Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatuses utilize multiple, independent sensing devices to collaboratively gather sensing data. A server or one of the sensing devices receives information which is used to select a target, and the device commences gathering sensing data of a target. The server or the device then solicits other devices to provide additional perspectives of the target. The other devices can solicit still other devices, in a cascading or other fashion. The concurrent, multiple perspectives thus gathered are provided to a collector, and can be mosaicked or otherwise stitched together.

Abstract: Multiple sensors are automatically recruited and coordinated to chronicle a fleeting event in a collaborative manner across time and space. An event of interest is captured and recognized by a first data capturing device. An outcome is automatically predicted, and a second data capturing device likely to have visibility of the location during occurrence of the predicted outcome is recruited to provide surveillance data of the event of interest. Surveillance data from both the first and second and subsequent data capturing devices are automatically sent to an investigation facility.
