First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a video input interface to receive first and second video data from first and second cameras, respectively, distributed over a monitored area;
memory storing computing instructions; and
one or more processors configured to execute the computing instructions to provide;
a video tracking interface that includes first and second user controls corresponding to the first and second cameras,the video tracking interface including a main video display to present the first video data from the first camera in response to selection of the first user control, the first and second user controls positioned around the video display, andin response to a cursor being moved over the second user control, the video tracking interface to present the second video data from the second camera in addition to the first video data.

Abstract
A video tracking system includes a user interface configured to facilitate tracking of a target between video cameras. The user interface includes user controls configured to assist a user in selecting video cameras as the target moves between fields of view of the video cameras. These user controls are automatically associated with specific cameras based on a camera topology relative to a point of view of a camera whose video data is currently being viewed. The video tracking system further includes systems and methods of synchronizing video data generated using the video cameras and of automatically generating a stitched video sequence based on the user selection of video cameras. The target may be tracked in real-time or in previously recorded video and may be track forward or backwards in time.

14. A system comprising:
-
a video input interface to receive first and second video data from first and second cameras distributed over a monitored area; a data storage configured to store a video sequence that includes at least one of the first and second video data; memory storing computing instructions; and one or more processors configured to execute the computing instructions to provide; a video tracking interface that includes first and second user controls corresponding to the first and second cameras, the video tracking interface including a main video display to present the first video data from the first camera in response to selection of the first user control, the first and second user controls positioned around the main video display, the video tracking interface presenting a timeline that corresponds to the video sequence, and the video tracking interface presenting a set of sequence thumbnails that are indexed to points along the timeline. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
