Description

CML07539
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING AND DETERMINING INTEGRITY OF
VIDEO
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to video capture and in particular to a method and apparatus for providing and determining integrity of video.
Background of the Invention
The use of cameras by public safety officers to record specifics of accident and crime scenes can facilitate accurate record keeping. The video can be used to objectively determine actual circumstances of critical events such as officer-involved shootings and to investigate allegations of police brutality or other crimes/criminal intent. A common use case entails an officer responding to a call by approaching the scene in their official vehicle having mounted cameras for video capture.
Whether or not the recorded "evidence" is used solely for investigative purposes (e.g., to internally clear an officer of wrongdoing or to focus a forensic investigation) or for actual court-admissible prosecution or defense, it is important to be able to determine with reasonably high assurance whether or not the video has been tainted. It is also important to be able to do this without incurring inordinate equipment and/or operations expenses that negate the benefits. Therefore, a need exists for a method and apparatus for providing and determining integrity of video.

It will further be appreciated that certain actions and/or steps may be described or depicted in a particular order of occurrence while those skilled in the art will understand that such specificity with respect to sequence is not actually required. Those skilled in the art will further recognize that references to specific implementation embodiments such as "circuitry" may equally be accomplished via replacement with software instruction executions either on general purpose computing apparatus (e.g., CPU) or specialized processing apparatus (e.g., DSP).

