Abstract

A system for covertly activating an alarm comprising: at least one processor; at least one covert 3D sensor; and computer executable instructions readable by the at least one processor and operative to: use the at least one covert 3D sensor in conjunction with gesture recognition software to sense at least one covert gesture made by at least one person in a space; and covertly trigger an alarm based on the at least one covert gesture.

Claims

1. A system comprising:

a. at least one processor;

b. at least one covert sensor; and

c. computer executable instructions readable by the at least one processor and operative to;

i. use the at least one covert sensor to identify at least one gesture or series of gestures; and

ii. covertly trigger an alarm based on the at least one gesture or series of gestures.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the alarm is a local alarm.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the alarm is a remote alarm.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein triggering an alarm includes using a means for communicating electronically to send an alarm to a user.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein the alarm is an e-mail.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the alarm is an SMS message.

7. The system of claim 1, wherein the computer executable instructions are further operative to deactivate an alarm covertly based on the at least one gesture or series of gestures in a space.

8. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one sensor is positioned in or near a room.

9. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one sensor is at least one three-dimensional sensor.

10. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one gesture or series of gestures comprises at least one covert gesture or series of gestures.

11. A method of covertly activating a security alarm system comprising the steps of:

a. using at least one covert sensor to sense at least one gesture;

b. identifying the sensed gestures by executing computer instructions; and

c. covertly activating a security alarm system based on the identity of the perceived gesture.

12. The method of claim 11, further comprising the step of deactivating the security alarm system based on the identity of the sensed gesture.

13. The method of claim 11, wherein the at least one gesture comprises at least one covert gesture.

14. A system for covertly activating an alarm comprising:

a. at least one processor;

b. at least one covert 3D sensor; and

c. computer executable instructions readable by the at least one processor and operative to;

i. use the at least one covert 3D sensor in conjunction with gesture recognition software to sense at least one covert gesture made by at least one person in a space; and

ii. covertly trigger an alarm based on the at least one covert gesture.
