Abstract
This application describes techniques for detecting a single event based on consecutive actions. For instance, a network device may associate a first electronic device that includes a first field of view (FOV) with a second electronic device that includes a second FOV. When the network device receives data indicating that the first electronic device detected possible motion, the network device may transmit a first message to a client device. Additionally, when the network device receives data indicating that the second electronic device detected motion within a threshold period of time to the first electronic device detecting the motion, the network device may not transmit a second message. Determining not to transmit the second message may be based on characteristics of the electronic devices, such as locations of the electronic devices, fields of view of the electronic devices, or a distance between the electronic device devices.
