Abstract: A system and method may analyze an input video content to produce analysis results. An event captured in the input video content may be identified based on the analysis results. A start time and an end time of a segment of the input video content, the segment including the event, may be determined and, an output video content may be generated by including the segment in the output video content.

Abstract: A method and communications module for recommending in what manner or mode a sensor and communications module of a subject monitoring system should communicate. A determination is made as to whether or not more than a predetermined number of wireless channels have a noise level below a certain threshold. If a positive determination is made, a wireless communication mode is recommended. If a negative determination is made, a wireless communication mode is not recommended.

Abstract: The invention relates to a communication device (8) for wirelessly communicating with a sensor (4). The communication device (8) comprises a receiver for receiving signals, an amplifier for amplifying the received signals, a transmitter for transmitting signals, and a controller. The controller is operable in a first mode in which signal strength values are determined over time, which are indicative of a strength of an amplified received signal, and in a second mode in which signal transmission and reception are controlled based on the determined signal strength values. The determined signal strength values can be indicative of, for instance, a saturation of the amplifier caused by a transmission operation of another, neighboring communication device such that, by considering the determined signal strength values, the transmission carried out by the communication device (8) can be synchronized with the corresponding operation of the neighboring communication device. This can lead to reduced disturbances.
