20080299946 | MOBILE BASED IDENTIFICATION IN SECURITY AND ASSET MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS - This invention relates to using consumer devices, such as mobile telephones, to identify, authenticate, locate and contact users of security and asset management systems. Such consumer devices can be used not only with the security systems but also for other uses. A device is initially registered with the security system. As needed, the device is presented to the system for authentication, enabling a person access to a secure area. In addition, the system can determine the person's location in the secure area and can send information messages to the person as well as notifying the person in case of emergency. | 12-04-2008 |
20080309672 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DIGITAL VIDEO SCAN USING 3-D GEOMETRY - A system and method for providing digital video scan using 3-D geometry. The digital video scan system includes a 3-D scan scene maker for generating a plurality of video display units for displaying digital video data; a plurality of video producing devices producing a plurality of video feeds; a video scan sequencer receiving and organizing the plurality of video feeds into a predetermined order; a video rendering device rendering the digital video data from the plurality of video feeds for display within a separate one of the video display units; and video display apparatus displaying the digital video data from each video feed in the video display units. The plurality of video display units are positioned in a 3-D scene so that a plurality of video display units are at least partially viewable at the same time. Moreover, at intervals, the digital video data is incremented from one video display unit to another thus allowing an observer to view each digital video data in a foreground position. Furthermore, the observer is provided with a video data selector allowing the operator to select digital video data in one video display unit and move the selected digital video data to another video display unit. | 12-18-2008 |
20090021583 | CUSTOM VIDEO COMPOSITES FOR SURVEILLANCE APPLICATIONS - A video surveillance system includes a plurality of video sources, where each video source is arranged to monitor and acquire video surveillance data within a field of view (FOV), a video manager connected to each of the plurality of video sources to control the video sources and to process video surveillance data acquired therefrom and a user interface connected to the video manager that allows an end-user to observe the FOVs from each of the plurality of video sources, and identify a region of interest (ROI) within particular FOVs to dynamically render a composite FOV comprising the ROIs from the particular FOVs. Where a video source includes enhanced abilities, such as a mega-pixel camera or video source, the enhanced video source may forward, instead of video data for the entire FOV, only that video dated from the selected ROI to realize reduced network traffic for more optimal video surveillance applications. | 01-22-2009 |
20140240455 | System and Method to Create Evidence of an Incident in Video Surveillance System - A method and apparatus. The method includes the steps of a security camera capturing a panoramic field of view of a secured area, separating portions of the panoramic field of view into a plurality of sub-views that each depict at least some time-related portion of an event detected within the secured area and simultaneously displaying the plurality of sub-views within separate respective windows of a display. | 08-28-2014 |

20090265683 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR SUPPORTING MULTIPLE DEPLOYMENT MODELS OF ENTERPRISE BUSINESS APPLICATIONS - This disclosure describes, generally, methods and systems for supporting multiple deployment models for enterprise business applications. In one embodiment, the method may include designating pillars associated with an enterprise business application. Each pillar may include application units which comprise logical groupings for application units used in the enterprise business application. The method may further include determining which of the application units are dependent to more than one of the pillars. Furthermore, based on the determination of the dependent application units, the method may generate deployment code associated with the dependent application units which is configured to be deployment model independent. The method may then receive, at deployment time, a deployment model designation indicating a type of deployment model selected to be used for the enterprise business application. Then, the enterprise business application may be deployed according to the deployment model designation. | 10-22-2009 |
20130086054 | CONCURRENT CALCULATION OF RESOURCE QUALIFICATION AND AVAILABILITY USING TEXT SEARCH - A system, for concurrent calculation of resource qualifications (e.g., skills, educational degree, etc) and availability (e.g., availability to work on a project) using text search. The method commences by initiating a flow for requesting resources, the resource request comprising a qualification requirement indication and a time period requirement indication. The method further comprises retrieving candidate resource documents in a manner so as to calculate an overall match score that is based not only on qualifications, but also on availability. The scoring uses a recoded candidate resource document that comprises qualification attributes as well as time period availability to form an overall match score. The recoding can be performed in an administrative flow (e.g., a batch process, and/or a periodically executed update process), and the administrative flow creates recoded candidate resource document that are suited for use with a text search engine capable of processing an extensible markup language document. | 04-04-2013 |
