Abstract
System and method for monitoring objects of interest including persons in an indoor or outdoor scene with high accuracy, strong privacy protection, high security, low volume data transmission and storage. The system includes: an embedded sensing device with multiple sensors and microprocessor(s) with built-in artificial intelligence as an end unit with parametric outputs, a controller that aggregate parametric outputs from multiple end units with local intelligence and configurable control outputs, and an optional gateway that aggregates multiple controllers output and connect with the network, cloud and/or human interface. The embedded sensing devices can capture data of the scene through multiple sensors with different functions and technologies; detect and track the objects of interest including persons; analyze features of the objects of interest; detect event and behavior associated with the detected objects or persons of interest based on the features and/or events; and only provide these parametric outputs to controller.
