What changed

USPTO granted Patent US12609011B2 to ADEIA GUIDES INC. on April 21, 2026, covering systems and methods for package monitoring from point of shipment through post-delivery events. The patent describes a first platform associated with a camera at the delivery address that determines when a package is delivered to a designated drop-off area, then monitors that area for movement. The system distinguishes between authorized and unauthorized users and performs actions to address unauthorized movement.

For competitors in logistics, delivery management, or smart home security, this patent establishes intellectual property boundaries around sensor-based package monitoring technology. Companies developing similar delivery confirmation or porch piracy prevention systems should conduct freedom-to-operate analyses to assess potential infringement exposure.

Abstract

Systems and methods of monitoring packages starting from a point of shipment from a warehouse, to delivery at a delivery address, and up to or through a post-delivery event affecting the packages are disclosed. At a first platform associated with a camera located at the delivery address of the package, the package is determined to be delivered at a designated drop-off area associated with the delivery address. Based on determining that the package has been delivered, the designated drop-off area is monitored for movement in relation to the package. Based on detecting movement in the designated drop-off area, a determination is made as to whether the movement is associated with an authorized user or an unauthorized user. Based on determining that the movement is associated with an unauthorized user, an action is performed to address the movement of the unauthorized user in relation to the package.
