Abstract
The present disclosure aims to allow users such as Health Care Personnel, nurses or more generally speaking video surveillance operators to blur video surveillance data and/or attach content such as comments or notes to video surveillance data at a client-level.
Claims9
A method of video surveillance comprising the steps of:
- causing an instance of a video management system client application software to display live video data received from at least one server, the live video data being generated by a plurality of video surveillance cameras;
- causing live video data from at least one of the video cameras to be blurred in that instance of the software upon receipt of, in that instance of the software, a blurring instruction sent from that instance of the software by a user and associated with the at least one of the video cameras and/or the video data of the at least one of the video cameras, wherein blurring is defined in and achieved by that instance of the software acting upon receipt of the blurring instruction;
- causing the instance of the software to automatically revert to displaying non-blurred live video data from the at least one of the video cameras when a predetermined time period has expired;
- and
- setting or changing the predetermined time period,
- wherein the step of setting or changing the predetermined time period requires permission rights that are different from those required to send the blurring instruction.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a computer-implemented method of video surveillance comprising the steps of:
- causing an instance of a video management system client application software to display live video data received from at least one server, the live video data being generated by a plurality of video surveillance cameras;
- causing live video data from at least one of the video cameras to be blurred in that instance of the software upon receipt of, in that instance of the software, a blurring instruction sent from that instance of the software by a user and associated with the at least one of the video cameras and/or the video data of the at least one of the video cameras, wherein blurring is defined in and achieved by that instance of the software acting upon receipt of the blurring instruction;
- causing the instance of the software to automatically revert to displaying non-blurred live video data from the at least one of the video cameras when a predetermined time period has expired;
- and
- setting or changing the predetermined time period,
- wherein the step of setting or changing the predetermined time period requires permission rights that are different from those required to send the blurring instruction.
