Method and apparatus for processing sensor data of detected objects
A system that incorporates teachings of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method for detecting, by a system including at least one processor, a presence of an object from sensor data generated by a sensor device, retrieving, by the system, from a memory device a plurality of profiles biometrically descriptive of approved objects, asserting, by the system, an alarm responsive to determining from the sensor data that the detected object is not biometrically correlated to any of the plurality of profiles, classifying, by the system, the detected object as an authorized object responsive to determining from the sensor data that the detected object is biometrically correlated to at least one of the plurality of profiles, and notifying, by the system, at least one neighboring device responsive to asserting the alarm or responsive to classifying the detected object as the authorized object. Other embodiments are disclosed.
1. A method, comprising:
detecting, by a system including a processor, a presence of an object from sensor data;
retrieving, by the system from a memory device, a plurality of biometric profiles;
classifying, by the system, the object as an authorized object responsive to determining from the sensor data that the object is correlated to a biometric profile of the plurality of biometric profiles;
responsive to determining that the object is an authorized person:
identifying, by the system and from the profile, a service associated with the person and a command for controlling the service,
enabling, by the system, the service for use by equipment of the person, and
monitoring, by the system, the command invoked by the equipment of the person;
responsive to determining that the object is an unauthorized person:
enabling, by the system, communication with the unauthorized person, and
disengaging, by the system, an alarm responsive to an input indicating recognition of the unauthorized person.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sensor data is from an imaging sensor, a depth sensor, or both.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of profiles comprises a biometric signature of a person including an audible signature of the person or a recorded gesture of the person.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of profiles comprises a biometric signature of a person including a dimension of a body part of the person.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the dimension comprises an arm length, a leg length, a shoulder width, a hip width, or a combination thereof, and further comprising identifying member parts of the object according to the sensor data.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the input comprises speech by an administrator of the system.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising asserting the alarm responsive to determining that the object is not correlated to any of the plurality of profiles.
8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising notifying a neighboring device responsive to asserting the alarm or responsive to classifying the object as an authorized object.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
determining that the object is moving in a trajectory with respect to a location of the neighboring device; and
notifying the neighboring device of the trajectory of the object.
10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising receiving a notification from the neighboring device prior to detecting the presence of the object that the object is moving in a trajectory detectable by the sensor.
11. A device, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising:
detecting a presence of an object from sensor data, wherein the sensor data is from;
retrieving from a memory device a plurality of biometric profiles, wherein the plurality of biometric profiles comprises a biometric signature of a person;
classifying the object as an authorized object responsive to determining from the sensor data that the object is correlated to a biometric profile of the plurality of biometric profiles;
responsive to determining that the object is an authorized person:
identifying, from the profile, a service associated with the person and a command for controlling the service,
enabling the service for use by equipment of the person, and
monitoring the command invoked by the equipment of the person;
responsive to determining that the object is an unauthorized person:
enabling communication with the unauthorized person, and
disengaging an alarm responsive to an input indicating recognition of the unauthorized person.
12. The device of claim 11 , wherein the biometric signature comprises an audible signature of the person, a recorded gesture of the person, or a dimension of a body part of the person.
13. The device of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise asserting the alarm responsive to determining that the object is not correlated to any of the plurality of profiles.
14. The device of claim 13 , wherein the operations further comprise notifying a neighboring device responsive to asserting the alarm or responsive to classifying the object as an authorized object.
15. The device of claim 14 , wherein the operations further comprise:
determining that the object is moving in a trajectory with respect to a location of the neighboring device; and
notifying the neighboring device of the trajectory of the object.
16. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising:
detecting a presence of an object from sensor data, wherein the sensor data is from an imaging sensor, a depth sensor, or both;
retrieving from a memory device a plurality of biometric profiles, wherein the plurality of biometric profiles comprises a biometric signature of a person;
classifying the object as an authorized object responsive to determining from the sensor data that the object is correlated to a biometric profile of the plurality of biometric profiles;
responsive to determining that the object is an authorized person:
identifying, from the profile, a service associated with the person and a command for controlling the service,
enabling the service for use by equipment of the person, and monitoring the command invoked by the equipment of the person;
responsive to determining that the object is an unauthorized person: enabling communication with the unauthorized person, and
disengaging an alarm responsive to an input indicating recognition of the unauthorized person.
17. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the biometric signature comprises an audible signature of the person, a recorded gesture of the person, or a dimension of a body part of the person.
18. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise asserting the alarm responsive to determining that the object is not correlated to any of the plurality of profiles.
19. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 18 , wherein the operations further comprise notifying a neighboring device responsive to asserting the alarm or responsive to classifying the object as an authorized object.
20. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 19 , wherein the operations further comprise:
determining that the object is moving in a trajectory with respect to a location of the neighboring device; and
