METHOD FOR DETECTING AND RESPONDING TO CONDITIONS WITHIN A SPACE

A method for detecting conditions within a space includes: accessing a corpus of object lists generated based on objects detected in images captured by a population of sensor blocks; compiling locations of a set of objects represented in the corpus of object lists into a map of the space based on known locations of the population of sensor blocks; accessing a nominal condition of the space defining a set of inclusion objects and a set of exclusion objects within a threshold distance of an anchor object type; and detecting the anchor object type in the map according to the nominal condition. The method further includes, in response to detecting an object within the threshold distance of the anchor object type in the map and deviating from the nominal condition: identifying the object as anomalous in the map; and generating a notification to investigate the object.
