Audio/video (A/V) recording and communication devices in network communication with additional cameras in accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure are provided. In one embodiment, an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device is provided comprising: a first camera configured to capture image data at a first resolution; a communication module; and a processing module operatively connected to the first camera and the communication module, wherein the processing module is in network communication with a backend server, the processing module comprising: a processor; and a camera application that configures the processor to: maintain the first camera in a low-power state; receive a power-up command signal from the backend server based on an output signal from a second camera; power up the first camera in response to the power-up command signal; and capture image data using the first camera in response to the power-up command signal.
1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of at least one server, cause the at least one server to:
receive, from a second camera, second image data recorded by the second camera;
determine that a location of the second camera is within a geographic boundary of a location of at least one audio/video recording and communication device (A/V device);
generate a power-up command signal based on determining that the location of the second camera is within the geographic boundary of the location of the at least one A/V device; and
transmit the power-up command signal to the at least one A/V device, wherein the power-up command signal includes at least one command for a first camera of the at least one A/V device to power up from a low-power state and record first image data.
2. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the geographic boundary is a perimeter defined by a user-defined radius extending from the location of the at least one A/V device.
3. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the geographic boundary is a perimeter defined by a predetermined radius extending from the location of the at least one A/V device.
4. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 1 further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one server to:
determine that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of a person of interest; and
transmit the power-up command signal to the at least one A/V device based on determining that the location associated with the second camera is within the geographic boundary of the location associated with the at least one A/V device and determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of the person of interest.
5. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 4 further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one server to determine that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of the person of interest by determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera is similar to data indicative of a person in at least one database.
6. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 5 , wherein the at least one database is a criminal registry.
7. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 1 further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one server to:
determine that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of an object of interest; and
transmit the power-up command signal to the at least one A/V device based on determining that the location of the second camera is within the geographic boundary of the location of the at least one A/V device and determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of the object of interest.
8. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 1 further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one server to transmit the second image data recorded using the second camera to a client device associated with the at least one A/V device.
9. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 1 further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one server to receive the first image data recorded using the first camera of the at least one A/V device.
10. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 9 further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one server to transmit the first image data recorded using the first camera of the at least one A/V device to a client device associated with the at least one A/V device.
11. A method for at least one server for network communication between at least one audio/video recording and communication device (A/V device) and a second camera, the method comprising:
receiving, from the second camera, second image data recorded by the second camera;
determining that a location of the at least one A/V device is within a geographic boundary of a location of the second camera; and
based on determining that the location of the at least one A/V device is within the geographic boundary of the location of the second camera, transmitting, to the at least one A/V device, a command for a first camera of the at least one A/V device to record first image data.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the geographic boundary is a perimeter defined by a user-defined radius extending from the location of the second camera.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the geographic boundary is a perimeter defined by a predetermined radius extending from the location of the second camera.
14. The method of claim 11 further comprising:
determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of a person of interest; and
transmitting the command to the at least one A/V device based on determining that the location of the at least one A/V device is within the geographic boundary of the location of the second camera and determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of the person of interest.
15. The method of claim 14 further comprising determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of the person of interest by determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera is similar to data indicative of a person in at least one database.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the at least one database is a criminal registry.
17. The method of claim 11 further comprising:
determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of an object of interest; and
transmitting the command to the at least one A/V device based on the determining that the location of the at least one A/V device is within the geographic boundary of the location of the second camera and determining that the second image data recorded by the second camera represents an image of the object of interest.
18. The method of claim 11 further comprising transmitting the second image data recorded using the second camera to a client device associated with the at least one A/V device.
19. The method of claim 11 further comprising receiving the first image data recorded using the first camera of the at least one A/V device.
20. The method of claim 19 further comprising transmitting the first image data recorded using the first camera of the at least one A/V device to a client device associated with the at least one A/V device.
