Abstract

The present disclosure describes systems and methods for processing security sensor data that enhances the ability of a user to quickly and efficiently review portions of the sensor data streams.

Claims

1. A method for processing data, the method comprising the steps of:

(a) recording a set of data, the set of data including a plurality of data streams;

(b) receiving a first instruction to transmit the plurality of data streams to an authorized user'"'"'s viewing device, wherein the plurality of data streams includes a first data stream at a first resolution;

(c) determining a format size for the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device;

(d) transmitting the plurality of data streams to the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device in a first format compatible with the determined format size;

(e) receiving a second instruction to transmit a subset of the plurality of data streams to the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device, the subset including the first data stream at a second resolution, wherein the second resolution is a higher resolution than the first resolution;

(f) transmitting the subset of the plurality of data streams to the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device in the first format.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of data streams are each from a same sensor.

3. The method of claim 2 wherein each of the data streams of the plurality of data streams is of a different data type, wherein the data type is selected from the group consisting of:

video data, audio data, infrared data, proximity sensor data, ingress and/or egress sensor data, trigger event data, and combinations thereof.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of data streams are each from a separate sensor.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of data streams are from at least one sensor gathering data from a specific location.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the first instruction includes a time frame TF1 and wherein the plurality of data streams transmitted to the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device includes data only for TF1.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein one of the data streams in the plurality of data streams includes data being recorded live.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein a first data stream and a second data stream of the plurality of data streams are different from each other and each of the first and second data streams is selected from the group consisting of:

video data, audio data, infrared data, proximity sensor data, ingress and/or egress sensor data, trigger event data, and combinations thereof.

9. The method of claim 1 wherein the set of data comprises a first portion of data associated with a time frame TF1 and a second portion of data associated with a time frame TF2, wherein at least a portion of TF2 overlaps TF1 in time.

10. The method of claim 9 wherein the second portion of data is associated with a trigger event.

11. A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon a plurality of executable instructions, the plurality of instructions comprising instructions to:

(a) record a set of data, the set of data including a plurality of data streams;

(b) receive a first instruction to transmit the plurality of data streams to an authorized user'"'"'s viewing device, wherein the plurality of data streams includes a first data stream at a first resolution;

(c) determine a format size for the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device;

(d) transmit the plurality of data streams to the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device in a first format compatible with the determined format size;

(e) receive a second instruction to transmit a subset of the plurality of data streams to the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device, the subset including the first data stream at a second resolution, wherein the second resolution is a higher resolution than the first resolution; and

(f) transmit the subset of the plurality of data streams to the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device in the first format.

12. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the plurality of data streams are each from a same sensor.

13. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 12 wherein each of the data streams of the plurality of data streams is of a different data type, wherein the data type is selected from the group consisting of:

video data, audio data, infrared data, proximity sensor data, ingress and/or egress sensor data, trigger event data, and combinations thereof.

14. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the plurality of data streams are each from a separate sensor.

15. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the plurality of data streams are from at least one sensor gathering data from a specific location.

16. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the first instruction includes a time frame TF1 and wherein the plurality of data streams transmitted to the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device includes data only for TF1.

17. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 11, wherein one of the data streams in the plurality of data streams includes data being recorded live.

18. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 11 wherein a first data stream and a second data stream of the plurality of data streams are different from each other and each of the first and second data streams is selected from the group consisting of:

video data, audio data, infrared data, proximity sensor data, ingress and/or egress sensor data, trigger event data, and combinations thereof.

19. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 11 wherein the set of data comprises a first portion of data associated with a time frame TF1 and a second portion of data associated with a time frame TF2, wherein at least a portion of TF2 overlaps TF1 in time.

20. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 19 wherein the second portion of data is associated with a trigger event.

21. A system for processing data, comprising:

a recording device for recording a set of data, the set of data including a plurality of data streams; and

a processor for;

receiving a first instruction to transmit the plurality of data streams to an authorized user'"'"'s viewing device, wherein the plurality of data streams includes a first data stream at a first resolution;

determining a format size for the authorized user'"'"'s viewing device;
