Abstract: A recording device captures information and stores the information in a data store as a data record. The recording device includes a low-power wireless interface and a high-power wireless interface. A network device includes a low-power wireless interface and a high-power wireless interface. An activation device transmits a data notification and a network notification. Upon receiving the data notification, the network device activates its high-power wireless interface. Upon receiving the network notification, the recording device activates its high-power wireless interface. The recording device transmits the data record to the network device via its high-power wireless interface.

Abstract: A recording device may record information continuously. Particular events which occur during recording may be of interest for review (e.g. audit, inspection). Events may be audited to ensure that the data gathered is not tampered with or corrupted and to provably establish an evidence chain of custody. Metadata may mark recorded data of an event, in whole or in part, for later review. Metadata may be identified as an audit tag which may identify particular occurrences during an event. An audit tag may be urgent or non-urgent. Notice of an urgent audit tag may be sent to a server prior to sending the recorded data associated with the audit tag. Recorded data may be cryptographically signed to protect the recorded data from tampering.
