Claim 6:
7. A method for redundantly storing event related video data, the method comprising:
continuously recording video data using one or more cameras;
storing the video data from the one or more cameras within an internal storage medium of each respective camera, the internal storage medium comprising a circular storage buffer with a temporary first-in-first-out storage procedure operable to store up to 168 hours of the video data;
receiving, via a video recording manager device, a triggering event indication from at least one sensor;
responsive to receiving the triggering event indication, transmitting, via the video recording manager device, a triggering event signal to the one or more cameras, the triggering event signal initiating a triggering event recording procedure within each of the one or more cameras;
receiving triggering event related video data from the one or more cameras into the video recording manager device, the triggering event related video data comprising at least a portion of the video data stored in the internal storage medium recorded prior to receiving the triggering event indication;
storing the triggering event related video data within a first storage medium of the video recording manager device along with authentication metadata associated with the triggering event indication for authenticating the triggering event related video data;
storing an additional copy of the triggering event related video data within a second storage medium of the video recording manager device along with the authentication metadata; and
