Methods and apparatus for providing fault tolerance in a surveillance system

A coordinated surveillance system uses a larger number of fixed low resolution detection smart camera devices and a smaller number of pan / tilt / zoom controllable high resolution tracking smart camera devices. The set of detection cameras provide overall continuous coverage of the surveillance region, while the tracking cameras provide localized high resolution on demand. Each monitor camera device performs initial detection and determines approximate GPS location of a moving target in its field of view. A control system coordinates detection and tracking camera operation. A selected tracking camera is controlled to focus in on, confirm detection, and track a target. Based on a verified detection, a guard station is alerted and compressed camera video is forwarded to the guard station from the camera(s). The guard station can direct a patrol guard to the target using GPS coordinates and a site map. Redundancy is provided by using multiple control units, each able to handle the full load in the event of failure. Camera devices vote on the status of the control units. A failed detection camera device can be temporarily replaced by a tracking camera device in a back-up mode of operation thus maintaining full overall basic coverage of the surveillance region.

Insulated beverage container

The insulated beverage container is a container, such as a coffee cup, providing thermal insulation for the user's hand. The container includes a vertically extending annular wall and a base, forming a beverage-receiving cup. A plurality of tubes are secured to an outer surface of the annular wall. Each tube is hollow and defines an air passage therein, and is further elongated along the vertical direction, having upper and lower air flow apertures formed therethrough. In use, heat generated by the beverage heats the air contained within the tubes. As the air rises within the tubes, ambient air at a lower temperature is drawn through the lower air flow apertures and the heated air is expelled through the upper air flow apertures, maintaining a flow of cooled air from the environment through the tubes.

Computer with acoustic driver built into acoustically leaky chassis

A desktop computer which has a driver mounted in the back wall of the chassis. The chassis is acoustically a very leaky box, so the driver is designed as if it were a free-space driver (using large cone area and long throw). In one class of embodiments, a single driver is used, and is centered in the back of the box so that there is an equal left-right split, although not true stereo. The front of the box may be made more acoustically leaky to move the acoustic image forward. The treatment of the box as being acoustically leaky means that the airflow required for thermal management has not been restricted. The use of a long-throw driver permits the volume-velocity of the driver to be increased. Treatment of the box as very leaky also means that no user changes or custom configurations will significantly disturb the expected acoustic environment. An audio system incorporating a free-space driver with an equalizer designed for use with a free-space driver further improves acoustic quality. Gain staging may also be used to improve acoustic quality of the audio system.
