Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- an application bank of content-analysis applications;
two or more video processing units having one or more of the content-analysis applications installed therein, each of the video processing units coupled to a respective video sensor and receives video data from the video sensor over Internet Protocol (IP); and
a control unit having installed therein a set of rules, the control unit coupled to the video processing units and to the application bank,wherein upon receiving a notification from one of the video processing units that one of the applications installed therein detects a first predefined condition based on content-analysis processing of at least a portion of the video data, the control unit automatically instructs the application bank to install in real-time, at least another one of the content-analysis applications into at least one of the processing units based on the set of rules.

14. A method comprising:
-
storing post-alert action rules in a control unit; delivering video data over Internet Protocol (IP) to two or more processing units having one or more content-analysis applications installed therein, wherein each of the video processing units receives the video data from a respective video sensor; detecting a first predefined condition based on content-analysis processing of at least a portion of a video data; sending a notification to the control unit that the predefined condition was detected; and automatically, instructing to install in real-time at least another content-analysis application into at least one of video processing units from an application bank external to the processing units based on at least one of the post-alert action rules. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
