Abstract: A vehicle child safety seat alert system for alerting a caregiver if a child has been left behind in a vehicle. The vehicle child safety seat alert system includes a seat component configured to determine whether a child is sitting on the seat component, identify a Bluetooth signal from the target vehicle and use that signal to determine when the vehicle is turned off, and duplicate an RF signal that actuates the vehicle's sensory alarm system so as to be able to selectively actuate the vehicle's sensory alarm system. In use, with the seat component placed under a child's seat, whenever the vehicle has been turned off, if a child is still on top of the seat component, the seat component will wirelessly actuate the vehicle sensory alarm system after a predetermined period of time.

Abstract: A surveillance video system may include a surveillance image database storing a sequence of surveillance image files for a common area having image acquisition time metadata associated therewith, the sequence of surveillance image files defining an image acquisition rate. A processor may cooperate with the surveillance image database and may be configured to transcode the surveillance image files into a sequence of surveillance video frames retaining the image acquisition time metadata and at a video frame rate different from the image acquisition rate. The processor may also be configured to assemble a surveillance video transport stream from the sequence of surveillance video frames and retaining the image acquisition time metadata.

Abstract: A surveillance video system may include a surveillance image database storing a sequence of surveillance image files for a common area having geospatial metadata associated therewith. A processor may cooperate with the surveillance image database and configured to transcode the surveillance image files into a sequence of surveillance video frames retaining the geospatial metadata. The processor may also be configured to assemble a surveillance video transport stream from the sequence of surveillance video frames retaining the geospatial metadata, and to selectively deliver the surveillance video transport stream retaining the geospatial metadata to at least one surveillance video user.
