Claim 15:
16. A system for proactively preventing loss of articles in a venue, the system comprising:
one or more processors programed with computer program instructions that, when executed, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
detect one or more mobile devices at a venue;
store a set of data, the set of data including a location of detection at the venue of the one or more mobile devices, a unique identifier of the one or more mobile devices, a time of detection at the venue of the one or more mobile devices, an identifier of a corresponding proximity recognition device at the venue that detects the one or more mobile devices, and corresponding distance of the one or more mobile devices from the corresponding proximity recognition device that detects the one or more mobile devices;
determine an occurrence of an incident at the venue and a time and location of occurrence of the occurrence of the incident at the venue, and notify of said occurrence;
determine a first set of proximity recognition devices associated with the location of the occurrence of the incident based on the notified occurrence of the incident;
generate and store an event associated with the occurrence of the incident, the event including the time of occurrence of the incident and information regarding the first set of proximity recognition devices;
determine whether a first corresponding distance of the one or more mobile devices from the first set of proximity recognition devices at the time of the occurrence of the incident is less than a first threshold based on the set of data;
identify a first set of the one or more mobile devices corresponding to the event, wherein the first corresponding distance of the first set of the one or more mobile devices from the first set of proximity recognition devices at the time of the occurrence of the incident is less than the first threshold;
determine a second set of proximity recognition devices associated with a location of another occurrence of the incident;
generate and store another event associated with the other occurrence of the incident;
determine whether a second corresponding distance of the one or more mobile devices from the second set of proximity recognition devices at the time of the other occurrence of the incident is less than a second threshold based on the set of data;
identify a second set of the one or more mobile devices corresponding to the other event, wherein the second corresponding distance of the second set of the one or more mobile devices from the second set of proximity recognition devices at the time of the occurrence of the incident is less than the second threshold;
identify an intersection of the first set and the second set;
determine at least one mobile device in the intersection to be a suspect device;
identify a suspect associated with the suspect device, wherein identifying the suspect includes associating visits of the one or more mobile devices to the venue with a plurality of images of persons visiting the venue to determine corresponding images of the suspect at the time of the occurrence of the incident and at a location proximate to the occurrence of the incident;
determine a return of the suspect by detecting a re-visit of the suspect device; and
alert a venue operator of the return of the suspect and providing an image of the suspect to the venue operator.
