Abstract
A video monitoring system includes a video monitoring wall that is configured to display a plurality of video streams. One or more cameras are disposed relative to the video monitoring wall. One or more directional speakers are disposed relative to the video monitoring wall such that each of the one or more directional speakers is directed toward a corresponding location on the viewing side of the video monitoring wall. A controller is configured to identify that a desired action should be taken by a particular operator, based at least in part on the one or more video streams assigned to the particular operator. The controller is configured to analyze one or more local video streams from the cameras to ascertain a current location of the particular operator and to direct an audio message to the current location of the operator using one or more of the directional speakers.
