Abstract
A smart camera for an electronic monitoring system is provided. The smart camera includes an imaging device having a field of view and being configured to capture an image. The imaging device has a variable exposure. A detector is operatively connected to the imaging device and configured to generate a trigger signal in response to activity within the field of view. A first processor is operatively connected to the detector and the imaging device, and a second processor is operatively connected to the detector and the imaging device. A computer-readable memory is operatively connected to the first processor and the secondary processor. The computer-readable memory is configured to store a map of ambient light levels in the field of view at selected times of day. The second processor varies the exposure of the imaging device in response to the trigger signal.
