SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VIDEO SYNOPSES

Systems and methods are disclosed for efficient generation and presentation of synopsis videos that include video images of multiple objects captured at various times displayed at a common time. The system may include one or more network cameras that, when a moving object is detected, record a video file for that object and provide the video file to a cloud server. The cloud server may queue video files from the one or more network cameras and, when a user requests a synopsis video of a period of time, the video files captured during that period of time may be used by the cloud server to generate the synopsis video. The cloud server may also generate a plurality of object indicators that are provided with each of several chapters of the synopsis video in a scrollable arrangement that allows the user the scroll through objects and chapters.
