Problems solved by technology

[0004] Existing video surveillance systems do a poor job of indicating actionable videos of interest to reviewers
A reviewer can search, for example, by date and time, or for videos related to motion or alarm events, but the reviewer must play back the videos one search result at a time
This is a time-consuming process, therefore, reviewers are unlikely to review unless they already know that there is an issue that needs to be reviewed
[0005] While some analytics tools aim to filter scan results more efficiently, users are still forced to play back one video at a time

Embodiment Construction

[0022] A description of exemplary embodiments of the present invention follows.

[0023] The described embodiments provide a summary video recording (also referred to herein as a video summary or video highlight) that includes excerpts from a generally much longer video recording or video recordings (such as one or more One or more video segments (i.e. short video scenes) of real-time supervision video recording). The summary video recording is also based on criteria (also referred to herein as rules) provided by the user, ie, the person assigned to extract useful information from the video recording. Specific rules are described in detail in this article, but can include, for example:

[0024] (a) Is the video synopsis fixed or variable in duration?

[0025] (b) If fixed duration, what is the video summary duration?

[0026] (c) Which locations should be monitored?

[0027] (d) Which areas within specific locations should be monitored?

[0028] (e) What event, if detecte...

Abstract

The invention discloses a smart video digest system and method. According to the invention, a method of summarizing events in a video recording includes evaluating at least one video recording to identify event that violate at least one rule. The method further includes excerpting a fragment of the at least one video recording. The fragment contains a depiction of the event. The method also includes causing the fragment to be included in a summary video recording. The rules may relate to a threshold amount of motion in a physical space being recorded in the at least one received video recording, or a threshold duration of motion in a physical space being recorded in the at least one received video recording.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application is a continuation of and claims priority to US Application Serial No. 14 / 299,939 filed June 9, 2014. The entire contents of the aforementioned applications are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] Certain types of video recordings (eg, surveillance recordings associated with security systems) document the environment over long periods of time. Such video recordings may only include very few relevant events. Finding and presenting those relevant events can be a tedious process. [0004] Existing video surveillance systems do a poor job of indicating actionable videos of interest to reviewers. A reviewer can, for example, search by date and time or for videos related to motion or alarm events, but the reviewer must play back the videos one search result at a time. This is a time-consuming process, and therefore, it is impossible for reviewers to conduct a review unless they already know that ther...
