A periphery band is around an excluded region. For automatically counting physical objects within the periphery band and the excluded region, an imaging sensor captures: a first image of the periphery band and the excluded region; and a second image of the periphery band and the excluded region. In response to the first image, a first number is counted of physical objects within the periphery band and the excluded region. Relevant motion is automatically detected within the periphery band, while ignoring motion within the excluded region. In response to the second image, a second number is counted of physical objects within the periphery band and the excluded region. In response to determining that a discrepancy exists between the detected relevant motion and the second number, the discrepancy is handled.

An apparatus comprising a camera sensor and a processor. The camera sensor may be configured to capture video data of an area of interest. The processor may be configured to (i) process the video data, (ii) generate control signals used to initiate security responses and (iii) execute computer readable instructions. The computer readable instructions are executed by the processor to (a) determine an activation state for the security responses, (b) determine a status of a visitor in the area of interest in response to an analysis of the video data, (c) select one of the control signals to initiate the security responses based on (i) the status of the visitor and (ii) the activation state and (d) determine a reaction of the visitor in response to the security responses.

A method and a target monitoring system (TMS) to generate descriptive parameters of one or more target objects in a region are provided. The TMS dynamically receives first data comprising image data and/or audio data of the target objects in the region and second data comprising circumstantial information related to the first data from one or more sensors positioned in one or more spatial directions in the region over a network. The TMS filters the dynamically received first data and identifies the target objects in the region using image data extracted from the filtered data. The TMS generates descriptive parameters associated with each identified target object in the region using the filtered first data and the circumstantial information.
