In this demonstrator, the EoT device can work in one of two modes. In the \u2018normal\u2019 mode, the camera captures a snapshot at regular intervals (configurable by the user). Snapshots are stored on the SD card. In the \u2018smart\u2019 mode, the camera performs an analysis of the image, trying to detect \u2018key events\u2019 that are interesting to the user. Regions of interest can be also drawn to detect motion. Whenever one or more of the key events is detected, the image is stored in the SD card, along with text information (tags) indicating the events recognized. There is also the option to send push notifications to a smartphone. An Android App allows to retrieve the images and their associated tags, and upload them to a cloud database. The cloud database can be accessed from any standard browser. Here the user has additional functionality, presented in a Zapier\/IFTTT manner to allow further processing or distribution of the images. The images below show some sample screenshots of the Android App, a user drawing a region of interest and access to captured images from a web browser.<\/p>\n

All tests were conducted in or around the Evercam office in Dublin. This was recommended due to concerns raised by the Ethics Committee around consent as there was a risk, if used outdoors that people would be included who had not consented.<\/p>\n

The following tests has been done in order to check the capabilities of the Versatile Mobile Camera.<\/p>\n

Pairing a new device to my mobile phone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This test consists of adding the device with our Mobile Phone to have a visual interface of our device.<\/p>\n

Finally, it is necessary to connect with the EoT device<\/p>\n

Establishing the operating mode.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once our device is connected, we can establish the operating mode. On that screen we have two options to configure, the EoT configuration and the Smart Mode.<\/p>\n

EoT configuration have 4 options, if the Smart mode is disabled, we can establish the capture time in seconds and we are going to get an image those seconds and when it is enable, the device is going to be waiting to detect the emotion that we establish on Smart Mode configuration.<\/p>\n

At the bottom of the screen:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u201cSend capture time\u201d establish the time to capture an image when Smart mode is disabled<\/li>\n
  2. \u201cSet ROI\u201d establish the area where our device are going to work on.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    • \u201cSync now\u201d send all the images stored on the device to the WebApp.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      To\u00a0configure the alarms, we connect \u201cCapture mode\u201d and \u201cSmart mode\u201d on the \u201cOperating mode\u201d menu.<\/p>\n

      Sync now functionality<\/strong><\/p>\n

      When the user uses the Sync now functionality, the captured images are sent from the EoT Device to the Google Cloud Storage. For each uploaded image, a new entry is written in the Real-time Firebase Database. These images can be checked on the WebApp<\/p>\n
