A process of collaboration between different agencies for classifying an event captured in a video stream. In operation, a video stream captured by a camera operated by a public-safety agency is analyzed using a first video analytics engine trained using a first set of video analytics data associated with the public-safety agency and an abnormal event with respect to a person or object captured in the video stream is detected. When it is determined that the video stream is captured at a location that is proximity to an operating environment of a non-public-safety agency, a query is transmitted to a second video analytics engine trained using a second set of video analytics data associated with the non-public-safety agency. The abnormal event is reclassified as a normal event when a response from the second video analytics engine indicates that the abnormal event is normal within the operating environment of the non-public-safety agency.

A process of augmenting images of incident scenes with object descriptions retrieved from an audio stream. In operation, an electronic computing device detects an object of interest in an image captured corresponding to an incident scene and identifies an audio stream linked to an incident identifier of an incident that occurred at the incident scene. The electronic computing device then determines whether the audio stream contains an audio description of the detected object of interest. When it is determined that the audio stream contains the audio description of the detected object of interest, the electronic computing device generates a visual or audio prompt corresponding to the audio description of the detected object of interest and plays back the visual or audio prompt via a corresponding display or audio-output component communicatively coupled to the electronic computing device.

A process for operating an electronic computing device to assign video streams to watcher devices. The electronic computing device detects objects of interest within a field-of-view of a camera as a function of incident context information. The electronic computing device obtains video display characteristics associated with watcher devices and further determines, based on respective positions of the objects of interest within the field-of-view, a plurality of sub-regions each enclosing at least one of the detected objects of interest and having one or more video attributes. The electronic computing device then assigns, based on the video display characteristics associated with the watcher devices and the video attributes of the sub-regions, each of the sub-regions to a respectively selected one of the watcher devices. The video streams respectively captured corresponding to each of the assigned sub-regions of interest are then transmitted to the respectively selected one of the watcher devices.

A process for providing a time-compressed preview of a pre-buffered video during a push-to-video (PTV) communication session. A video communication device detects a PTV activation command and analyzes a pre-buffered video to detect objects of interest. The video communication device then establishes a PTV communication session with a second video communication device to transmit a time-compressed preview of the pre-buffered video in which some of the video segments in which the objects of interest appear are configured for accelerated playback at the second video communication device. The video communication device transmits a live PTV stream for synchronous playback at the second video communication device only after the transmission of the time-compressed preview of the pre-buffered video is completed.

A user's device will periodically send short PTT bursts to an application talkgroup and wait for an acknowledgement (ACK). The acknowledgement will allow the software application to execute the application as part of the site license. If the site license is used up (i.e., a maximum number of simultaneous users has been reached), then a negative acknowledgment (NACK) will be sent to the device, and the software will deny the user access to the software.

Method and apparatus for limiting a number of simultaneous users of software

A method and apparatus for notifying authors of a conflict in a report is described herein. During operation authors' devices will be dynamically added to a particular talkgroup if it is determined that a conflict in a report has been detected.
