Abstract

This application discloses to methods, circuits, devices, assemblies and systems for generating a searchable real-scene database including records indicating entities and physical events occurring within the real-scene. The said system may include a camera feed interface to receive a camera feed from each of one or more cameras observing the real-scene. It may also include image processing circuitry including a static scene analysis unit to: (a) extract features of entities appearing in a camera feed, (b) recognize entity types of entities appearing in the one or more camera feeds, (c) assign an entity designator to a specific entity appearing in the camera feeds, (d) generate an entity designator record for a uniquely identifiable entity, and generate an attribute record for a uniquely identifiable entity. The system may also include a scene dynamics analysis unit to: (a) detect entity movements, (b) detect entity speech, (c) characterize entity actions based on detected entity movement and/or entity speech, and (d) generate a record indicting an action taken by an entity.
