Abstract
A mesh network-based environmental data capture system and method for providing communication between a base system having at least one wireless input capture device ICD(s) and other ICD(s), wherein the ICD(s) are capable of smart cross-communication with each other and remote access to their inputs via a server computer, including the steps of providing this base system; at least one user accessing the ICDs and inputs remotely via a user interface through a remote server computer and/or electronic device communicating with it, for providing a secure surveillance system with extended inputs range and wireless smart cross-communication for monitoring a target environment.

41. A method for establishing one or more telecommunication paths between a first communication appliance and a second communication appliance located on a premises, wherein the first communication appliance communicates with a plurality of observation devices, the method comprising:
-
creating a first communication lock between the first communication appliance and a target observation device of the plurality of observation devices, wherein the first communication lock configures the first communication appliance to transmit at least a target portion of wireless data for delivery exclusively to the target observation device, and wherein the first communication lock corresponds to a first part of a first communication path between the first communication appliance and the second communication appliance; creating a second communication lock between the target observation device and the second communication appliance, wherein the second communication lock corresponds to a second part of the first communication path between the first communication appliance and the second communication appliance, and wherein the second communication appliance communicates with at least one observation device other than the target observation device; capturing, by the target observation device, first observation data comprising at least one of temperature data, chemical presence data, video data, image data, audio data, or RFID data while the target observation device is configured to receive data using the first communication lock and transmit data using the second communication lock; and transmitting, by the target observation device, at least a portion of the captured first observation data. - View Dependent Claims (42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53)

54. A method for establishing a wireless telecommunication path between a first communication device and a second communication device, the method comprising:
-
creating a first wireless communication lock between the first communication device and an intermediate communication device, wherein the first communication lock configures the first communication device for wireless transmission of data to the intermediate communication device, wherein the first wireless communication lock is a first part of the wireless telecommunication path;
creating a second wireless communication lock between the intermediate communication device and the second communication device, wherein the second wireless communication lock is a second part of the wireless telecommunication path, and wherein the first communication device and/or the second communication device is configured to communicate with additional communication devices while data is transmitted via the wireless telecommunication path;capturing, by the intermediate communication device, observation data including at least one of temperature data, chemical presence data, video data, image data, audio data, or RFID data while the intermediate communication device is configured to receive data using the first communication lock and transmit data using the second communication lock; and transmitting, by the intermediate communication, at least a portion of the captured data. - View Dependent Claims (55, 56, 57, 58)
