A method for object monitoring of a rail vehicle using a video monitoring system includes capturing a measurement signal of a video camera and determining image data of an environment of a vehicle interior according to the captured measurement signal. A piece of luggage in the vehicle interior is identified according to the determined image data. The identified piece of luggage is personalized. A manipulation of the identified piece of luggage is determined according to a predefined manipulation condition. A notification signal is sent according to the determined manipulation and according to the personalizing of the identified piece of luggage. A device for operating a video monitoring system for a rail vehicle for object monitoring and a rail vehicle are also provided.

Methods are disclosed for providing Lawful Intercept (LI) for vehicles. In one embodiment the method includes providing, to at least one autonomous vehicle, at least one vehicle number of a vehicle being tracked and using a camera of the at least one autonomous vehicle, determining a vehicle number of the a vehicle the autonomous vehicle has encountered. The method further includes comparing the vehicle number of the vehicle the autonomous vehicle encountered to the vehicle number of the vehicle being tracked, and when the vehicle number of the vehicle the autonomous vehicle encountered matches the vehicle number of the vehicle being tracked, sending a message to law enforcement that the vehicle being tracked has been encountered.

Systems and methods for use of autonomous mobile machine for blind spot coverage may include a security controller that determines a security coverage area based on data from a facility map indicating physical and functional representations of a facility and objects within the facility. The security controller may also determine a surveillance area based on the security coverage area. The security controller may also transmit, to an autonomous mobile machine, instructions for the autonomous mobile machine to deploy to the surveillance area and perform a surveillance task at the surveillance area.

Systems and methods are provided for monitoring and mapping a theft of a target vehicle. One method includes grouping a plurality of vehicles in communication with a network to collectively monitor and collect evidence of theft of the target vehicle using camera sensors located in each of the plurality of vehicles. The network is operably connected with at least one processor. At least one input from at least one camera sensor of the plurality of vehicles is obtained and analyzed to determine a direction of travel of the target vehicle. The method includes generating a digital map including an indication of a location and a trajectory based on the direction of travel of the target vehicle. The method provides a communication to a law enforcement agency or a user, with the communication including the digital map.

A server includes: a registration unit that registers identification information for identifying a detection target in a storage unit; a detection target determination unit that determines whether the detection target is shown in an image captured on or around a road, based on the identification information; an abnormal behavior determination unit that determines whether the detection target exhibits an abnormal behavior that is different from a normal behavior of the detection target, when the detection target is shown in the image; and an alert transmission unit that transmits an alert when the detection target exhibits the abnormal behavior.

A control device comprising a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: acquire a warning level indicating a warning measure related to an abnormality that has occurred in a vehicle, from a device installed externally to the vehicle; detect an abnormality that has occurred in the vehicle, from equipment mounted to the vehicle; perform thinning control on a detection result of the abnormality detected according to the warning level; and transmit the detection result resulting from thinning to the device.

Systems, methods, and related technologies are disclosed for multi-device robot control. In one implementation, input(s) are received and provided to a personal assistant or another application or service. In response, command(s) directed to an external device are received, e.g., from the personal assistant. Based on the command(s), a robot is maneuvered in relation to a location associated with the external device. Transmission of instruction(s) from the robot to the external device is initiated.

Aspects of the disclosure provide systems and methods for recognizing an assigned passenger. For instance, dispatching instructions to pick up a passenger at a pickup location are received. The instructions include authentication information for authenticating a client computing device associated with the passenger. A vehicle is maneuvered in an autonomous driving mode towards the pickup location. The client device is then authenticated. After authentication, a set of pedestrians within a predetermined distance of the vehicle are identified from sensor information generated by a sensor of the vehicle and location information is received over a period of time from the client device. The received location information is used to estimate a velocity of the passenger. This estimated velocity is used to identify a subset of set of pedestrians that is likely to be the passenger. The vehicle is stopped to allow the passenger to enter the vehicle based on the subset.

Systems and methods for monitoring event through the use of occurrence records in order to take one or more actions are described herein. An occurrence record is received and processed. The occurrence record includes one or more parameters and are indicative of an event of a given type. The received occurrence record is compared to one or more trigger-based rules. When a trigger condition of a trigger-based rule is met, the trigger-based rule is executed. When one or more other conditions of the executed trigger-based rule is met, a command for an action is generated.

An information processing device includes a processor configured to: acquire connection information representing a state of a connection region including a connection portion that connects a vehicle and a power supply target such that power is able to be supplied; determine whether the connection information includes information indicating an abnormality in the connection portion; and output information that issues a notification that the connection portion is abnormal when the processor determines that the connection information includes the information indicating an abnormality in the connection portion.
