Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media for supporting communication between a first device, such as a smartphone, and a second device, such as a smart thermostat associated with a heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. In one aspect, a smartphone with a temperature sensor can detect a local environment temperature and communicate with the smart thermostat to turn on/off various HVAC modules to adjust the temperature in that local environment. In some implementations, a first smartphone can be used to detect the temperature in a first room and communicate with the smart thermostat to turn on/off various HVAC modules in the first room, and a second smartphone can be used to detect another temperature in a second room and communicate with the smart thermostat to turn on/off various HVAC modules in the second room.

Claim (Index 11):
An electronic device for wireless communication, comprising:\n a temperature sensor; a network interface; a processor; memory in electronic communication with the processor; and instructions stored in the memory and operable, when executed by the processor, to cause the electronic device to:\n detect a first air temperature in a first area; \n compare the detected first air temperature to a first threshold; and \n instruct a smart thermostat to adjust the first air temperature in the first area based on the first threshold comparison; \n wherein, if the detected first air temperature is above the first threshold, the smart thermostat is configured to decrease the first air temperature in the first area; and \n wherein, if the detected first air temperature is below the first threshold, the smart thermostat is configured to increase the first air temperature in the first area.
