Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a video surveillance system and method for performing display-based video analytics on video streams provided by internet protocol (IP) cameras and/or a video management system (VMS) over an IP network. Display-based video analytics can perform video analytics on the video streams without a direct connection to the IP network. Because the display-based video analytics can perform video analytics on the video streams without being directly connected to the IP network, the display -based video analytics can be more readily implemented in video surveillance systems with secure IP networks.
Abstract:
Some embodiments include a broker policy manager (BPM) comprising a transceiver and a processor, where the processor is configured to dynamically change a policy associated with an Internet of Things (IoT) client certificate based on an incident invitational model. In some embodiments the processor can determine that a first IoT client is a participant of an incident communications network corresponding to an incident, and transmit first instructions to a certificate-based IoT broker to change a first IoT policy associated with a first certificate of the first IoT client, to enable the first IoT client to publish or subscribe to a topic that corresponds to the incident. The first instructions can indicate a change to a second IoT policy associated with a second certificate of a second IoT client that enables the second IoT client to publish or subscribe to the topic that corresponds to the incident.
Abstract:
Embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product that enable secure access to cameras (112i) in smart buildings. Some embodiments control outbound video from an environment such as a local network (110) through an intelligent on-event video pushing mechanism (114). The local intelligent on- event video pushing mechanism (114) hides the IP address of a source video camera (112i), transcodes the video to a reduced size for wide area distribution, and pushes video to a recipient (150 j) upon an event triggered received within the local environment (e.g., the local network (110)). Embodiments enable a remote video client (150j) on the far-side of the local network firewall (116) to view the video streams of cameras (112i) on the near-side of the local network firewall (116) when an event or trigger occurs.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for a dynamic symbol-based system for objects-of-interest (OOI) video analytics detection. Some embodiments include instantiating one or more symbolic objects associated with one or more real world rules, defining an area of interest, associating one or more CV functions with the one or more symbolic objects, and identifying one or more video sources for which to apply the one or more CV functions. Some embodiments further include executing the one or more CV functions associated with the one or more symbolic objects to process the one or more video sources.
Abstract:
Embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product for improving public safety communications and real-time information sharing to enable a public safety user to access available, secure private wireless communications (PWC) networks within a vicinity of an emergency for communications and data-sharing purposes. In an embodiment, a universal encryption key (UEK) is stored on a public safety access device. The public safety access device is providing access to a secure PWC network. The UEK is a key established by a certificate authority that enables public safety personnel to access the secure PWC network. Then, a public safety encryption key (PSKey) is received by the public safety access device from a user communication device. The public safety access device enables access for the user communication to access the secure PWC network upon a determination that the received PSKey is associated with the UEK.
Abstract:
Embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product for using a biosensor worn by a user to trigger an event and activate a camera worn by the user to begin streaming and/or recording video data. The biosensor trigger also initiates a real time multimedia collaboration session with the user wearing the biosensor and one or more designated parties. Through an interoperability gateway device, a voice communications device of the user is bridged with voice communications devices of the designated parties, and the video data is electronically transmitted to the designated parties. Thus, the designated parties may have real time voice communications among each other and with the user, and the designated parties may also view the video data in real time. Embodiments also determine when an event has ended and deactivates the camera worn by the user.

Abstract:
Embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product for providing seamless PTT services to a user. In an embodiment, a push-to-talk (PTT) component provides, to the user, PTT services with a talk group through a connectivity to a data channel in a mobile network. A voice monitoring component monitors attributes of data connectivity on the data channel to determine when a voice quality falls below a threshold. When the voice quality is determined to fall below the threshold, a connectivity component requests the user to switch the connectivity to a voice channel. Then, the connectivity component dials a telephone number through the voice channel to access a voice conference bridge that provides the PTT services. To provide the PTT services, the voice conference bridge sets up a routing path to a session initiation protocol session for the talk group, and routes voice communication through the SIP session.
Abstract:
Embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product that enable Push to Talk (PTT) communication within a video management software (VMS) system using embedded PTT controls. An embodiment operates by monitoring a plurality of video feeds using a VMS graphics user interface (GUI) where each video feed is a component of an interactive multimedia media object (IMMO) displayed in the VMS GUI. A talk group is logically associated with a video feed from the plurality of video feeds by coupling the talk group to an embedded PTT control component of the IMMO containing the video feed. Upon detecting that the embedded PTT control component corresponding to the video feed is activated, PTT communications is enabled between each member of the talk group regarding content displayed by the video feed.
Abstract:
Embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product for a mobile ad-hoc radio based linked extensible (MARBLE) unit that is a portable, self-contained mesh-capable radio transceiver unit capable of being deployed with other MARBLE units to form a local area ad hoc mesh network. Several MARBLE units may be distributed in the field by an operator (e.g., first responder) in the form of a ball, puck or other shaped enclosure that may be held by a human hand and thrown, tossed or placed in the field to deploy a local area ad hoc mesh network. The MARBLE units may exchange information among themselves to determine and select one MARBLE unit as a relay gateway to access an IP network for all of the MARBLE units coupled to the local area ad hoc mesh network.
