Publication number: 20250036702Abstract: System and methods for aligning event data recorded by recording devices. Recording devices create, transmit, and store alignment data. Alignment data created by a recording device is stored in the memory of the recording device with a time that is maintained by the recording device and that is relative to the time of event data recorded by the recording device that creates the alignment data. Recording devices further receive and store transmitted alignment data. Alignment data received by a recording device is stored in the memory of the recording device with a time that is maintained by the receiving recording device and that is relative to the time of event data recorded by the recording device that creates alignment data.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Inventors: James Norton REITZ, Raymond T. FORTNA, Nathan A. GRUBB, Michael J. BOHLANDER, Tyler J. CONANT, Tamas A. WEISZ, Zachary S. EMMEL, Trevin CHOW, Melissa S. KERSH, Jacob D. HERSHFIELD, Patrick W. Smith, Abraham ALVAREZ ZAYAS

Publication number: 20200293791Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2020Publication date: September 17, 2020Inventors: Marcus William Lee WOMACK, James Norton REITZ, Nache D. SHEKARRI, Daniel J. WAGNER, Mark A. HANCHETT

Patent number: 10237822Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2016Date of Patent: March 19, 2019Assignee: AXON ENTERPRISE, INC.Inventors: Mark A. Hanchett, Anthony G. Huang, Tyler J. Conant, Marcus William Lee Womack, Nache D. Shekarri, James Norton Reitz
