Methods and apparatus for establishing exit/entry criteria for a secure location

摘要

In some embodiments, a method of monitoring a secure location is provided that includes (1) providing one or more sensors that monitor the secure location, each sensor generating sensor data; (2) establishing a policy region for the secure location employing world coordinates, the policy region establishing one or more alarm criterion for at least one of objects entering the policy region and objects exiting the policy region; (3) tracking an object within the secure location using the sensor data from the one or more sensors; and (4) determining if the sensor data indicates that the object has violated one or more alarm criterion of the policy region. Numerous other embodiments are provided.

1. A method of monitoring a secure location comprising:
providing one or more sensors that monitor the secure location, each sensor generating sensor data; establishing a plurality of policy regions for the secure location employing world coordinates, wherein at least two of the policy regions overlap and form an overlapping policy region, wherein each of the policy regions including the overlapping policy region respectively establishing one or more alarm criterion for at least one of objects entering the respective policy region and/or objects exiting the respective policy region; tracking an object within the secure location using the sensor data from the one or more sensors; and determining if the sensor data indicates that the object has violated one or more alarm criterion of the policy regions, wherein an alarm criterion of at least one of the policy regions causes:
an alarm to be triggered if the object enters the a least one policy region but not if the object exits the at least one policy region;an alarm to be triggered if the object exits the policy region but not if the object enters the policy region; oran alarm to be triggered if the object enters the at least one policy region from a first side of the policy region and exits the policy region from a second side of the at least one policy region.
