Abstract
Remote online utilization of video data for analyzing potential alarm events from an automatic alarm network includes the following. A premise-protecting control panel communicates with a sensor, providing a message in some or all cases of sensor signals. A remote receiver receives the messages of the control panel. A camera device is combined with the sensor for acquiring video data that allows further analysis into the matter of a given sensor-detected event. The camera device is configured with stateless network communication protocols and server processing to achieve network service of video data upon request. Correspondingly, the receiver is configured with compatible stateless network communication protocols and then also browser processing wherein the receiver can transmit network requests to the camera device for network service of said video data. The foregoing achieves remote online analysis of the video data in the matter of the given sensor-detected event.
