Event capture and filtering system
First Claim
1. An event capture and filtering system comprising:
- a sensor data analysis system that identifies a plurality of detected events from provided sensor data, evaluates the sensor data to determine at least one characteristic associated with each event, and reports the plurality of detected events and their associated characteristics;
at least one affiliated event generator operative to generate at least one affiliated event and produce at least one event report, a given event report including at least one characteristic associated with an affiliated event;
an event filtering system that compares the at least one event report to the plurality of detected events to identify at least one affiliated event amongst the plurality of detected events and determines at least one unaffiliated event by filtering the identified affiliated events from the plurality of detected events; and
a sensor control that allocates available sensor resources according to the associated characteristics of the determined at least one unaffiliated event.

Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for filtering detected events to determine events of interest. A sensor data analysis system identifies a plurality of detected events from provided sensor data and evaluates the sensor data to determine at least one characteristic associated with each event. The sensor data analysis system reports the plurality of detected events and their associated characteristics. At least one affiliated event generator is operative to generate at least one affiliated event and produce at least one event report. A given event report provides at least one characteristic associated with an affiliated event. An event filtering system compares the at least one event report to the detected events to identify at least one affiliated event amongst the plurality of detected events.

12. An event capture and filtering system comprising:
-
means for recording events affiliated with the system within an area of interest;
means for detecting events within the area of interest;
means for filtering the affiliated events from the detected events to determine at least one unaffiliated event; and
means for allocating sensor resources based on the at least one unaffiliated event. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)

16. A method of identifying events of interest within a defined area, comprising:
-
collecting raw sensor data representing a plurality of detected events in the defined area;
analyzing the collected data to determine at least one characteristic associated with a given detected event;
generating at least one event report representing respective events affiliated with the system, a given event report including at least one associated characteristic of an event affiliated with the system;
matching the generated at least one event report to the plurality of detected events to determine which of the detected events are affiliated with the system; and
filtering the detected events to remove the events affiliated with the system as to identify at least one event of interest. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
