Abstract
Disclosed are features related to a business intelligence assembly that is combined into a 3-in-1 configuration having security camera functions, visual indicator functions and 2-way voice functions being integrated together, which collectively operate as a Surveillance-Communications-Safety (SCS) hub or act as an active beacon, to cause surveillance operations being combined with communications and safety features that provide business intelligence information.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a plurality of security cameras that are networked together, each camera having related thereto:
- a hardware platform comprising a visual alerts module and an audible alerts module that operate in accordance with events at or near at least one of the networked security cameras;
- and
- a software platform comprising software modules that support the visual alerts module and the audible alerts module of the hardware platform,
- wherein a combination of the cameras, the hardware platform and the software platform cooperate to provide improved user awareness with respect to surveillance, communications and safety when compared to a system that lacks the combination.

An apparatus comprising:
- a housing;
- and
- a business intelligence assembly at the housing and being combined into a 3-in-1 configuration having security camera functions, visual indicator functions and 2-way voice functions being integrated together, which collectively operate as a Surveillance-Communications-Safety (SCS) hub to cause surveillance operations being combined with communications and safety features that provide business intelligence information,
- wherein the apparatus is configured to support a plurality of functionalities comprising light emitting diode (LED) band indicators, an audio interfacing and wireless connectivity, and the apparatus is structured to have a modular design that selectively accommodates the plurality of functionalities.
1 more element
A device comprising:
- an assembly configured as a modified security camera enclosure that is structured to transform a passive security camera installation into an active beacon that employs a visual alert interface providing visual alerts about events detected by a security camera with respect to surveillance, communications and safety, and assembly also employs at least two among:
- a 2-way voice interface that supports audible inputs and outputs related to the visual alerts,
- a boundary or height sensor that performs boundary or height detection for objects at a particular physical location near the security camera, and
- a wireless connectivity that provides wireless communication related to the events detected by the security camera.
