In this talk we’ll discuss how we design smart home video cameras to make neighborhoods safer. In particular, we’ll focus on three key elements of the system that are critical to the overall quality of the product. First, we’ll discuss creating a reliable and robust motion detection algorithm, which is used to detect security events and provide alerts to users. A central challenge here is creating a motion detection algorithm that’s reliable and robust under all environmental conditions: indoor or outdoor, day or night, sun or rain, etc. Next, we’ll examine another challenge related to environmental conditions: rendering video content that people can usefully view across this wide range of imaging conditions. Finally, we’ll explore the challenge of making video streaming work reliably under different network conditions. For each of these challenges, we’ll present techniques that are scalable for mass production devices.
