  • Patent number: 11425653
    Abstract: A recording device captures information and stores the information in a data store as a data record. The recording device includes a low-power wireless interface and a high-power wireless interface. A network device includes a low-power wireless interface and a high-power wireless interface. An activation device transmits a data notification and a network notification. Upon receiving the data notification, the network device activates its high-power wireless interface. Upon receiving the network notification, the recording device activates its high-power wireless interface. The recording device transmits the data record to the network device via its high-power wireless interface.

  • Publication number: 20200293791
    Abstract: An evidence ecosystem that includes a capture system that detects physical properties in the environment around the capture system and captures data related to the physical properties. The capture system analyzes the captured data in accordance with patterns to detect characteristics and patterns in the captured data. Upon detecting a characteristic or a pattern, the capture system records the identified data and alignment data that identifies the location of the identified data in the captured data. The capture system sends the captured data, identified data, and alignment data to an evidence management system for use in generating reports and producing redacted copies of the captured data for distribution or presentation.

  • Patent number: 10237822
    Abstract: In some embodiments, automatic selective enablement of a wireless interface is provided. In some embodiments, a first device such as a recording device broadcasts a notification via a first wireless interface. The notification may be received by a second device such as a network device, which activates a second wireless interface in response. In some embodiments, the second device may transmit a notification via the first wireless interface to indicate that the second wireless interface has been activated. In response to receiving such a notification, the first device may activate its own second wireless interface in order to complete the connection and transmit a data record to the second device. In some embodiments, the first wireless interface is a low-power wireless interface, and the second wireless interface is a high-power wireless interface.
