1. A system for detecting and tracking one or more events in an area of interest, the system comprising an image capture device comprising one or more cameras, at least one processor operatively coupled to the one or more cameras and memory operatively coupled to the at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

  • a. capture a first plurality of images at the area of interest between a first start time and a first stop time;

    b. after capturing each one of the first plurality of images, analyze each one of the first plurality of images using a first detection method to detect a presence of one or more objects;

    c. after capturing each one of the first plurality of images, analyze each one of the first plurality of images using a second detection method to detect a presence of one or more faces near the one or more objects;

    d. in response to detecting the presence of the one or more objects, analyze each one of the first plurality of images using a third detection method to recognize each one of the one or more objects;

    e. in response to detecting the presence of the one or more faces near the one or more objects, analyze each one of the first plurality of images using a fourth detection method to recognize each one of the one or more faces; and

    f. store in the memory information about each one of the one or more recognized faces and objects and a particular time when the respective one or more recognized faces and objects were captured in the image.
