  • Publication number: 20140118554
    Abstract: A system of a surveillance camera for identifying and incapacitating dangerous intruders is a standard video camera with an additional infrared camera and an electrical stun gun. A data processing module in the camera utilizes body detection and tracking software to scan images received from the camera for human bodies, and a threat detection sensor communicates with the data processing module in order to identify a specific human body in the images as a threat. Once a threat is identified, the camera continually repositions itself so that at any given moment, a remote control can trigger the deployment of the electrical stun gun to incapacitate the threat. The data processing module also scans the facial and retina characteristics of the threat and stores the information in an information storage module at the back of the camera.
