INVESTIGATION GENERATION IN AN OBSERVATION AND SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A system to generate real-time investigations of user behavior comprising:
- a video camera configured to capture video of user activity;
a video analytic module to perform real-time video processing of the captured video to generate non-video data from video; and
a computer configured to receive the video and the non-video data from the video camera, the computer including;
a video analytics module configured to analyze one of video and non-video data to identify occurrences of particular user behavior; and
an investigation generation module configured to generate an investigation containing at least one video sequence of the particular user behavior.

Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for generating investigations of user behavior. In an example embodiment, the system includes a video camera configured to capture video of user activity, a video analytic module to perform real-time video processing of the captured video to generate non-video data from video, and a computer configured to receive the video and the non-video data from the video camera. The computer includes a video analytics module configured to analyze one of video and non-video data to identify occurrences of particular user behavior, and an investigation generation module configured to generate an investigation containing at least one video sequence of the particular user behavior. In some embodiments, the investigation is generated in near real time. The particular user behavior may be defined as an action, an inaction, a movement, a plurality of event occurrences, a temporal event and/or an externally-generated event.

21. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising software for monitoring user behavior, which software, when executed by a computer system, causes the computer system to perform operations comprising a method of:
-
receiving non-video data from a camera wherein the non-video data includes user behavioral information data, identifying a particular user behavior; identifying an occurrence of the particular user behavior within the non-video data; identifying video of the identified occurance of the particular user behavior; and generating an investigation related to the identified occurrence of the particular user behavior, the investigation including the identified video. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25)
