According to one embodiment, an image-processing apparatus includes an output unit, a tracker, a storage controller, a setter, and an output controller. The tracker tracks a target object in one or more time-series images. The storage controller stores tracking information including a movement trajectory of the object in a predetermined storage. The setter sets a detection region for detecting passing through of the object based on the movement trajectory of the object, on the image, in accordance with a user's operation. An evaluator evaluates a setting mode for the detection region based on the tracking information stored in the predetermined storage and the detection region set by the setter. The output controller outputs the tracking information stored in predetermined storage, from the output unit, in an output mode based on an evaluation result of the evaluator.

Methods and systems for motion detection are provided. Aspects includes receiving, from a sensor, sensor data associated with an area proximate to the sensor, determining an event type based on a feature vector, utilizing a machine learning model, the feature vector comprising a plurality of features extracted from the sensor data, and generating an alert based on the event type.

The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for displaying event indicators on an event timeline. In one aspect, a method includes: displaying a video monitoring user interface including: video information corresponding to a video stream of remote camera's field of view in a first region, and the event timeline in a second region; obtaining identification of a new zone of interest corresponding to a portion of the camera's field of view; sending information indicative of the new zone of interest to a server system; obtaining identification of one or more past motion events detected by the remote camera involving the new zone of interest; and updating display of the event timeline to display an event indicator having a visual characteristic corresponding to the new zone of interest for each of the one or more past motion events.

An inventory system, apparatus and method. The method to be used in a cooler that includes a power module provides power to the inventory system from an electric source, battery, WIFI charge, wireless charge and/or combination thereof, a computer processor coupled to the power module, a memory module coupled to the computer processor, an image capturing module coupled to the processor, a movement module coupled to the processor; wherein the movement module triggers the image capturing device to capture images of products in a cooler due to a movement.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for attempted entry detection are disclosed. A method for monitoring a property includes receiving, from a smart lock of a door located at a property monitored by a monitoring system, smart lock data that reflects a condition of the smart lock; receiving, from a sensor of the monitoring system, sensor data; analyzing the smart lock data and the sensor data; based on analyzing the smart lock data and the sensor data, determining that an attempted door entry is occurring; and in response to determining that an attempted door entry is occurring, performing a monitoring system action. Determining that an attempted door entry is occurring can include determining, based on the sensor data, that a person is located near the smart lock; and determining, based on analyzing the smart lock data, that the smart lock data satisfies criteria for an attempted door entry.

A system, method and apparatus for configuring a person detection sensor. The person detection sensor may limit its transmissions in accordance with a pre-configured dwell time. The person detection sensor may receive a new dwell time from a personal communication device. When the new dwell time is received, it is stored in memory and is then used to regulate the number of transmissions of the person detection sensor in accordance with the new dwell time.

A method for mitigating a potential security issue with one or more electric and gas cooking appliances equipped with a power interrupt circuit and capable of receiving a wireless signal operated in a monitored space includes conducting video and or audio surveillance of the cooking equipment and the surrounding monitored space using a surveillance device having wireless communications capability, where upon detection of anomaly characterized as motion, sound, or other interference that may be defined by the surveillance device as a security issue, conducting analysis of the data in comparison with archived data to disqualify or qualify the anomaly as a security issue, whereupon qualifying the anomaly detected and analyzed as a security threat, sending a wireless command to the power interrupt circuit to interrupt electric power flow to the one or more electric cooking appliances.

The disclosed embodiments include a method for presenting video information. The method includes: (1) receiving user identification of a first spatial zone corresponding to a first portion of the field of view of a remote camera; (2) displaying a first outline in a first color for the first spatial zone overlaid on a visual image; (3) receiving second user identification of a second spatial zone corresponding to a second portion of the field of view of the remote camera; (4) displaying a second outline in a second color for the second spatial zone overlaid on the visual image; and (5) displaying a visual indicator indicating that motion was detected in at least one spatial zone, the visual indicator having a color corresponding to the spatial zone in which the motion was detected.

A bridge device spoofs a wireless router on behalf of an audio/video recording and communication device (A/V device) to keep a connection with the router active. This prevents the router from dropping the connection with the A/V device. Without the spoofing, the A/V device would have to reestablish a connection which may delay data transmission from the A/V device. The bridge device spoofs the A/V device by sending keepalive messages, which consumes significant power. The A/V device thereby consumes less power because the A/V device does not send keepalive messages while being spoofed by the bridge device. The A/V device and the bridge device communicate over a separate, lower power communication channel, so that the bridge can, for example, tell the A/V device when to wake up and resume communication with the router.

The invention relates to a civil engineering device with an undercarriage with a crawler chassis, an upper carriage, which is arranged on the undercarriage, and a mast, which is mounted vertically oriented on the upper carriage. According to the invention it is provided that arranged on an upper area of the mast is at least one camera, by which an image of the civil engineering device and its surroundings can be recorded.
