Abstract
A security camera system includes a base unit and sensor modules for generating image data. The base unit includes several mounting sockets arranged at different elevational and azimuthal directions around the base unit, and the sensor modules attach, for example, magnetically, to the mounting sockets. Each mounting socket includes a socket ID, which is read by a reader module of the sensor modules and used to stitch together the image data from different sensor modules. The sensor modules are powered wirelessly via induction and communicate wirelessly with the base unit via wireless transceivers and antennas.
