Integrated Video Camera Module
First Claim
1. A camera module, comprising:
- a camera portion configured to capture video data;
a wireless antenna;
a wireless transceiver coupled to the wireless antenna and configured to communicate in a local wireless network, the wireless transceiver being configured to communicate the video data captured by the camera portion to a client device via a remote server, the client device being remote from the camera module, the remote server being remote from the camera module and the client device; and
one or more infrared light emitting diodes (IR LEDs) configured to illuminate a field of view with infrared light in accordance with a determination that ambient light is low.

Abstract
This application discloses a camera module that incorporates a camera portion, a wireless antenna, a wireless transceiver and one or more infrared light emitting diodes (IR LEDs). The camera portion is configured to capture video data. The wireless transceiver is coupled to the wireless antenna and configured to communicate in a local wireless network. The wireless transceiver is configured to communicate the video data captured by the camera portion to a client device via a remote server. The client device is remote from the camera module, and the remote server is remote from the camera module and the client device. The IR LEDs are configured to illuminate a field of view with infrared light. In some implementations, the wireless transceiver is further configured to communicate the video data captured by the camera portion while the one or more IR LEDs illuminate the field of view with infrared light.
