Blockchain-based trustless date verifiable video capture
11546560 · 2023-01-03 ·

A host system may initiate a multiple node exchange of selected values to generate a random selection. The structure of the exchange may allow later verification that no single node had control of the generation of the random selection. Accordingly, the random selection may be unknown prior to the exchange. The host system may then provide the random selection to the device for integration of the random selection during the capture of video. The video may be recorded to a blockchain. Because of the integration with the random selection, the video may be date verifiable, such that the video can be verified to be created after the random selection and before recordation to the blockchain.

Event detection method and system thereof

An event detection method is for detecting if an event being predetermined exists in a detected environment, in which a first wireless unit, at least one second wireless unit wirelessly communicating with the first wireless unit, and at least one cooperating detection device are disposed. The event detection method includes a live CSI data obtaining step, a live CSI data reducing step, a cooperating data obtaining step and an event determining step. The live CSI data reducing step includes reducing a size of a plurality of live CSI data to generate a plurality of preprocessed live CSI data. The event determining step includes inputting the preprocessed live CSI data to an event classifier and processing a plurality of cooperating data to determine if the event exists.

Reducing false triggers in motion-activated cameras
11546514 · 2023-01-03 · ·

This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for controlling motion-activated cameras. The present implementations more specifically relate to reducing false triggers in motion-activated camera systems. In some implementations, a motion-activated camera system may include a camera, a first motion sensor having a wide field-of-view (FOV), and a second motion sensor having a narrow FOV. In some aspects, the motion-activated camera system may be configured to operate in a wide-FOV mode or a narrow-FOV mode. In some implementations, the first motion sensor may trigger the camera to capture images of a scene responsive to motion detected in the wide FOV when the system is configured to operate in the wide-FOV mode. In some other implementations, the second motion sensor may trigger the camera to capture images of the scene responsive to motion detected in the narrow FOV when the system is configured to operate in the narrow-FOV mode.

IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM
20220417533 · 2022-12-29 ·

An apparatus for remote processing of raw image data receives the raw image data from a camera, such as a security camera. The apparatus includes a detection module to detect portions of the image data that contain possible regions of interest. Information indicating the portions that contain the possible regions of interest is then used during a compression process so that the portions that contain the possible regions of interest are compressed using one or more compression algorithms to facilitate further analysis and the remainder are treated differently. The compressed image data is then transmitted to a central system for decompression and further analysis. In some cases, the detection system may detect possible regions of interest which appear to be faces, but without performing full facial recognition. These parts of the image data are then compressed in such a way as to maintain as much facial detail as possible, so as to facilitate the facial recognition when it is carried out at the central server. The detection may be performed on the raw image data or may be performed as part of the compression process after a transformation of the raw image data has been carried out.
