Abstract
A surveillance apparatus continuously records imaged data from a camera into a circular buffer in a local memory. When a record signal is received, the system records the video stream that was recorded before the record signal was received, and the video stream that is recorded after the record signal was received. The recorded segment is then write-protected, so that the surveillance apparatus does not overwrite the recorded segment. The recorded segment could then be sent to a remote memory via a wireless connection to free up local memory for future recording sessions.
Claims18
A recording system comprising:
- a camera;
- and
- a processor programmed to:
- record image data received from the camera into a memory;
- in response to a first trigger signal, write-protect in the memory, a first portion of the image data corresponding to a length of time prior to the first trigger signal, wherein the first portion of the image data occupies a portion of the at least one memory that is less than the entirety of the at least one memory;
- and
- continue to record the image data into the memory while the first portion of the image data is being write-protected;
- in response to a second trigger signal, write-protect a second portion of the image data in the memory wherein the second portion occupies less than the remaining entirety of the memory not designated for write-protecting and corresponds to a length of time prior to the second trigger signal;
- and
- upon reaching at least one of the first portion and the second portion while continuing to record the image data in the memory, excluding from overwriting the at least one of the first portion and second portion.
