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.

Methods for sharing private video streams with first responders under facility administrator control

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. 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 transient link to a secure webserver which expires to limit exposure to ranges of date-time. Video servers remain controlled by the facility administrator.

Method and system for sharing private video stream assets with first responders

A system includes a real-time partitioning separation kernel installed on a multi-core processor. Guest operating systems are hosted with in hardware virtualized machines in the cores. Another hardware virtualized machine performs a real-time USB-CAN interface communicatively coupled to distributed electronic control units which acquire data and command actuators. A plurality of hardware virtualized machines support processes of various criticality. A secure shared memory serves as the communication means between processes performing different levels of functionality at suitable latency ranges. a policy to distinguish, allocate, and distribute clock, memory, and input/output resources to meet focused latency ranges to the Observation, Decision, and Execution processes. Remaining resources have diffuse latency ranges made available to the Observation, Decision, and Execution processes in an as available but guarded minimum and maximum buffet. A latency policy ensures that each process receives its minimum tranche before queueing for up to the maximum at the resource buffet.

System, methods, and apparatus for sharing private video stream assets with first responders

A system provides a transformed video stream from, a publicly or privately owned and operated camera bearing on an in-scope location vicinity, to, a responding emergency service agency (ESA). A request from an emergency services agent's display terminal includes location indicia and elicits a map of cameras bearing on the location vicinity as well as other display terminals in the area. Upon request, an application programming interface enables a video stream to comply with the privacy and access settings of the camera owner/operators. A plurality of private and public security surveillance cameras is coupled to a server. Exterior/street view video images are streamed to the server which may contact an owner for emergency access. An emergency agency vehicle at a location has a display for a selected gallery of obfuscated exterior/street views from cooperative networks of public and private security cameras bearing on the vicinity of an incident.

Real time camera map for emergency video stream requisition service

Private video streams are provided to emergency services agents' devices by authenticating UDP packets at an access control server and initiating an Application Programming Interface at a video server. The access control server conditionally responds to a UDP query from a mobile device with an answer containing an address of an API. Settings provided by a facility/video stream owner validate the query, and synthesize a one-time IPv6 address. A virtual machine image of an API couples cameras to mobile devices. Video images are transformed into a pastiche with 2D facility maps or 3D models. The device transforms an optical image e.g. a QRcode into a packet for transmission as a query. The packet contains authentication credentials and identity indicia of sender and desired video image access. The device receives a reply containing the address of the API and displays resulting video.

A camera-based security system protects an asset by detecting an aerial surveillor and consequently storing notifications into a video archive, alerting to an operator console, and actuating privation apparatus. One or more cameras provides video streams to a processor which derives object motion. Attributes of object motion trigger notification to record and alert on conditions associated with an aerial surveillor. Tracking of pixels, pixel blocks, and motion vectors enable rules based determination of an airborne surveillance vehicle according to characteristic hovering or lingering by masking LSB of accumulated positive and negative movements. Actuators cause privation enhancement apparatus to obfuscate the protected asset (structure, area, or volume) or to interpose between the protected asset and the surveillor without damage or disabling. The method traces a travel path of an object; and determines a ray from a private property to a surveillor drone.

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.

A high definition surveillance video storage optimization system executes purging directives according to policy and retention meta data. Segments of video are purged from storage when thresholds of retention metrics are applied and when policy permits. Retention metrics are determined from acoustic sound energy, radiation energy, access control events, and movement. Policies reflect calendars and elapsed time, percentage of available storage, statutory and judicial mandates, and utility of the stored segments. Extrinsic sensor data and operations are recorded into non-transitory retention meta data stores. Metrics are transformed into retention flags at either time of recordation or time of purgation. Security file storage includes metadata about the environment acquired by sensors include doors, audio noise, object identification and tracking and inputs which influence retention or purging. A circuit filters for motion and stores metadata per segment. Meta data enables content based purging of least consequential files.

High definition surveillance image storage optimization and retention triggering apparatus

An apparatus provides a quick view of security events by transformation of surveillance video streams stored over many hours. Images captured at one or more video surveillance cameras are transformed into a summary of activities by triggering on contents within the views. Selected key images are bookended by anticipatory or consequential frames for better comprehension. Variable masking scopes the date-times of interest to a display user. A frame selection process is triggered by video encoding and compression indicia to eliminate duplication and inactivity. Hours of H.264 encoded video are reduced to seconds of surveillance animation. Motion indicia in video frames and pixel blocks steer the short summary. Timespans and camera views of inactivity are purged from the summary. To meet time management budgets, the report is transmitted to a display/selection apparatus as a mix of still images and video activity glimpses.

A circuit budgets torque among independent field-oriented motor control circuits. A desired vehicle yaw turning moment is received from an operator control input. The circuit determines a positive or negative torque target for each electrically powered drive wheel and transmits it to an adaptive field-oriented motor control circuit which provides voltage magnitude and voltage frequency to a poly-phase synchronous alternating current electric motor. When wheel loading, limited traction, or stability prevents any motor from attaining the torque target, that data is returned to the budgeting circuit and torque budget is adjusted for all adaptive field-oriented motor control circuits. Varying numbers of powered wheels are assigned torque depending on vehicle dynamics. Performance of the vehicle can be adapted to driver capabilities. A vehicle may serve as a driving simulator for diverse vehicles.
