It is also to be appreciated that while the terms
user, customer, installer, homeowner, occupant, guest, tenant, landlord, repair person, and the like may be used to refer to the person or persons acting in the context of some particularly situations described herein, these references do not limit the scope of the present teachings with respect to the person or persons who are
performing such actions. Thus, for example, the terms user, customer, purchaser, installer, subscriber, and homeowner may often refer to the same person in the case of a single family residential dwelling, because the head of the household is often the person who makes the purchasing decision, buys the unit, and installs and configures the unit, and is also one of the users of the unit. However, in other scenarios, such as a landlord tenant environment, the customer may be the landlord with respect to purchasing the unit, the installer may be a local apartment supervisor, a first user may be the tenant, and a second user may again be the landlord with respect to remote control functionality. Importantly, while the identity of the person performing the action may be germane to a particular advantage provided by one or more of the implementations, such identity should not be construed in the descriptions that follow as necessarily limiting the scope of the present teachings to those particular individuals having those particular identities. In some implementations, the integrated devices of the smart home environment 100 include intelligent, multi sensing, network connected devices that integrate seamlessly with each other in a smart home network e. g. , from a client device 220, from a server system 164, from user inputs detected on the user interface 410, etc. for operating the smart device 204;a data processing module 4322 for processing data captured or received by one or more inputs e. g. , input devices 414, image/video capture devices 418, location detection device 416, sensors e. g.

1. g. , including a camera 118 or 106 and an optional controller device and/or audio information received
from one or more smart devices in real time to identify and categorize events occurring in the smart home environment, and sends real time event alerts and a refreshed event timeline to a client device 220 associated with a reviewer account for the smart home environment. The data processing pipeline also processes stored information such as stored video feeds from a video source 501 to reevaluate and/or re categorize events as necessary, such as when new information is obtained regarding the event and/or when new information is obtained regarding event categories e. g. , a new activity zone is obtained from the user. After video and/or audio data is captured at a smart device, the data is processed to determine if any potential event candidates are present. In
some implementations, the data is initially processed at the smart device e. g. , video source 501 or camera 118 or 106. Thus, in some implementations, the smart device sends event candidate information, such as event start information, to the server system 164.
