A system for monitoring advertisements has a security camera and sensor that are positioned to monitor an area surrounding the advertising structure with the advertisement. The camera and sensor can be controlled by a control module. The control module can activate the camera in response to receiving a signal from the sensor indicating activity in the area surrounding the advertising structure. The camera can capture images of the area surrounding the advertising structure and provide the images to the control module. The control module can then provide the images to a server for access by a user.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to using cognitive automation for enhanced ATM security. A computing platform may receive, from a first automated teller machine (ATM), first ATM information indicating a first interaction between a user and the first ATM. The computing platform may receive, from a first camera, a first image, which may show the user performing the first interaction with the first ATM. Based on the first ATM information and the first image, the computing platform may determine that the first ATM is experiencing malicious activity. The computing platform may send, to a second ATM, one or more commands directing the second ATM to perform a first security action, which may cause the second ATM to perform the first security action.

A mesh network-based environmental data capture system and method for providing communication between a base system having at least one wireless input capture device ICD(s) and other ICD(s), wherein the ICD(s) are capable of smart cross-communication with each other and remote access to their inputs via a server computer, including the steps of providing this base system; at least one user accessing the ICDs and inputs remotely via a user interface through a remote server computer and/or electronic device communicating with it, for providing a secure surveillance system with extended inputs range and wireless smart cross-communication for monitoring a target environment.

A system receives a digital representation of a biometric for a person, uses the digital representation of the biometric to determine and/or otherwise retrieve identity information associated with the person, and uses the identity information to perform one or more actions related to the person's presence in one or more areas. For example, the system may estimate a path for the person and signal an agent electronic device based on the path. In another example, the system may determine a presence of a person within the area and/or transmit information to an agent electronic device regarding the determined presence. In still another example, the system may receive a request to communicate with the person and forward the communication to the person using the identity information.

Park monitoring methods, park monitoring systems, and computer-readable storage media are provided. A method includes: determining a first path from a current position of a first object to a first position; generating a 3D virtual image of a surrounding environment when the first object is moving along the first path based on a perspective of the first object; and when the first object is located at the first position, displaying a real image of the first position.

A system for monitoring gaining activities associated with a gaming surface, the system including a gaming equipment having the gaining surface and a display system connected to the gaming equipment, such as an improved limit sign. The system also includes device camera connected on the display system having a first field of view tracking, for example, betting markers, gaining tokens, a gaming participant and, the gaming surface. The system can interoperate with other camera systems to establish a common coordinate space for coordinated image processing and machine learning based on model representations of a spatial space using the common coordinate space. The calibration can occur dynamically to automatically adjust for camera reconfigurations.

A monitoring system can be configured to monitor activities or actions occurring in clinical settings, such as hospitals. The monitoring system can improve patient safety. The system can use visual and/or other tracking methods. The system can detect and/or identify people in a clinical setting. The system can also track activities of the people, for example, to improve adherence to hygiene protocols.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for nanosatellite-based property monitoring are disclosed. A method includes receiving satellite data related to conditions of a property monitored by a monitoring system; determining, based on the satellite data, that the property is at risk from a threat; requesting, from a sensor of the monitoring system, sensor data related to the threat; receiving, from the sensor, the sensor data related to the threat; and based on analyzing the sensor data related to the threat, performing one or more monitoring system actions. The threat may include one of a weather hazard, a security hazard, or a property damage hazard. The monitoring system actions can include sending an instruction to adjust a sensor or component of the monitoring system and can include sending, to a user device, a notification that the property is at risk from the threat.

A camera assembly, including: an enclosure having at least two mounting surfaces that are orthogonal to each other for alignment with at least two orthogonal surfaces against which the camera assembly is to be mounted; at least one imaging apparatus disposed within the enclosure and having a predetermined orientation with respect to the enclosure; and a communication device disposed within the enclosure; and a server disposed at a location remote from where the camera is mounted. The camera assembly and the server communicate over a computer communication network to identify at least one mounting measurement of the camera assembly to establish a mapping from an image coordinate system for images generated by the imaging apparatus and a real world coordinate system aligned with an orientation defined by the at least two orthogonal surfaces.

A monitoring system according to the present disclosure includes a cable (20) comprising an optical fiber, a reception unit (31) configured to receive an optical signal including a pattern corresponding to a state of a monitoring target (10) from at least one optical fiber included in the cable (20) and to detect the pattern from the received optical signal, and a control unit (32) configured to detect the state of the monitoring target (10) based on the pattern.
