A vehicle abnormality monitoring method includes starting, by a vehicle, a monitoring device to record a first video when detecting an abnormal event; determining a roadside device in an area where the vehicle is located; and sending, to the roadside device, a monitoring request requesting the roadside device to record a second video of the abnormal event, where the first video and the second video are configured to trace the abnormal event.

A video record system and an operation method thereof are provided. The video record system includes at least one camera and a controller connected with the at least one camera. The controller records a video around a vehicle using the at least one camera, records location information of the vehicle when recording the video, and provides a list of videos recorded according to a driving situation of the vehicle.

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 security and smart home system, components thereof, and associated methods. The system can include a host-carried monitor configured to monitor data associated with the host, such as motion data, position data, temperature data, or humidity data. The system can include one or more security devices located at a premises to monitor security data at the premises, with the one or more security devices in communication with a remote server programmed to process security event signals from the one or more security devices and transmit action instructions to the one or more security devices. Security devices can include an electrical power switch, an electrical power plug, and a camera.

Disclosed are methods, systems, and apparatus for monitoring delivered packages using video. A method includes obtaining a notification of a delivery of a package at a property that includes a first image depicting the package; obtaining a second image captured by a camera at the property; determining, using the first image and the second image, that the package has been delivered to the property; generating a package model that represents an appearance of the package; and tracking a location of the package for use in determining whether to provide an alert to a device about the location of the package. Determining that the package has been delivered to the property comprises: comparing the first image to a model of a scene of the property; determining that the first image satisfies similarity criteria for matching the model of the scene; and determining that the second image likely depicts the package.

An image processing apparatus is provided. An image photographed by a camera that photographs the surroundings of the vehicle is received. An overhead image, a vehicle travel direction image, and a vehicle lateral side image corresponding to a vehicle movement direction which is either left or right of the vehicle is generated based on the image. The generated image is displayed on a display unit. For example, a display image is generated or updated in accordance with a travel direction of the vehicle and direction-of-rotation information of a steering wheel. In a case where the vehicle is backed counter-clockwise, the overhead image, the vehicle rear image, and a vehicle left side image are generated and displayed. In a case where the vehicle is backed clockwise, the overhead image, the vehicle rear image, and a vehicle right side image are generated and displayed.

The present disclosure provides a lock system including automated notification and surveillance integration. In the lock system of the present disclosure, when any of the locks included in the lock system are locked or unlocked, a notification or communication signal is sent to at least one other device. The at least one other device may be a receiver, smart phone, smart watch, laptop, desktop, and/or an Internet connected or Internet of Things (IoT) device. In one aspect, the at least one other device is an image capturing device that captures one or more images of the lock that has been locked or unlocked and the surrounding area the lock is disposed in responsive to the notification or communication signal sent. The lock system of the present disclosure is configured for use with electronic locks, mechanical locks, and/or hybrid electronic-mechanical locks.

When captured videos transmitted from n units of cameras are received, a server analyzes position information and characteristic information on a person appearing in each of captured videos as analysis results. A client terminal displays, on a screen, each of a k number of captured videos that are selected by a user operation. According to a selection of a search target person, the client terminal transmits, to the server, a search request for the search target person in a (k−1) number of captured videos other than the captured video in which the search target person appears. The server extracts the search target person and transmits the analysis result to the client terminal. The client terminal displays cut-out images of one or more persons identical with or similar to the search target person based on the analysis result.

A security system including a detection device, an imaging device and a controller. The detection device being a detection device through which people traverse. The detection device producing a signal representative of at least one of an object being carried by a person and a distribution of metal carried by the person. The imaging device produces an image of the person. The controller executing the steps of determining whether the signal from the detection device exceeds a predetermined value; instructing the imaging device to capture an image of the person if the determining step indicates that the signal exceeds the predetermined value thereby creating a captured image; transmitting the captured image to selected data devices assigned to trusted individuals; and receiving a response from at least one of the data devices, the response indicating an action to be taken regarding the person.

A camera is provided that has an image sensor having a plurality of pixel elements for recording image data of an object stream moved in a direction of movement relative to the camera and having objects of a height, and a control and evaluation unit that is configured to determine the height of a respective object with reference to the image data. The image sensor here is an event-based image sensor and the control and evaluation unit is configured to detect a measurement series of points in time at which pixel elements adjacent in the direction of movement consecutively register an event to determine a speed of an object image of the object on the image sensor from said measurement series and from this the height.
