Abstract: An audio/video (A/V) device may include or accommodate a viewer through a barrier. For example, an A/V device may include a first component for installation on an exterior surface of a door, a second component for installation on an interior surface of the door, a viewer that extends through an opening in the door, and a flexible connector that electrically couples the first component and the second component. The A/V device may enable use of an existing hole in the door as part of a door viewer, while also providing the functionality of an A/V device. For example, the A/V device may be configured to receive an input using a button on the first component, generate image data using a camera on the first component, and send the image data to a network device.

Abstract: Video footage captured by A/V recording and communication devices may be readily uploaded to the cloud and shared with a requesting party, such as a law enforcement agency. When a request is received from a requesting party for video footage, a set of videos meeting the criteria specified by the requesting party may be determined. Consent requests may then be sent to users associated with each of the A/V recording and communication devices that recorded the videos meeting the criteria specified by the requesting party. When user consents to share the videos are received, the video footage may be provided to the requesting party.

Abstract: A method of improved use of available bandwidth involves capturing, by a camera of an audio/video (A/V) device, live video of a scene that includes a plurality of frames. A first frame of the plurality of frames is a first amount of data. The method also includes determining a data bandwidth between a computing device and the A/V recording and communication device. The method further involves determining that a first portion of the first frame includes a first object, such as a human face, wherein the first frame includes a second portion that does not include the first portion. Additionally, the method involves modifying the first frame to reduce at least a quality of the second portion, wherein the size of the data of the modified frame does not exceed the data bandwidth. The method also involves transmitting the modified frame to the computing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for augmenting and sharing data from audio/video (A/V) recording and communication devices are provided. In one embodiment, a method may include receiving, from an A/V recording and communication device, image data representing an image, analyzing the image data to determine one or more objects depicted by the image data, based on the analyzing the image data, determining at least one comment associated with the one or more objects; transmitting, to a first client device associated with the A/V recording and communication device, the image data representing the image and the at least one comment, receiving, from the first client device, consent for sharing the image data with a geographic area network, the consent indicating a selection of a comment from the at least one comment, and transmitting, to a second client device, the image data representing the image and the comment.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide for receiving image data representative of a field of view of a camera of an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device during a period time and sensor data generated by a sensor or a hub device at a time. A time-based association between the A/V recording and communication device and the sensor may be determined. Based at least in part on the time and the period of time, it may be determined that the time is within the period of time and that the time being within the period of time satisfies the time-based association. The image data and the sensor data may be correlated to create updated data, and the updated data may be included within a generated message. The message may then be transmitted to a client device associated with the A/V recording and communication device.
