Surveillance systems, methods, and apparatuses
View Patent ↗A system, method, or apparatus for surveillance. A system of surveillance devices that can be interconnected in a modular manner that allows for portability and deploy ability. The devices may include a trailer that can be secured at location by the removal of the trailer tongue, wherein the trailer includes various surveillance devices for monitoring. Similarly, the trailer may also have a toolbox (that may also be secured to a vehicle) that can be used for surveillance. The toolbox can include multiple surveillance devices, while keeping the devices secured within a housing or main body with a cooling device to allow for operability.
1 . A toolbox coupled to a vehicle comprising:
a bottom;
at least three sides, wherein each of the at least three sides are coupled with the bottom;
a removable top coupled to at least one of the at least three sides;
an energy storage system housed within the toolbox;
a computing device housed within the toolbox and coupled to the energy storage system;
at least one imaging system coupled to the computing device and the energy storage system; and
a cooling system coupled to the energy storage system within the toolbox.
2 . The toolbox of claim 1 , wherein the imaging system includes a licensing plate reader.
3 . The toolbox of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the at least three sides further comprises a surveillance aperture.
4 . The toolbox of claim 1 , wherein the energy storage system further comprises at least one battery and at least one circuit for voltage and current control.
5 . The toolbox of claim 1 , further comprising a solar panel attached to the removable top and coupled to the energy storage system.
6 . The toolbox of claim 1 , wherein the energy storage system is coupled to a vehicle power system.
7 . The toolbox of claim 1 , wherein the cooling system includes at least one fan.
8 . A surveillance toolbox coupled to a vehicle comprising:
a bottom;
at least three sides coupled to the bottom, and at least one of the at least three sides having a surveillance aperture through it;
a removable top coupled to at least one of the at least three sides; a computing device housed within the surveillance toolbox with coupled to an energy storage system; and
a surveillance system configured to access the surveillance aperture and being housed within the surveillance toolbox; and a cooling system coupled to the energy storage system within the surveillance toolbox.
9 . The surveillance toolbox of claim 8 , wherein the surveillance system further comprises an imaging system.
10 . The surveillance toolbox of claim 9 , wherein the imaging system further comprises a licensing plate reader.
11 . The surveillance toolbox of claim 8 , wherein the surveillance system further comprises a sensor system.
12 . The surveillance toolbox of claim 11 , wherein the sensor system includes at least one microphone.
13 . The surveillance toolbox of claim 11 , wherein the sensor system includes at least one environmental sensor.
14 . The surveillance toolbox of claim 8 , further comprising a solar panel attached to the removable top and coupled to the energy storage system.
15 . The surveillance toolbox of claim 8 , wherein the energy storage system is coupled to a vehicle power system.
16 . The surveillance toolbox of claim 8 , wherein the cooling system includes at least one fan.
17 . A surveillance system comprising:
an energy storage system;
a cooling system coupled to the energy storage system;
an imaging system coupled to the energy storage system;
a computing device coupled to the energy storage system and the imaging system; and
a housing to enclose the energy storage system, cooling system, the imaging system, and the computing device.
18 . The surveillance system of claim 17 , wherein the energy storage system further comprises at least one battery, at least one voltage and current control circuit, and at least one power source.
19 . The surveillance system of claim 17 , wherein the cooling system comprises at least one fan.
20 . The surveillance system of claim 17 , wherein the housing further comprises at least one aperture.
21 . A portable surveillance system comprising: a trailer; a portable mast coupled to a first side of the trailer; and a fuel powered portable generator opposite the portable mast when coupled to a second side of the trailer.
