An electronic monitoring system has one or more imaging devices that can detect a triggering event based on motion and/or sound and that concurrently provide a push notification to a user device with a custom audio alert indicative of the one or more triggering events for quickly identifying the triggering without requiring the remote device to execute a dedicated application program. The custom audio alert portion of the push notification may provide various details of the triggering event, categorized as either a genus level triggering event and/or a species level triggering event, i.e., a subset of the genus level triggering event. The push notification can operate as a custom audio alert and a pop-up message which can be pushed to the device and broadcast or displayed via an operating system of the device.

A camera assembly may include a camera and one or more heat sinks configured to dissipate heat generated by the camera. The heat sinks being in thermal contact with a printed circuit board including the camera. A housing of the camera assembly may be configured to maintain the camera in a fixed position while the camera assembly is mounted on a medical device such as a dispensing cabinet. The camera in the fixed position may have a deterministic field of view that includes a first area in which interactions with the medical device and adjacent medical devices occurs or is expected to occur. The deterministic field of view of the camera may further exclude a second area where surveillance is unsuitable, prohibited, and/or unnecessary. Images captured by the camera may be analyzed to detect anomalous behavior such as diversion, medical error, hazardous behavior, and protocol noncompliance.

Improved systems and methods for providing a notification of an emergent condition using automation, artificial intelligence, visual recognition, and other logic to automatically suggest identifications and classifications of information in audiovisual or other multimedia data about an emergency or alarm and modify a rapid-response display and/or alarm handling workflow to expedite the dispatch of first responds to true emergencies and quickly filter and eliminate false alarms to reduce waste.

A display control apparatus (100) includes a display processing unit (102) that displays, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, an image of a surveillance camera (5) of a store on at least one display (10) installed in the store.

An apparatus is provided comprising: a determination unit configured to determine a possibility of an abnormality of a subject based on images captured by a surveillance camera with an audio output function; an instruction unit configured to instruct the surveillance camera to produce audio toward the subject in response to the determination of the possibility of an abnormality; an acquisition unit configured to acquire a reaction of the subject to the audio from the surveillance camera; and a detection unit configured to detect whether the subject has an abnormality or not based on the reaction of the subject to the audio.

An image processing apparatus includes an image obtainer that obtains captured images captured with a camera in a time series, an accumulator that accumulates movement information about a moving object in the captured images in the time series, a calculator that calculates movement information about the moving object based on the captured images in the time series obtained by the image obtainer, a comparator that compares the movement information about the moving object calculated by the calculator with the movement information about the moving object accumulated by the accumulator, a determiner that determines, based on a result of comparison of the movement information about the moving object performed by the comparator, whether the moving object being a target for the comparison performed by the comparator shows abnormal movement, and an output unit that outputs a result of determination performed by the determiner.

A method and system for emergency responses can evaluate media data. An appropriate authority device or system can analyze media data such as a picture provided by an eyewitness' device to determine whether emergency relevant objects are visible in the media data and assigns confidence values to them. Furthermore, the location of the objects and the location of the media data can be determined to verify the authenticity of the possible emergency and to respond with the appropriate emergency response.

A monitoring system and a method for operating the monitoring system in an inmate tracking system in a controlled environment is disclosed. The monitoring system receives video and audio data from devices located within the controlled environment and organizes the video and audio data within profiles that allow for searches of the video and audio to be performed. The monitoring system analyzes the video and audio data and generates the profiles to include identified objects associated with the video and audio data.

Provided is an object type identifying apparatus that is capable of correctly identifying the types of objects held in a hand of a person. This object type identifying apparatus is provided with: a memory storing instructions; a storage device storing information indicating a type of an object at a position of each object; and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions to: acquire a position of an object; determine whether an object is picked up or an object is placed, based on sensor information; when determined that an object is picked up, identify a type of the picked-up object, based on the position of the object acquired and information stored in the storage device; and when determined that an object is placed, update information stored in the storage device, using an image captured by a camera that captures arrangement of each object from a front side.

A system, method, and apparatus for implementing workflows across multiple differing systems and devices is provided herein. During operation, a workflow is automatically generated based upon a camera detecting denial of entry of an individual. The workflow can then be implemented or suggested as a newly-created workflow at other various entry points.
