" The patent’s best example of why the invention is necessary describes a webcam of a watering hole in Africa. “There would be many periods during which nothing of particular interest (e.g., no animals, etc.) would be happening at the watering hole.” Sometimes, though, there would be something awesome, like lions, and people would want to know. That’s where the invention comes in. It would tell you the animals are there (hopefully with a helpful alert like “Oh my God! Lions!”). "
