Abstract

Methods and systems provided. A system may include a mobile surveillance unit positioned within an environment and including one or more sensors configured to detect one or more events occurring within or near the environment. The system may also include an application program configured to: cause, responsive to a detected event, a first data set associated with the event and captured by a first sensor of the one or more sensors to be conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit; and cause, responsive to the detected event, a second, different data set associated with the event and captured by a second sensor of the one or more sensors to be conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit.

Claims (38)

1 . A system, comprising:

a mobile surveillance unit positioned within an environment and including a head unit having one or more sensors configured to detect one or more events occurring within or near the environment; and

an application program configured to:

cause, responsive to a detected event, a first data set comprising video data associated with the event and captured by a first sensor of the one or more sensors of the head unit to be conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit to a remote device via at least one metered connection;

cause, responsive to the detected event, a second, different data set comprising image data associated with the event and captured by a second sensor of the one or more sensors of the head unit to be conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit to the remote device via the at least one metered connection, such that the first data set and the second, different data set are conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit to the remote device via the at least one metered connection responsive to the detected event; and

cause, responsive to the detected event, third data different than the first data and the second, different data to be conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit to another remote device via the at least one metered connection.

2 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising a server configured to receive the first data set and the second, different data set.

3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more sensors comprise one or more cameras.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein a size of the first data set is greater than a size of the second, different data set.

5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein each of the first data set and the second, different data set are conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit via a cellular connection.

6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the mobile surveillance unit includes a storage device, wherein each of the first data set and the second, different data set are stored in the storage device.

7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein first data set and the second, different data set are conveyed to a user device.

8 . A method, comprising:

detecting an event via a first sensor of a mobile surveillance unit and a second, different sensor of the mobile surveillance unit, the mobile surveillance unit including a head unit including each of the first sensor and the second, different sensor;

responsive to the detected event, conveying, from the mobile surveillance unit to a remote device over at least one metered connection, a first data set comprising video data associated with the event and captured by the first sensor;

responsive to the detected event, conveying, from the mobile surveillance unit to the remote device over the at least one metered connection, a second, different data set comprising image data associated with the event and captured by the second, different sensor; and

responsive to the detected event, conveying, from the mobile surveillance unit to another remote device over the at least one metered connection, a third data set different than the first data set and the second, different data set.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein detecting the event via the first sensor and the second, different sensor comprises detecting the event with a first camera and a second camera.

10 . The method of claim 8 , wherein:

conveying the first data set to the remote device comprises conveying the first data set to at least one of a server or a user device; and

conveying the second, different data set to the remote device comprises conveying the second, different data to at least one of the server or the user device.

11 . A system, comprising:

a mobile unit comprising:

a first sensor at a sensor location and configured to sense an event and capture first data comprising video data associated with the event; and

a second sensor at the sensor location and configured to sense the event and capture second, different data comprising image data associated with the event;

the system configured to:

convey, responsive to the sensed event, the first data from the mobile unit to a remote device via at least one metered connection;

convey, responsive to the sensed event, the second, different data from the mobile unit to the remote device via the at least one metered connection; and

convey, responsive to the sensed event, third data different than the first data and the second, different data from the mobile unit to another remote device via the at least one metered connection.

12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the first sensor comprises a first camera and the second sensor comprises a second camera.

13 . The system of claim 11 , further comprising the remote device, the remote device including a cloud server or a user device.

14 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the first data set further comprises image data associated with the event, the second, different data comprises at least one of second video data or second image data associated with the event, or both.

15 . The method of claim 8 , wherein at least one of:

conveying the first data set comprises conveying the video data and image data associated with the event; or

conveying the second, different data set comprises conveying at least one of second image data or second video data associated with the event.

16 . The system of claim 11 , wherein at least one:

the first data set further comprises image data associated with the event; or

the second, different data further comprises at least one of second video data or second image data associated with the event.
