Patent ID: 8675063

Claim:
A device comprising: an imager to acquire one or more images, associated with an integrated image signal processor; a triggering sensor to sense a triggering event; and a receiver to receive signals, from a control unit enabling user-selectable arm/disarm mode control of the imager and the triggering sensor operatively connected to the control unit, through a 2-way wireless communication link between the receiver and the control unit; wherein the device, responsive to a disarm signal received by the control unit and transmitted to the receiver through the 2-way wireless communication link, is operative to enter a disarm mode, in which the receiver is operational and the imager and the triggering sensor are operative at reduced power, relative to a full mode of operation characterizing the imager and triggering sensor when the control unit is operating responsive to an arming signal, and, in response to the disarm signal, the processor is operational but has a status having less than full operational functionality.
