20230086809 · 2023-03-23 ·

A solution which targets perimeter infrastructure. The solution comprises a plugin which integrates a dedicated security video camera management system with a comprehensive security system management system. A foundation is thereby provided which utilizes many advantages that are found in the security system management system, such as the creation of entities, Event -to Actions, and role fail-over. Use of the plugin results in an overall system where operators of the security system can imbed their own images and branding on the video streams. Users can effectively brand their edge devices without having to interface with the devices directly.

Light sensor chip adaptable to low illumination environment
11611710 · 2023-03-21 · ·

There is provided an image processing device including a light sensor and a processor. The light sensor is used to detect light and output an image frame. The processor identifies intensity of ambient light according to an image parameter associated with the image frame. When the ambient light is identified to be strong enough, the processor performs an object identification directly using the image frame. When the ambient light is identified to be not enough, the processor firstly converts the image frame to a converted image using a machine learning model, and then performs the object identification using the converted image.
