1. A wireless data acquisition and recording (DAR) system, comprising:
- acquisition circuitry including a video camera carried by an operator for capturing video events associated with the operator;
a data display and report submission (DD) device for receiving the video events captured by the acquisition circuitry, storing the captured video events as digital media files, authenticating that the digital media files were generated by the DAR system, attaching electronic reports to the stored digital media files for the different captured video events, displaying the electronic reports, requiring the operator to fill in entries in the electronic reports before allowing the associated digital media files to be transmitted from the DD device, and using the entries in the electronic reports to index associated digital data; and
a transceiver for automatically relaying the media files and electronic reports from the DD device to a base station.

Abstract
A wireless data acquisition and recording (DAR) system includes acquisition circuitry including a video camera and/or a microphone carried by an operator for capturing video and audio events viewed and/or heard by the operator. A wireless transmitter wirelessly transmits digital signals containing the video events captured by the video camera and the audio events detected by the microphone. A data display and report submission (DD) device receives the wirelessly transmitted digital data captured by the acquisition circuitry and stores the data as media files.

11. A method for recording and storing events, comprising:
-
capturing images of events with a camera located on an operator and converting the captured images into digital data; storing the digital data for the captured images as media files in a wireless portable storage device; authenticating that the digital data in the media files were generated by the camera; attaching electronic reports to the stored media files for the different captured images; displaying the electronic reports on the portable storage device; requiring the operator to fill in entries in the electronic reports before allowing the associated digital data to be transmitted to a central computer; transmitting the reports and the associated digital data to a central computer; and using the entries in the reports to index associated digital data in the central computer and in the portable storage device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method for recording and storing events, comprising:
-
capturing images of events with a camera located on an operator and converting the captured images into digital data; storing the digital data for the captured images as media files in a wireless portable storage device; authenticating that the digital data in the media files were generated by the camera; attaching electronic reports to the stored media files for the different captured images; attaching a time and date stamp to the media files identifying when the images were captured; and restricting access to controls for adjusting a timer that generates the time and date stamp. - View Dependent Claims (20)
