Abstract

A dynamic alarm priority system includes plural kinds of alarm devices, an alarm signal being generated when the alarm device is triggered; a plurality of image capture devices, correspondingly coupled to the alarm devices respectively, the triggered alarm device activating the corresponding image capture device to capture an alarm image; an interface device that receives the alarm signal; an assignment device coupled to receive the alarm signals, which are assigned priorities in order of time, thereby generating an initial alarm signal sequence; and an object detection device that performs object detection on the alarm image to determine whether an associated object is detected in the alarm image. The assignment device dynamically modifies the initial alarm signal sequence according to an object detection result from the object detection device, thereby generating an updated alarm signal sequence.
