Abstract
A communication system is configured to automatically adapt an image sequence in response to movement of a camera used to capture the image sequence. The adaptation includes a reduction in the data size of the image sequence and can occur in real-time as the image sequence is captured. The adaptation further includes restoration of the data size of the image in response to a reduction in movement of the camera. This approach allows for the communication of quality images shortly after movement of the has been reduced.
Claims19
A mobile video recording device comprising:
- a camera configured to record video;
- a motion sensor configured to detect movement of the video recording device;
- a wireless output including an antenna and configured to communicate the video;
- video transmission logic configured to reduce a data size of the video communicated via the wireless output, the reduction being in response to an output of the motion sensor and further in response to an identity of a destination of the video, wherein the destination is a customer relationship management system, the output of the motion sensor being indicative that the video recording device is being moved;
- and
- a microprocessor configured to execute at least the video transmission logic.
A customer communication system comprising:
- an input/output configured to communicate to a remote user device via a communication networks;
- an agent interface configured for a customer service agent to communicate to a remote user device via the input/output, the agent interface including a control configured to control video transmission logic on the remote user device, the video transmission logic being configured to reduce a data size of a sequence of images sent to the input/output, the reduction being in response to movement of the remote user device;
- and
- a microprocessor configured to execute at least the agent interface.
A method of communicating video, the method comprising:
- capturing a sequence of images using a camera;
- communicating the sequence of images to a remote destination via a wireless output;
- detecting an increased movement of the camera, using an output of a motion sensor, while communicating the sequence of images;
- reducing a data size of the sequence of images in response to the detected increased movement and proportional to the output of the motion sensor;
- detecting a reduced movement of the camera while communicating the sequence of images;
- and
- increasing the data size of the sequence of images in response to the detected decreased movement.
