Patent number: 11922689Abstract: A process of augmenting images of incident scenes with object descriptions retrieved from an audio stream. In operation, an electronic computing device detects an object of interest in an image captured corresponding to an incident scene and identifies an audio stream linked to an incident identifier of an incident that occurred at the incident scene. The electronic computing device then determines whether the audio stream contains an audio description of the detected object of interest. When it is determined that the audio stream contains the audio description of the detected object of interest, the electronic computing device generates a visual or audio prompt corresponding to the audio description of the detected object of interest and plays back the visual or audio prompt via a corresponding display or audio-output component communicatively coupled to the electronic computing device.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS, INC.Inventors: Chong Hin Chee, Wei Lun Chan, Vincent Van Der Walt, Stuart James Boutell

Publication number: 20230144444Abstract: In accordance with one or more embodiments, aspects of the disclosure may provide efficient, effective, and convenient ways of managing network devices. In particular, a client router may connect to an upstream virtual gateway. The virtual gateway may manage a large number of client devices. Each client router may be represented virtually within the gateway as a virtual router. The virtual gateways may be distributed regionally, in order to manage large numbers of client routers and/or to reduce transmission delays. The virtual gateways may be managed by a gateway controller. The gateway controller may be centralized, and perform various configuration functions, such as configurations for hardware, logical networking, or content access policies. In some instances, messages sent between the gateway controller using a first protocol and the client router using a second protocol may be translated by a protocol agent.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2022Publication date: May 11, 2023Inventors: Mani Ramasubramani, Andrea Peiro, Jeffrey Barberio, Kris Bransom, Michael Chen, Weston Schmidt, James Chan, John Robinson
