Abstract
Embodiment provide a surveillance camera adapted to be connected to an internet protocol network, the surveillance camera including at least one facial processor, at least one facial recognition algorithm embodied in suitable media, at least one facial recognition algorithm executable with digital format image data by at least one facial processor detecting faces, execution of at least one facial recognition algorithm producing unique facial image data, execution of at least one facial separation algorithm producing facial separation data, at least one facial processor in communication with at least one facial signature database to obtain reference data, execution of at least one facial signature algorithm comparing facial separation data and reference data to identify correlations, at least one compression algorithm producing compressed image data, and a network stack configured to transmit to the network unique facial image data for each detected face and compressed image data.