Detailed Description of the Drawings
In order to alleviate the above-mentioned need, a method and apparatus for providing and determining integrity of video is provided herein. During operation a system records video via a camera and separately records or maintains a record of stimuli experienced by the camera. The integrity of the recorded video can be insured by determining if time periods of the separately recorded or otherwise reproducible stimuli correspond to a response seen within the video.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the system may be equipped with the ability to send out challenges or "markers" to the camera(s) as background light or audio capture adjustment or zoom levels, where the CML07539 system tracks the times (and possibly to which camera(s)) it sent the markers so as to correlate against responses from the cameras in the form of video.
Alternatively, the system may simply track external stimuli applied to the cameras (e.g., bump, turn, position, or an acceleration of the camera). Such indirectly or externally applied stimuli may be in the form of separately recorded or reproducible challenges issued by the system to vehicle peripheral equipment such as remotely positionable camera mount(s) or a vehicle rooftop light-bar, or may be in the form of separately recorded system- external stimuli such as potholes, thunder/lightning, etc., or may be in the form of a combination thereof.
If properly implemented, the above system could eliminate the opportunity to feed pre-recorded video/audio into the camera(s) in a way that would resist detection.
Turning now to the drawings, where like numerals designate like components, FIG. 1 illustrates system 100 for collection and storing of data. As shown, system 100 comprises a plurality of cameras 101 (only one labeled). In one embodiment one or more of the cameras are mounted upon a guidable/remotely positionable camera mounting 105. In another embodiment, at least one environmental sensor 102 is provided to separately record external stimuli applied to each camera. Logic circuitry and storage unit 103 comprise a simple computer that serves to control camera mounts 105 and/or to control a vehicle rooftop light-bar and/or other vehicle peripheral equipment and to record data from sensor(s) 102 and from cameras 101 . Communication between elements of system 100 is accomplished via bus(es) 104 and/or wirelessly. Although not shown, there may comprise additional wiring such as between computer 103 and camera mounts 105 in order to remotely control camera mount positioning, and/or between computer 103 and cameras 101 to transmit "markers" to one or more cameras 101 . In a preferred embodiment, system 100 is mounted upon and/or partially within a police patrol automobile, but alternatively may be worn by a police officer.
As discussed, it is important to be able to determine with reasonably high assurance whether or not any video retrieved from computer 103 has been tainted at any point, i.e., not just at or subsequent to the point that the computer receives the video signal via bus 104 or wirelessly. It is also important to be able to do this without incurring inordinate equipment and/or operations expenses that negate the benefits. With this in mind, the present invention provides for the recordation of stimuli applied to cameras 101 along CML07539 with video. The integrity of the recorded video can be insured by determining if time periods of the recorded stimuli correspond to a response seen within the video. It should be noted that to verify the integrity of data is to verify the data is uncompromised or unaltered and is not counterfeit. Examples of counterfeit data are data that has been pre-recorded or data that is transmitted from cameras that are situated at a location that is illegitimately distant from the vehicle.
One factor to consider when choosing the type of stimuli to record is how hard/expensive it would be for an attacker to post-process pre-recorded video/audio so as to incorporate the expected responses in a way that is indistinguishable from live embedding during capture. One reason for randomness of markers (e.g., in time and/or amplitude) is to defy guessing in advance by an adversary who wants to avoid attempts at retrofitting of prerecorded video.
In order to ensure randomness, the system may be equipped with one or more internal sensors 102 (e.g., accelerometers) that independently track, for example, certain conditions such as hitting potholes, driving around curves, turning corners, or detecting other bumps in the road. Such jarring conditions should be evident in the output of cameras 101 . If the cameras' output and the recording of sensor data do not correlate properly, this may be grounds to suspect foul play.
In one embodiment of the present invention, sensors 102 are not included in system 100. Instead, each camera mount 105 on the vehicle is assumed to be movable and positionable under the guidance of computer 103. Mount movement could be a linear motion along a single axis or multiple axes (independently or simultaneously) and/or rotary/circular motion. Such motion could trace a combination of unidirectional, reciprocating, oscillating, irregular, and intermittent paths. Movement can be accomplished through use of electric motor(s) or electromechanical actuator(s)/electromagnetic solenoid(s)/relay(s) or pneumatic/air-powered motor(s) or a hybrid of these.
The unpredictability of these randomly/pseudo-randomly generated mount movements, where the mount move instructions template is verified against captured video, is designed to detect the presence of specious video that has been significantly altered and/or captured at a different time and/or using a different mount. Also, attempted in-line removal (or addition) of video segments should result in observable discontinuities. CML07539
A user's observation of mount movement should be insufficient to enable successful replication in a timely enough fashion at a different camera mount. To make such emulation more difficult, camera mount positioning may be at variable speeds, where such speeds may be individualized per mount and may depend in part on physical adjustments made within the securable vehicle trunk and/or within the mount itself.
There are at least three different ways to perform the necessary analysis to determine whether captured video is consistent with recorded stimuli: (1 ) Computer 103 can perform such evaluation in real-time and can be equipped with alarm signal capability added into the recording; (2) computer 103 can cache move instructions for later evaluation by computer 103; or (3) computer 103 can cache move instructions for later independent analysis.
FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing the operation of the system of FIG. 1 when using environmental sensors 102. During operation cameras 101 record video and environmental sensors 102 separately records stimuli experienced by cameras 101 (step 201 ). At step 203 the video and the stimuli are stored on computer 103. Preferably, the video is time stamped as it is being recorded. Additionally, the environmental sensors 102 preferably comprise accelerometers that record events such as a bump, turn, or acceleration experienced by the camera. Preferably the computer 103 uses a secured clock to timestamp stimuli and received video, so as not to rely on timestamps associated with non-secured clocks such as within the cameras.
FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the operation of the system of FIG. 1 when the system applies stimuli to be experienced by the camera. During operation cameras 101 record video (step 301 ). At step 303 computer 103 instructs a stimulus to be produced by a camera or other apparatus/device and records the time of the issued instructions. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the issued instructions comprise instructions for the camera mount to move in particular directions or to acquire certain positions. However, the issued instructions may comprise other instructions such as an instruction for the camera to zoom, flash, or alter its backlighting, a vehicle- peripheral light independent of the camera to flash, the vehicle's alarm or horn to sound, a noise/rumble generator within the vehicle trunk to sound, or the front or rear windshield wiper fluid to eject. Cameras may be positioned to view other cameras and the movements of their mounts. Cameras may be positioned so as to periodically ascertain the distance and orientation of those or other cameras relative to the identifiable vehicle that houses the computer CML07539
103. Counterfeiting attacks which entail video being taken by cameras illegitimately remote from that vehicle in space and/or time relative to the issued instructions can thus be successfully thwarted, whether such attacks are based on directly rerouting issued instructions to distant cameras or based on attempted replication at distant cameras of legitimately generated stimuli observable in proximity to the vehicle.
FIG. 4 is a flow chart showing the operation of the system of FIG. 1 when determining the integrity of stored video (e.g., determining the video has not been altered in any way since it was created by the camera). The logic flow begins at step 401 where a microprocessor (e.g., computer 103) receives a video taken by a camera. Computer 103 also receives data on stimuli applied to the camera (step 403). As discussed above, both the video and the stimuli data are preferably stored by computer 103. At step 405 computer 103 determines if time periods of the stimuli correspond to a response seen within the video. At step 407 computer 103 determines the integrity of the video based on whether time periods of the stimuli correspond to responses seen within the video. Finally, computer 103 outputs an indication of the integrity of the video (step 409). The output may simply be a pass/fail indication to a user, or alternatively may be a score based on how closely in time the video matches up with the stimuli data.
As discussed above, the stimuli data may comprise data that is captured external to the camera. Additionally, the camera or an external apparatus/device (e.g., camera mount) may have been instructed to produce the stimuli, or an external apparatus/device (e.g., lights) may have been instructed to produce the stimuli.
While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to a particular embodiment, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, although the above example was given with incident data, the above technique can be utilized to verify the integrity of any type of data (audio, video, . . . , etc.). Additionally, alternatively to recording stimuli experienced by the camera, the system may be able to later reproduce such stimuli: an example of this is where the system generates camera mount positioning instructions or camera zoom instructions based on a deterministic randomizer controlled by a secretly held seed value. The seed value for such pseudo-random generation may be stored securely in the vehicle. The seed value may additionally be CML07539 stored in a remote facility that is thus enabled to reproduce stimuli. Such changes may be made to the present invention without varying from the scope of the following claims:
