Abstract
An apparatus includes a network interface and a processing unit. The network interface receives a device registration request identifying an identity of a client device, an Internet address of the client device, and a physical location of the client device. The processing unit determines an identity of at least one sensor of the client device, at least in part based on the identity of the client device. The network interface transmits, to an Internet address of a server, the identity of the client device, the physical location of the client device, and the identity of the at least one sensor of the client device. The network interface receives data from the at least one sensor of the client device.
Claims17
A method implemented by a computing device, the method comprising:
- sending a registration request, the registration request indicating an identity of a first sensor of the computing device, an Internet address of the computing device, and a physical address of the computing device;
- receiving a recording request, the recording request identifying the first sensor;
- changing, with a motor, a position or an orientation of the first sensor, at least in part based on the recording request;
- receiving a control command to control the motor;
- receiving an override request identifying a server;
- ignoring the control command, at least in part based on the override request;
- and
- recording data with the first sensor to produce a recording, at least in part based on the recording request.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a first sensor;
- a network interface that sends a registration request and receives a recording request, the registration request indicating an identity of the first sensor, an Internet address of the apparatus, and a physical address of the apparatus, the recording request identifying the first sensor;
- and
- a motor that changes a position or an orientation of the first sensor, at least in part based on the recording request, wherein
- the network interface receives a control command to control the motor, the network interface further receives an override request identifying a server, and the apparatus ignores the control command, at least in part based on the override request, and
- the first sensor records data to produce a recording, at least in part based on the recording request.
A non-transitory, computer-readable medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by a processing unit of an apparatus, cause the apparatus to perform operations comprising:
- sending a registration request, the registration request indicating an identity of a first sensor of the apparatus, an Internet address of the apparatus, and a physical address of the apparatus;
- receiving a recording request, the recording request identifying the first sensor;
- changing, with a motor, a position or an orientation of the first sensor, at least in part based on the recording request;
- receiving a control command to control the motor;
- receiving an override request identifying a server;
- ignoring the control command, at least in part based on the override request;
- and
- recording data with the first sensor to produce a recording, at least in part based on the recording request.
