The patent US12069405B2 describes a sophisticated video surveillance system that integrates a video management system with multiple computer-implemented digital devices. Each digital device is designed to emulate physical electronic devices, enabling the transmission of video streams and metadata over a computer network to the video management system. The system includes an input interface for receiving video streams from various sources, a processing unit for storing these streams in a video repository, and an output interface for sending processed streams back to the digital devices. Notably, the digital devices can process the received video streams, generating processed video outputs and associated metadata, which can then be communicated back to the video management system.

The claims further elaborate on the functionalities of the system, including the ability of the video management system to concurrently send and store video streams, the presence of video decoder and encoder modules within the digital devices, and the establishment of communication sessions for efficient data transfer. The system also incorporates features for timestamping video streams, allowing for precise tracking and management of video data. Additionally, it supports the processing of additional media streams and sensor data, enhancing the overall capability of the surveillance system. This innovative approach aims to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of video surveillance operations by leveraging advanced digital processing and network communication technologies.
