Patent Images
1. A video monitoring system comprising:
- a video camera capturing images and storing time-stamped images in memory at a varying adaptive storing rate, said rate being made dependent on images content changes and environmental sensor(s) data,a server or a cloud service, configured to receive resulting stored images, and configured to build a video sequence forming a summary of a predefined past period of time,one or more portable electronic device configured to display an activity time line of the predefined past period of time, together with a cursor in the activity time line, said cursor can be moved by a user'"'"'s finger drag, and an image of the video sequence corresponding to the current position of the cursor within the activity time line.
