote storage device for storing.
