A multiple input multi-media switch box allowing for communication between video surveillance cameras, a multi-media player, and a public view monitor for seamless transitions between frames and or advertising media is disclosed. The switch box displays a first video surveillance content on the PVM for a predetermined time, the converter switch freezes the last frame on the first video surveillance image and displays advertising media while buffering the new input from a second video surveillance, then the converter switch releases and displays the new input from the second video surveillance video.

A security system is described for managing a premises. The security system comprises security system components and a first controller. A takeover component receives security data of the security system from the first controller. The security data is used to configure a second controller to communicate with the security system. The second controller communicates with the security system components and replaces the first controller in management of the security system.

A monitoring camera having artificial intelligence includes an imaging unit, a communication unit that receives a parameter relating to a detection target from a terminal device, and a processing unit that constructs the artificial intelligence based on the parameter, and uses the constructed artificial intelligence to detect the detection target from an image captured by the imaging unit.

To provide an information processing system, an information processing method, and a recording medium, which are capable of assisting in a search for a moving image using a graph of data which is not obtained from image analysis associated with a moving image. Provided is an information processing system, including: a moving image data acquiring unit configured to acquire moving image data; a communication unit configured to receive sensor data associated with the moving image data and chronological data corresponding to a shooting time of the moving image data; an image signal processing unit configured to perform image analysis on the moving image data and generate image analysis result data; and a control unit configured to generate an interface including the moving image data and graphs of at least two pieces of data among the sensor data, the chronological data, and the image analysis result data.

An object recognition enabled, for example facial recognition enabled, video surveillance system for capturing video of a scene and allowing recognition of objects within that scene. The system comprises at least one camera apparatus connected via a communication channel to a central server with the camera apparatus arranged for capturing visual representation data of a scene. The visual representation data comprises video of the scene and the camera apparatus comprises a camera for capturing said video and a video encoder for sending corresponding video data via the communication channel to the central server. The camera apparatus is further arranged for generating object recognition data based on said visual representation data, and the video encoder is arranged to send said object recognition data along with the video data via the communication channel.

Techniques are described for selecting an alarm state based at least in part on determining a security event related to security and automation systems. One method includes receiving, from a sensor, a first indication of a security event at the first location, determining a first threat level based on the security event, and activating a first alarm state based at least in part on the first threat level.

A processing device includes circuitry configured to estimate a tracking target captured in image data by an imaging unit operating in a manual tracking mode, the manual tracking mode being a mode in which the tracking target is tracked by controlling at least one of a pan operation, a tilt operation and a zoom operation of the imaging unit by instructions from an external source.

Provided is an information processing system, including a moving image data acquiring unit that acquires moving image data, a communication unit that receives sensor data associated with the moving image data and chronological data corresponding to a shooting time of the moving image data, an image signal processing unit that performs image analysis on the moving image data and generate image analysis result data, and a control unit that generates an interface including the moving image data and graphs of at least two pieces of data among the sensor data, the chronological data, and the image analysis result data.

An antitheft apparatus includes: a mechanism for acquiring first event information related to an alert mode; a mechanism for controlling the alert mode in accordance with the first event information; a mechanism for monitoring movement of an object when the alert mode is enabled; and a mechanism for outputting an alarm when the alert mode is enabled and movement of the object is detected.
