Motion sensing in alarm systems

Alarm systems may be connected via the Internet using Autosophy data formats

Application ready for use

Abstract: Autosophy systems generate data according to the data “content”. In conventional video systems, for example, data is generated and transmitted by continuous rescanning of the images by the camera. In Autosophy video systems, in contrast, data codes are only generated when there is motion or change within the images. The moving parts of the images are then shown in very high resolution. In Autosophy sound systems, likewise, data codes are generated only when there is sound where silence would generate no codes. An alarm system could respond to excessive motion or sound by transmitting codes via the Internet to a guard station. The received data would generate very high-resolution images and high quality sound for easier identification. The same would be true for recordings of the surveillance data.

Applications: Video and sound surveillance systems could be connected via the Internet, or wireless networks, to produce much higher quality video and sound for easier target identification. Transmission security would be impenetrable to avoid tampering.

Keywords: Autosophy, Surveillance systems, Video compression, Sound compression, Universal data formats, Multimedia communication, Internet Quality of Service (QoS), encryption.
