Abstract: The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for displaying event indicators on an event timeline. In one aspect, a method includes: displaying a video monitoring user interface including: video information corresponding to a video stream of remote camera's field of view in a first region, and the event timeline in a second region; obtaining identification of a new zone of interest corresponding to a portion of the camera's field of view; sending information indicative of the new zone of interest to a server system; obtaining identification of one or more past motion events detected by the remote camera involving the new zone of interest; and updating display of the event timeline to display an event indicator having a visual characteristic corresponding to the new zone of interest for each of the one or more past motion events.

Abstract: The various implementations described herein include methods, devices, and systems for detecting motion and persons. In one aspect, a method is performed at a smart home system that includes a video camera, a server system, and a client device. The video camera captures video and audio, and wirelessly communicates, via the server system, the captured data to the client device. The server system: (1) receives and stores the captured data from the video camera; (2) determines whether an event has occurred, including detected motion; (3) in accordance with a determination that the event has occurred, identifies video and audio corresponding to the event; and (4) classifies the event. The client device receives information indicative of the identified events, displays a user interface for reviewing the video and audio stored by the remote server system, and displays the at least one classification for the event.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a method for presenting video information. The method includes: (1) receiving user identification of a first spatial zone corresponding to a first portion of the field of view of a remote camera; (2) displaying a first outline in a first color for the first spatial zone overlaid on a visual image; (3) receiving second user identification of a second spatial zone corresponding to a second portion of the field of view of the remote camera; (4) displaying a second outline in a second color for the second spatial zone overlaid on the visual image; and (5) displaying a visual indicator indicating that motion was detected in at least one spatial zone, the visual indicator having a color corresponding to the spatial zone in which the motion was detected.

Abstract: An electronic device with a display, processor(s), and memory displays a video monitoring user interface. The interface includes a video window displaying video feed from a camera located remotely from the device. A subset of the video includes a first motion event associated with an event category and a second motion event not associated with the event category. The device detects a user request for video playback. In response to the request, the device identifies a segment of the video for playback. The segment includes a first portion associated with the first motion event and a second portion associated with the second motion event. The device causes generation of a time-lapse video clip of the segment of the video for playback, including configuring the first portion to play at a different speed from the second portion. The device displays and plays the video clip of the segment.

Abstract: An electronic device with a display, processor(s), and memory displays a video monitoring user interface including a video feed from a camera located remotely from the client device in a first region and an event timeline in a second region, the event timeline including event indicators for motion events previously detected by the camera. The electronic device detects a user input selecting a portion of the event timeline, where the selected portion of the event timeline includes a subset of the event indicators. In response to the user input, the electronic device causes generation of a time-lapse video clip of the selected portion of the event timeline. The electronic device displays the time-lapse video clip, where motion events corresponding to the subset of the event indicators are played at a slower speed than the remainder of the selected portion of the event timeline.

Abstract: A computing system device with processor(s) and memory displays a video monitoring user interface on the display. The video monitoring user interface includes a first region for displaying a live video feed and/or a recorded video feed from the video camera and a second region for displaying an event timeline. The event timeline includes a plurality of time indicators each indicating a specific time and a current video feed indicator indicating the temporal position of the video feed displayed in the first region. The temporal position includes a past time and a current time. The current video feed indicator is movable relative to the time indicators to facilitate a change in the temporal position of the video feed displayed in the first region.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a system for processing motion events. The system obtains a video stream from a camera, the video stream corresponding to a field of view of the camera and obtains identification of a spatial zone, the spatial zone corresponding to at least a portion of the field of view of the camera. For each motion event detected in the video stream: (1) the system determines whether the motion event involves the spatial zone; and (2), in accordance with a determination that the motion event involves the spatial zone, the system suppresses a first user notification for the motion event.
