    摘要: A method enables video surveillance service subscribers to share image streams with individual first responder agencies in the event of emergency. A customer administrator selects permissions on each camera via privileged web-browser or mobile device. Permissions enable selection by static meta data such as type, audio, location, motion, recognition, spectrum, and epoch. Setting ranges of time controls access to video streams of present and past epochs. Under control by a customer administrator, a virtual machine dedicated to each responding agency instantiates a video server. A camera is shared by a customer administrator's selection of permissions on each camera via privileged web-browser or mobile device. Video streams of present and past epochs are controlled by ranges of time. A notification is customized for each responding agency and each event by dynamically generating a link to a secure webserver which records geo-location or network identifiers for validation.

    摘要: A private video surveillance service shares an image stream through an asset lock with government agencies in the event of emergency. Nominated agencies establish access credentials at the surveillance service data center. A camera is shared by a facility administrator's selection of permissions on each camera via privileged web-browser or mobile device. Permissions enable selection by static meta data such as type, audio, location, motion, recognition, PTZR, spectrum, and epoch. Video streams of present and past epochs are controlled by ranges of time. A government agency receives an electronic notification from the administrator to operate an agency dedicated application programming interface. A notification may be customized for each responding agency and each event by dynamically generating a link to a secure webserver which records geo-location or network identifiers for validation. Video servers remain controlled by the facility administrator.

    摘要: A video surveillance service shares image streams with mobile first responders in the event of emergency. Nominated agencies establish access credentials at the surveillance service data center. A camera is shared by a customer administrator's selection of permissions on each camera via privileged web-browser or mobile device. Permissions enable selection by static meta data such as type, audio, location, motion, recognition, PTZR, spectrum, and epoch. Video streams of present and past epochs are controlled by ranges of time. A responding agency receives an electronic notification from the administrator to present their access credential and a handle for each shared camera of interest. A notification is customized for each responding agency and each event by dynamically generating a link to a secure webserver which records geo-location or network identifiers for validation or sanity checking. Video servers include virtual machines dedicated to each responding agency under control by a customer administrator.

    摘要: A lossy compression method optimizes bandwidth and storage for a security surveillance network. An appliance on a local network attached to event capture terminals transforms image files into a key frame and at least one subsequent frame. Decompression combines a subsequent frame with its key frame to provide an image with graduated resolution/noise clutter. A camera records, and forwards a plurality of image files compatible with JPEG encoding. Key frames are selected from among the plurality of image files. A configurable low pass filter is reset for each train of a key frame and its subsequent frame or frames. Each low pass filter is selectively applied to each pixel block within a subsequent frame. The transformation operates on coefficients of frequency bins. Meta data enables decompression of a single subsequent frame by reversing some of the transformations to provide a JPEG compatible file having selectively reduced resolution or noise clutter.
