Provided is a monitoring apparatus including a communication unit which receives streaming data and metadata of a video from each of a plurality of cameras installed indoors when the cameras obtain videos by capturing specific areas, respectively; a metadata analysis unit which analyzes the received metadata and extracts information about an event that occurred; a video selection unit which selects a video containing an area in which the event occurred from the videos based on the extracted information about the event; and a screen unit which receives the selected video from the video selection unit and immediately displays the received video when the monitoring apparatus is operated.

Techniques for video analytics of captured video content are described. An apparatus may comprise a flash memory, a serial bus, and a processor circuit coupled to the flash memory and the serial bus. The processor circuit may comprise a multi-core central processing unit (CPU) and an integrated graphics processing unit (GPU). The processor circuit may receive captured video content via a local communication link, perform video analytics on the captured video content; and send data associated with the performed video analytics to a network interface, for communication to a remote device via a network communication link. Other examples are described and claimed.

A digital video alarm analytics computer system includes a digital video analytics server including a digital video analytics computer having non-transitory memory storing machine instructions that are executed by the digital video analytics computer. The machine instructions when executed by the computer implement the following functions: receiving a digital video clip associated with a region of interest; motion analyzing the digital video clip to detect a motion location of a motion within the region of interest; object analyzing the digital video clip to detect an object, an object type of the object and an object location of the object within the digital video clip in response to detecting the motion location within the region of interest; and transmitting an alarm event signal to an alarm server in response to determining the object type is associated with an alarm analytics tag and the object location intersecting the region of interest.

A digital video alarm loitering monitoring system. The system includes a digital video analytics server including a digital video analytics computer having non-transitory memory configured to store machine instructions that are to be executed by the computer. The machine instructions when executed by the computer implement the following functions: obtaining a digital video snapshot from a digital video stream in response to detecting a loitering event indicator based on a potential loitering object; object analyzing the digital video snapshot to detect a detected object, a detected object type and a detected object location within the digital video snapshot; determining an active monitoring loitering object in response to the potential loitering object and the detected object; and repeating the obtaining, object analyzing and determining functions to determine a loitering condition.

A digital video alarm monitoring computer system. The system includes a computer having non-transitory memory configured to store machine instructions that are to be executed by the computer. The machine instructions when executed by the computer implement the following functions. The functions include receiving identifying data indicative of digital video data. The functions further include transmitting a digital video alarm status query. The functions also include receiving a digital video alarm monitoring status in response to transmitting the digital video alarm monitoring status query. The digital video alarm monitoring status may include an active status and an inactive status. The functions may further include transmitting or analyzing the digital video data in response to the digital video alarm status being the active status.

A digital video alarm situational monitoring computer system includes an alarm monitoring computer having non-transitory memory configured to store machine instructions that are to be executed by the computer. The machine instructions when executed by the computer implement the following functions: receiving a first digital video clip associated with a first digital video alarm event and a second digital video associated with a second digital video alarm event; displaying a first icon of the first digital video alarm event and a second icon of the second digital video alarm event on a graphical user interface; and simultaneously playing the first digital video clip and the second digital video clip on the graphical user interface.

A video surveillance system comprising a video management system, one or more computer-implemented digital devices and a plurality of application programs, the system being configured to run the programs on one of or across several of the said one or more computer-implemented digital devices, and configured to perform parallel processing of one or more groups of pictures from one or more video streams with the plurality of application programs in one or across several of the said one or more computer-implemented digital devices.

Systems and methods for correlating access-system primitives generated by an access control system and semantic primitives generated by a sensor data comprehension system.

Systems and methods are disclosed for operating a surveillance system and managing beacon-augmented surveillance data. A surveillance system may include a camera, a controller, and a transceiver. The camera may be configured to generate image data. The controller may be configured to generate image metadata that indicates a surveillance system identifier, upload the image data and the image metadata to a server, and generate a beacon that indicates the surveillance system identifier. The transceiver may be configured to transmit the beacon.
