  • Patent number: 12216802
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating certified images and incident reports are disclosed. An image capture device can be used to capture an image and integrate metadata from camera sensors as well as other ancillary device sensors into the image. The image and its metadata can then be certified upon a check that the image and its metadata are authentic and unaltered. The image and its metadata can then be included in or as a part of an incident or other report describing an incident or event such as an accident or a crime. The image and/or incident report may be maintained at a cloud-based server for viewing, authorized editing, and subsequent distribution.

  • Patent number: 12212725
    Abstract: Methods and systems for secure media processing may be used to execute and certify a digital media asset by verifying that the digital media asset is authentic and has not been altered since capture. In some cases, these secure media processing techniques may be used in the mobile certification and execution application and a corresponding server system. The mobile application and the corresponding server system may automatically generate finalized documents upon receiving certified digital media and the corresponding metadata from the users. The digital media and other information from the users may be received while the user is in communication with other users. A biometric and artificial intelligent feature recognition system may be utilized to receive biometric data and verify identity. Data transferred to a secure server are accessible by various parties involved in the certification and execution process to provide transparency.

  • Patent number: 12106391
    Abstract: Global positioning system (GPS) receivers, along with a user device with a camera, can be used to determine an elevation of a point of interest on or within a structure. The user device and a first GPS receiver can be located somewhere outside the structure from which the structure is clearly visible. A second GPS receiver can be located on, within, or near the structure. The user device receives location data from both GPS receivers and calculates a distance between the two. The user device then takes a digital photograph in which structure is visible and notes the photo capture angle. The user device then calculates the elevation of the point of interest trigonometrically using the calculated GPS distance and the photo angle. The user device can then automatically insert this information into associated documentation and transmit the same.

  • Publication number: 20240267611
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for media capture and processing. In some examples, a media capture and processing system that includes a first camera receives information about a second camera. The system generates a device profile for the second camera based on the information about the second camera. The system captures a digital media asset using the first camera and using a digital media capture setting that is associated with the device profile and that simulates at least a first aspect of media capture using the second camera. The system processes the digital media asset using a digital media asset processing setting that is associated with the device profile to generate a processed digital media asset. The digital media asset processing setting simulates at least a second aspect of media capture using the second camera. The system outputs the processed digital media asset.

  • Patent number: 11831710
    Abstract: Copies of a distributed ledger with multiple blocks are stored on multiple computing devices and a secure server that stores a plurality of authenticated digital media asset. A first computing device with an authenticated digital media asset generates a new block to the distributed ledger, and each subsequent computing devices with modifications made to the digital media asset adds a new block identifying modification made to the digital media asset and appends a hash of at least a portion of a previous block of the distributed ledger.

  • Patent number: 11811629
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to apparatus and methods that collect sensed data and that may organize that data such that it can be accessed by user devices or that can be organized and analyzed according to rules, conventions, or policies. Data collected by sensors or devices may be transmitted to a computer or server that stores that data. That stored data may then be analyzed to identify trends, events, or a chain of related events. In certain instances, an analysis of sets of raw data may result in the generation of a report or may result in alerts being sent to particular user devices. These sets of collected data, generated reports, and alert information may be stored and synchronized at one or more computing devices as data sets associated with a group of user devices or with a group of sensing devices.

  • Publication number: 20230306674
    Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) may couple to a sensor payload device that includes cameras, radar, lidar, and/or other sensors. The UAV, coupled to the sensor payload device, may fly within the airspace of and/or around a property and capture images and/or sensor measurements of the property. The images and sensor measurements may be certified so that they may be verified as unaltered by viewers. A 3D representation of the property may be generated, and defects in the property may be detected by comparing the 3D representation to media depicting property defects. A report identifying the defects may be generated.

  • Publication number: 20230281344
    Abstract: A server system for digital media processing may receive two digital media assets and information associated with capture of the two digital media assets, such as metadata or sensor data from the respective times of capture of the two digital media assets. The server system verifies that the two digital media assets and associated information are unaltered, and that the second of the two digital media assets is captured after the first. The server system then generates a document that incorporates the two digital media assets, such as an insurance claim document.

  • Publication number: 20230186776
    Abstract: A base module may be used to receive and house one or more unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) via one or more cavities. The base module receives commands from a manager device and identifies a flight plan that allows a UAV to execute the received commands. The base module transfers the flight plan to the UAV and frees the UAV. Once the UAV returns, the base module once again receives it. The base module then receives sensor data from the UAV from one or more sensors onboard the UAV, and optionally receives additional information describing its flight and identifying success or failure of the flight plan. The base module transmits the sensor data and optionally the additional information to a storage medium locally or remotely accessible by the manager device.

  • Publication number: 20220408165
    Abstract: A server system receives a digital media asset captured by a media capture device along with a dataset associated with the digital media asset. The server system generates a modified digital media asset by overlaying or embedding a glyph that encodes information pointing to the network location of the information page onto the digital media asset. A requesting device scans the glyph from the modified digital media asset and decodes from the glyph the information pointing to the network location. The information includes a certification that the digital media and the dataset associated with the digital media asset are unaltered. The requesting device may transmit communications to the server system to indicate approval or disapproval of the digital media asset, or to edit the digital media asset. The server system receives the communication and may modify the information to reflect comments, approvals, disapprovals, or edits.
