  • Patent number: 11683579
    Abstract: A video gateway device at a worksite (or other location) is coupled to multiple cameras on a network, such as multiple cameras at a business site. The gateway device determines video stream capabilities of each camera and, based on the capabilities, determines whether any additional video steams need to be created for particular cameras. For example, for cameras that provide only a high-resolution video stream, the gateway will generate (e.g., via downsampling) a standard-resolution video stream for artificial intelligence (“AI”) analysis and a low-resolution video stream for viewing by a user. However, for cameras that provide both a high and standard-resolution video stream, the gateway device uses the camera-provided standard-resolution video stream for AI analysis, rather than generating a new video stream on the gateway device.

  • Patent number: 11522857
    Abstract: A video gateway device at a worksite (or other location) automatically locates cameras on the network, authenticates the gateway device with the cameras, and initiates streaming of a video stream (and/or other camera sensor data) from the cameras. For example, a worksite with existing cameras from multiple manufacturers, models, and/or capabilities may all be automatically registered with the video gateway devices through a series of automated communication and authentication attempts.

  • Publication number: 20180007336
    Abstract: Certain aspects relate to systems, methods, devices and non-transient computer readable medium for correlation based frame skipping of processing intensive image processing algorithms for image adjustments, such as automatic white balance (AWB) operations and automatic exposure correction (AEC) operations. In certain embodiments, if a scene is deemed stable based on determining a correlation between the statistics associated with a current and previous frames, certain steps for the purpose of performing processing intensive image processing algorithms, such as AWB operations and AEC operations, may be skipped.

  • Patent number: 9860507
    Abstract: Certain aspects relate to systems and techniques for dynamically configuring frame skip for AWB calculations. For example, if RGB gains are deemed to be stable across a number of frames, the frame skip value used for AWB calculations can be increased. Changing RGB gains are indicators of image changes such as a changing scene and/or changing illuminant, which can indicate a need for updated AWB calculations, and accordingly the frame skip value can be set to zero or a low number of frames.
