Assignee: SIMPLISAFE, INC.
Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 10:
11. A sensor comprising:
a motion detector configured to detect motion events;
an image capture device;
at least one processor; and
a data storage device storing instructions that when executed by the at least one processor cause the sensor to
detect a motion event using the motion detector,
based on detecting the motion detector, activating the image capture device,
acquire a plurality of image frames using the image capture device,
apply a motion detection process to the plurality of image frames to detect motion in the scene,
apply an object detection process to at least one image frame of the plurality of image frames to detect an object in the scene,
pair the motion with the object to locate a moving object,
identify the moving object as an unrecognized object, and
based at least in part on identifying the moving object as an unrecognized object, cause the image capture device to record a video sequence of the scene;
wherein applying the motion detection process includes producing a first bounding box identifying a location of the motion in the at least one image;
wherein applying the object detection process includes producing a second bounding box identifying a location of the object in the at least one image; and
wherein pairing the motion with the object includes determining that the first bounding box and the second bounding box at least partially overlap.
