SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING VIDEO ANALYTICS RESULTS
First Claim
1. A video analytics system, comprising:
- a video camera for capturing video data and for providing a data signal comprising the captured video data, the video camera associated with a user;
at least one cloud-based processor that is in communication with the video camera via a communication network, the at least one cloud-based processor for receiving the data signal from the video camera via the communication network and having in execution thereon a video analytics process for processing the captured video data according to a predetermined processing criterion;
a video-display device disposed at a location that is remote from the video camera;
an electronic communication device in communication with the at least one cloud-based processor, the electronic communication device associated with the user and comprising a display portion and a communication circuit, the communication circuit for receiving an alert signal from the at least one cloud-based processor in dependence upon the video analytics process detecting an actionable event within the captured video data; and
a user interface provided via the display portion of the electronic communication device, the user interface configured for sending a control signal from the communication circuit of the electronic communication device in response to receiving a user input, the control signal for providing captured video data from the video camera to the video-display device, the video-display device other than the display portion of the electronic communication device.

Abstract
Video data relating to a field of view is captured by a video camera. The captured video data is provided to a cloud-based processor via a communication network and is processed. thereon according to a video analytics process to detect an actionable event within the captured video data and, in response to a detected actionable event, an alert signal relating is transmitted to an electronic communication device that is associated with a user. Based on the alert signal an alert message is displayed via a display portion of the electronic communication device and a user interface is provided in association with the displaying of the alert message supporting selection by the user of a video-display device. A user input indicative of selection of the video display device is received via the user interface. The captured video data is then displayed in the human intelligible form on the video display device.
