Abstract: A cloud video system selectively uploads a high-resolution video and instructs one or more client devices to perform distributed processing on the high-resolution video. A client device registers high-resolution videos accessed by the client device from a camera communicatively coupled to the client device. A portion of interest within a low-resolution video transcoded from the high-resolution video is selected. A task list is generated specifying the selected portion of the high-resolution video and at least one task to perform on the portion of the high-resolution video. Commands are transmitted to prompt the client device to perform the at least one task on the specified portion of the high-resolution video according to the task list. The specified portion of the high-resolution video is modified according to the task list and uploaded to the cloud. Example tasks include transcoding, applying edits, extracting metadata, and generating highlight tags.

Abstract: A camera detects devices, such as other cameras, smart devices, and access points, with which the camera may communicate. The camera may alternate between operating as a wireless station and a wireless access point. The camera may connect to and receive credentials from a device for another device to which it is not connected. In one embodiment, the camera is configured to operate as a wireless access point, and is configured to receive credentials from a smart device operating as a wireless station. The camera may then transfer the credentials to additional cameras, each configured to operate as wireless stations. The camera and additional cameras may connect to a smart device directly or indirectly (for instance, through an access point), and the smart device may change the camera mode of the cameras. The initial modes of the cameras may be preserved and restored by the smart device upon disconnection.
