While working with an edge device through an Android SDK, I noticed a key limitation in how event evidence is handled.
Current limitations in this setup
• Captures only the moment of detection
• Provides very short clips of 2 to 3 seconds
• No access to pre event context
• No visibility into post event outcome
• No option to retrieve additional footage on demand
Why this is a problem
• Lack of context leads to misjudgment
A short clip is not enough to confirm if the event is real or noise
• No pre event visibility
It is not possible to understand what led to the detection
This makes debugging and validation difficult
• No post event validation
There is no way to see what happened after the trigger
Outcomes remain unclear
