Video surveillance technology is an industry that has become available to everyday end users. The wide variety of video surveillance tools may span from webcams for home surveillance to full service business video surveillance and security systems with video security cameras. As well, the video surveillance industry includes algorithms for feature detection on images and storage of video, such as on YouTube by YouTube, LLC in San Bruno, Calif. The industry includes Wi-Fi video cameras for deployment in the home, such as for example, by Dropcam, Inc. in San Francisco, Calif. By such camera, an end user may monitor a particular scene, such as a room in a house, from a handheld device or a computer. Another current product offered in the industry is a competing video surveillance archiving service by sensr.net, Inc. in Incline Village, Nev. By such service, an end user may monitor a scene from an online account and receive alerts activated by detected motion. Further, images from such camera may be stored in the cloud.
