Abstract
A surveillance system includes an infrared sensor system coupled to output an infrared signal in response to receiving infrared light, and an audio recording system coupled to output an audio signal in response to recording sound. An image sensor is system coupled to output an image signal in response to receiving image light. A controller is coupled to the infrared sensor system, the audio recording system, and the image sensor system. The controller includes logic that when executed by the controller causes the surveillance system to perform operations including receiving the infrared signal from the infrared sensor system, activating the audio recording system to record the sound, and activating the image sensor system to output the image signal.
