Abstract
A method includes receiving, from a subscriber device, a request including virtual region characteristics and an occupancy threshold, and determining, using image data captured by a camera and the virtual region characteristics, a virtual region corresponding to a portion of a physical region within a field of view of the camera. The virtual region is smaller than the physical region. The method also includes determining, using the image data, an occupancy of the virtual region and determining that the occupancy of the virtual region satisfies the occupancy threshold. In response to determining that the occupancy of the virtual region satisfies the occupancy threshold, the method also includes generating a notification to the subscriber device.
