METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR ADAPTIVELY STREAMING VIDEO DATA BASED ON A TRIGGERING EVENT
First Claim
1. A method for displaying streaming video on a display device of a control unit associated with a surveillance module, the method comprising:
- buffering a video data stream captured by the surveillance module to obtain a buffered video data stream;
displaying a first segment of the buffered video data stream in a viewing area on the display device, the first segment corresponding to content captured at a first time;
receiving a notification signal, the notification signal being indicative of a triggering event; and
in response to the notification signal, displaying a second segment of the buffered video data stream in the viewing area, the second segment corresponding to content captured at a second time.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus are provided for displaying streaming video on a display device of a control unit associated with a surveillance module. A method comprises buffering a video data stream captured by the surveillance module to obtain a buffered video data stream and displaying a first segment of the buffered video data stream in a viewing area on the display device. The first segment corresponds to content captured at a first time. The method continues by receiving a notification signal from the unmanned vehicle that is indicative of a triggering event, and in response to the notification signal, displaying a second segment of the buffered video data stream in the viewing area.
