The invention relates to a method for reconstructing an output image and/or a sequence of output images from raw image data, wherein, in at least one reconstruction chain between a recording of raw image data by means of an image recording device and a display of the output image and/or the sequence of output images on a display unit, at least one reconstruction step for reconstructing the output image and/or the sequence of output images is carried out, and wherein the result of the at least one reconstruction step is discarded when the result is recognized as invalid with respect to the fulfillment of a verification criterion.

At a high level, embodiments of the invention relate to augmenting video data with presence data derived from one or more proximity tags. More specifically, embodiments of the invention generate forensically authenticated recordings linking video imagery to the presence of specific objects in or near the recording. One embodiment of the invention includes video recording system comprising a camera, a wireless proximity tag reader, a storage memory and control circuitry operable to receive image data from the camera receive a proximity tag identifier identifying a proximity tag from the proximity tag reader, and store an encoded frame containing the image data and the proximity tag identity in the storage memory.

A work machine includes: a machine body; an actuator attached to the machine body; an operation device used to operate the actuator; an operation sensor that senses an operation of the operation device; a photographing device that photographs surroundings of the machine body; a video data recording device that records video data including video photographed by the photographing device; a controller that controls the video data recording device; and an object sensor that senses an object in the surroundings of the machine body. The controller determines whether or not a recording and retaining condition including a condition that an object is present in the surroundings of the machine body and a condition that the operation device is operated is satisfied on the basis of a result of sensing in the object sensor and a result of sensing in the operation sensor, and makes the video data recording device record and retain the video data when the recording and retaining condition is satisfied.

A smart communications hub can enable management of driverless and/or autonomous vehicles. Separating current wireless data from driverless vehicle sensor data can allow for quicker resolutions involving driverless vehicles. The smart communications hub can communicate to other groups such as driverless vehicle providers, service providers, vehicle management, law enforcement, etc. The smart communications hub can also process request from both mobile applications and micro-service applications.
