Your home knows who's in it — including the four-legged ones
Multi-device person and pet tracking that feeds into every automation decision.
What actually happens
Pet-Aware Lighting
Lights stay off for pets, activate for people.
Cat enters living room
BLE tag on collar detected by living room sensor
Pet vs person check
somni_pets identifies movement as pet, somni_occupancy marks room as 'pet only' — not 'occupied'
Lights stay off
No lights activate for pet-only presence. When a person enters, normal lighting resumes.

somni_person matches device signatures to your profile, triggers your arrival routine
Your preferences activate
Your preferred lighting profile, thermostat setting, and music playlist activate. Other household members get their own.

Pet Activity Monitoring
Track pet activity patterns and get alerts for unusual behavior.
Dog hasn't moved in 4 hours
somni_pets detects no location changes for extended period during waking hours
Activity check
somni_pets compares against normal activity patterns for this pet and time of day
Optional notification

Presence detection that understands context
The difference between a smart home and an annoying one is context. somni_pets tracks your animals so the system doesn't turn on lights every time the cat walks through a room. somni_person identifies each household member so automations can be personalized. And somni_occupancy aggregates all of this into a unified view of who's where.
