Patent number: 9247110Abstract: A system and method are provided for remotely monitoring images from an image capturing device. Image data from an image capturing component is received where image data represents images of a scene in a field of view of the image capturing component. The image data may be analyzed to determine that the scene has changed. A determination may be made that the scene has changed. In response to this determination being made, a communication may be transmitted to a designated device, recipient or network location. The communication may be informative that a scene change or event occurred. The communication may be in the form of a notification or an actual image or series of images of the scene after the change or event.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2014Date of Patent: January 26, 2016Assignee: Qualcomm Atheros, Inc.Inventors: Luc Julia, Makhlouf Serghine, Yohan Le Nerriec

Publication number: 20150371629Abstract: A method and system are provided for using the contents of voice files as a basis for enabling search and other selection operations for data items that are associated with those voice files. Voice files may be received having associations with other data items, such as images or records. A corresponding text file is generated for each of the one or more voice files using programmatic means, such as a speech-to-text application. Each text file is provided an association with a data item based on the association of the voice file that served as the basis of its creation. Each text file is then made available for the performance of search and selection operations that result in the identification of associated data items.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 29, 2012Publication date: December 24, 2015Inventors: Luc Julia, Alexandre Guion, Johan Le Nerriec, Rafael Cortina, Stephen Marth
