Patent 11509832 was granted and assigned to Western Digital on November, 2022 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Systems and methods for a low light surveillance system with dual video streams are described. A video camera may include an image sensor and an infrared blocking filter. Responsive to detecting low light conditions, the infrared blocking filter may be disabled and the full spectrum video data from the camera may be sent in one video stream that is processed for user display, such as rendering in gray scale, and another video stream that is used for analytics processing, such as event detection.
