Abstract

An electronic device including: a processor, a SIM card, one or more sensors, and a memory. The processor may: analyze words or phrases spoken by one or more trusted user(s) using voice recognition; determine if the one or more trusted user(s) has spoken a wake word, activate the one or more sensors to collect data when it has been determined the wake word has been spoken; determine location and temporal data for the electronic device from the SIM card; continue to analyze words or phrases spoken by one or more trusted user(s) using voice recognition; determine if one or more trigger words has been spoken; and activate the one or more response measure(s) if it is determined that a trigger word has been spoken. Also described is a security system and a method for carrying out a predetermined response as a result of spoken wake and trigger words.

         4 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein the temporal data is selected from the time of the day or the day of the week. 
     
     
         5 . The electronic device of  claim 2 , wherein the one or more predetermined response measures comprises contacting a third party, wherein the third party may be selected from, the police, the fire department, a friend or relative, a registered neighbor, and combinations thereof. 
     
     
         6 . The electronic device of  claim 5 , wherein the one or more predetermined response measures further comprises streaming and/or transmitting some or all of the collected auditory, visual, and/or bio-metric data, location, temporal data, and the personal information of the one or more users. 
     
     
         7 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is configured to connect to a network via Bluetooth, a wireless network, a wired network, voice over internet protocol (VoIP), and the Internet. 
     
     
         8 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is configured to be a stationary device. 
     
     
         9 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more sensors comprise sensors selected from a microphone, a camera, a light sensor, a GPS sensor, a gyroscope, an accelerometer, and a motion detector. 
     
     
         10 . The electronic device of  claim 9 , wherein the one or more sensors comprise at least 3 microphones. 
     
     
         11 . A security system comprising:
 a master device including,
 one or more processors, 
 a cellular modem or one or more non-cellular radios, or combinations thereof; 
 a SIM card, 
 a GPS chip, 
 one or more sensors, and 
   one or more of electronic devices, each said electronic device including:
 one or more sensors; 
 a memory for storing logic for execution by the processor to: 
 analyze words or phrases spoken by one or more trusted user(s) using voice recognition; 
 determine from the analyzed words or phrases if the one or more trusted user(s) has spoken a wake word, 
 activate the one or more sensors to collect auditory, visual, and/or bio-metric data received by the one or more sensors of the electronic device when it has been determined that one said trusted user has spoken the wake word; 
 continue to analyze words or phrases spoken by one or more trusted user(s) using voice recognition; 
 determine if one said trusted user has spoken one or more trigger words from the analyzed words or phrases; and
