Abstract
An electronic monitoring system has one or more imaging devices that can detect at least one triggering event comprising sound and motion and a controller that executes a program to categorize the triggering event as being located in a user-defined activity zone within the field of view and/or as being a taxonomic-based triggering event. Upon categorizing the triggering event, the system generates an output comprising a video component and an audio component. At least a portion of the audio component is modified if the triggering event is a categorized triggering event. Modification of the audio may include muting all or a portion of the audio component of the output.
