Abstract
A security device comprising a body having a first end and a second end, the first end being threadable into a light socket and the second end having a rotatable mount disposed thereon. The body may also include a light source disposed on the body of the security device and a slide connected to the rotatable mount, wherein the slide is configured to extend away from the mount. A camera with a lens may be disposed on a distal portion of the slide. The security device may further include a hood surrounding the lens of the camera and extending beyond the lens of the camera.
Claims21
A security device comprising:
- a body comprising a first end and a second end, the first end being threadable into a light socket and the second end having a rotatable mount disposed thereon, the rotatable mount rotatable about a vertical axis of the body;
- a light source disposed on the body of the security device;
- a slide coupled to the rotatable mount to extend away from the rotatable mount at an angle away from the vertical axis of the body;
- a camera with a lens disposed on a distal portion of the slide, wherein the distal portion of the slide rotates along an axis of rotation orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the slide;
- and
- a hood surrounding the lens of the camera and extending beyond the lens of the camera.
A security device comprising:
- a body comprising a first end and a second end, the first end being threadable into a light socket and the second end having a rotatable mount disposed thereon;
- a light source disposed on the body of the security device;
- a camera with a lens;
- a camera movement means for extending the camera away from the body and rotating the camera relative to the body;
- and
- a hood surrounding the lens of the camera and extending beyond the lens of the camera, wherein a distal end of the hood is configured to create suction between the hood and a transparent material of a light fixture.
A security system kit comprising:
- a light and camera system comprising:
- a body comprising a first end and a second end, the first end being threadable into a light socket and the second end having a rotatable mount disposed thereon;
- a light source disposed on the body of the light and camera system;
- a slide coupled to the rotatable mount to extend away from the rotatable mount;
- and
- a camera with a lens disposed on a distal portion of the slide and configured to be aimed toward glass of a light feature;
- and
