Abstract:
A building automation system may be controlled in response to a natural language voice message. The natural language voice message may be recorded and then sent to a voice command manager via a network. The natural language voice message is then translated into a command recognizable by a building automation controller of the building automation system. Voice recognition software may be used to create a natural language text based message from the recorded natural voice message, and the natural language text based message may then be translated into the command recognizable by the building automation controller. In response to the command, the building automation controller may perform the desired action.

Claim (Index 1):
A system of controlling a network connected building automation system servicing a building, comprising:\n a network; a server located outside of the building and connected to the network; a voice command manager implemented on the server; a thermostat located inside of the building, the thermostat comprising a temperature sensor and a first voice sensor device, the thermostat is in communication with the voice command manager over the network and the thermostat is configured to receive natural language voice commands from a user via the first voice sensor device, and to communicate the received natural language voice commands in an audio file to the voice command manager over the network without the thermostat attempting to recognize natural language voice commands in the audio file; a second voice sensor device in communication with the voice command manager over the network, the second voice sensor device configured to receive natural language voice commands from a user via the second voice sensor device, and to communicate the natural language voice commands to the voice command manager over the network; and wherein the voice command manager translates the natural language voice commands received from the thermostat and the natural language voice commands received from the second voice sensor device into one or more commands understandable by the thermostat, and transmits the one or more commands to the thermostat for execution.
