Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus for monitoring and/or recording noise levels at a location under surveillance over a time period. The apparatus includes a unit for capturing visual data of the location under surveillance, a unit for capturing audio data at the location under surveillance, a noise level process for deriving noise level data at the location under surveillance, and a unit to couple the visual and audio data with the noise level data.
Claims21
An apparatus for monitoring and/or recording noise levels at a location under surveillance over a time period, comprising:
- means for capturing visual data of the location under surveillance;
- means for capturing audio data at the location under surveillance;
- noise level processing means for deriving noise level data at the location under surveillance;
- and
- means to couple the visual and audio data with the noise level data.
A portable apparatus containing or including a noise level data collection and/or processing system, comprising:
- means for capturing audio visual data of a location under surveillance;
- and
- means for deriving noise level data at the location under surveillance.
A method of monitoring and/or recording data relating to noise levels at a location under surveillance, the method including:
- capturing audio visual data of the location under surveillance;
- measuring noise level data at the location under surveillance;
- and
- processing or otherwise coupling the audio visual data with the noise level data so that the audio visual data can be portrayed at a later time together with the measured noise level data, wherein the audio visual data and the noise level data are synchronised.
