Abstract

A system and a method for preserving intrusion event/s captured by camera/s. A method includes determining a first event and switching a camera from a first mode to a second mode based on the first event. The method further includes detecting a second event and capturing the second event based on the detection. The method also includes transmitting a copy of the captured second event to one or more devices.

Claims (33)

1. A system comprising:

a camera adapted to operate in a first mode having a connection with a router;

a determination unit adapted to determine disconnection of the camera with the router;

the camera adapted to switch from the first mode to a second mode based on disconnection of the camera with the router, in the second mode the camera having a connection with one or more devices, the camera further comprising:

a detection unit adapted to detect a second event when the camera is operating in the second mode, wherein the second event corresponds to an intrusion event by an intruder;

a recording unit adapted to capture the second event based on the detection by the detection unit; and

a communication unit adapted to transmit a copy of the captured second event to the one or more devices; and

the one or more devices adapted to receive the copy of the captured second event from the camera.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the camera is connected to the router through a cellular network or a WiFi network in the first mode.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the camera detects the second event when the camera receives a signal from one or more sensors.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the camera, the one or more devices and the one or more sensors are installed inside a premises.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the camera and the one or more devices are connected via a cellular connection or a WiFi connection.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more devices corresponds to a user device, a smoke detector or a fire detector.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more devices transmit the copy of the captured second event to a cloud.

8. A method comprising:

operating a camera in a first mode having a connection with a router;

determining a disconnection of the camera with the router;

switching a camera from the first mode to a second mode based disconnection of the camera with the router, in the second mode the camera having a connection with one or more devices;

detecting a second event when the camera is operating in the second mode, wherein the second event corresponds to an intrusion event by an intruder;

capturing the second event based on the detecting; and

transmitting a copy of the captured second event to the one or more devices.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the camera is connected to the router through a cellular network or a WiFi network in the first mode.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the camera detects the second event when the camera receives a signal from one or more sensors.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the camera, the one or more devices and the one or more sensors are installed inside a premises.

12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the one or more devices corresponds to a user device, a smoke detector or a fire detector.

13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the one or more devices transmit the copy of the captured second event to a cloud.

14. A computer readable medium comprising one or more processors and a memory coupled to the one or more processors, the memory storing instructions executed by the one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to execute operations comprising:

operating a camera in a first mode having a connection with a router;

determining disconnection of the camera with the router;

switching the camera from the first mode to a second mode based on disconnection of the camera with the router, in the second mode the camera having a connection with one or more devices;

detecting a second event when the camera is operating in the second mode, wherein the second event corresponds to an intrusion event by an intruder;

capturing the second event based on the detecting; and

transmitting a copy of the captured second event to the one or more devices.
