Shared scalable server to control confidential sensory event traffic among recordation terminals, analysis engines, and a storage farm coupled via a non-proprietary communication channel
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprisingat least one sensory stream server coupled to both a command server and to a storage server, a sensory stream server comprising:
- a switchboard circuit, andan asset storer circuit,wherein the asset storer circuit is a processor adapted by software instructions to receive assets and references over a communication channel as determined by a point of recordation terminal (PORT) andwherein the switchboard circuit couples all PORTs and all servers enabling a transfer of commands or status between any PORT—
server pair.

Abstract
A highly secure sensory stream event server receiving and storing encrypted assets and references to those assets over a non-proprietary communications channel. A system for selectively decrypting and transmitting references to analysis clients such as authenticated mutually unconscious users, and retrieving, decrypting and transmitting certain assets from high-volume storage, distributed storage, or in transit. A method for controlling a plurality of sensory stream event recordation clients and a plurality of analysis clients transmitting policies and commands requesting upload of assets and obtaining status solely by receiving client initiated sessions.
