Docking Stations for IRS Cameras

Aims of the project:

To create an application to automatically synchronise the docking station to which the firefighter’s camera(s) are connected, so that the images/recordings are automatically saved.

Results of the project:

After connecting the camera(s) used by the Integrated Rescue System (IRS) team, the Docking Station application automatically performs a synchronisation, which consists of reading all the files on the camera and assessing which videos have already been backed up and which have not.

If some of the videos are not backed up, the programme automatically creates the appropriate directories according to the camera ID, the time of recording and the station where the controlling PC is located.



A copy of the video directory is secretly backed up on this PC under a password. This backup file is kept on the hard disk for a period of time defined by the Fire Service administrators. At the end of this period, the application automatically deletes the files on the disc (this is only a temporary backup).

The second copy of the files is sent together with the directories to the network servers of the Pilsen Regional Fire Brigade, where they are stored in accordance with the Fire Brigade’s operating procedures.

At the same time, the camera settings are synchronised so that all cameras work in the same way (setting the recording method, time resolution).

The programme runs continuously in the background on PCs at the fire stations in the Pilsen region.  All settings of the application and further editing of the files are allowed only after entering the login data of the administrators.
