Claim Text:
1. A method for substantially simultaneously remote monitoring, viewing and manipulating video data by multiple users, the video data being manipulated at each one of the multiple users according to predetermined processing requirements characteristic of each one of the multiple users, the method comprising the steps of: receiving, at a server, one or more video data streams; providing, from the server and by means of applets, to multiple user subsystems, an application for viewing and manipulating at least one video data stream from the one or more video data streams; wherein the manipulating the at least one video data stream is performed at the multiple user subsystems using said application; and wherein the manipulating includes at least one of selecting a privacy region, tracking moving objects, selecting a region of interest, image correction,-or alarm triggering; and providing, substantially simultaneously, from the server, the one or more video data streams to multiple user-subsystems; the each one of the multiple user subsystems being able to view and manipulate at least one video data stream from the one or more video data streams; since the one or more video data streams are provided to multiple user-subsystems, the application for viewing and manipulating the at least one video data stream, at said at least one of multiple user-subsystems, does not provide control commands or video data identification to the server and does not control a camera; said at least one video data stream being manipulated at each one of the multiple user-subsystems according to predetermined processing requirements characteristic of each one of the multiple users; said at least one video data stream being manipulated at each one of the multiple user subsystems avoiding conflicts in information between users and avoiding reducing the flow of information.
