20210136320 · 2021-05-06 ·

In one embodiment, a computing device receives, from one or more cameras, a video stream comprising multiple frames, where the video stream is received at a first quality. The computing device analyzes, using a machine-learning model, images in the frames, where the machine-learning model has been trained to detect one or more objects-of-interest in the images. The computing device identifies a sequence-of-interest including consecutive frames of the video stream, where at least one object-of-interest was detected in at least one of the consecutive frames. The computing device generates a video package including the sequence-of-interest.
