Claim 0:
1. A system for managing workflows for observed events comprising:
a control unit;
a list of recognized events, that includes individual recognized events and recognized events in the form of a sequence of events, and wherein each recognized event has a predefined workflow and a predefined concern level;
one or more image capture apparatus that captures a sequence of images of images of a location and transmits said captured sequence of images to said control unit, wherein said control unit having response software and analysis software, wherein said analysis software monitors said captured sequence of images and uses various patterns in numerous combinations of pixels that make up said captured sequence of images to detect one or more recognized events in said sequence of images;
wherein if a recognized event has been detected in said sequence of images, said analysis software identifies a concern level and workflow from a listing of workflows and said response software determines if an individual is needed to perform said workflow, if said response software determines that an individual is needed to perform said workflow, said response software identifies one or more qualified individuals from a listing of qualified individuals to perform said workflow and then transmits to said one or more qualified individuals said concern level and workflow;
wherein if a recognized event is in the form of a sequence of events and a first event has been detected and a second event has not been detected in said sequence of events within a certain amount of time, said analysis software identifies a concern level, wherein said concern level is based on said recognized event and said certain amount of time, and identifies a workflow from a listing of workflows and said response software determines if an individual is needed to perform said workflow, if an individual is needed to perform said workflow, said response software identifies one or more qualified individuals from a listing of qualified individuals to perform said workflow and then transmits to said one or more qualified individuals said concern level and said workflow;
wherein if a recognized event is in the form of a sequence of events and a first event has been detected and a second event has been detected in said sequence of events aid said second event occurred after said first event, and in said sequence of events said second event was to occur prior to said first event, said analysis software identifies a concern level and a workflow from a listing of workflows and if an individual is needed to perform said workflow, said response software identifies one or more qualified individuals from a listing of qualified individuals to perform said workflow and then transmits to said one or more qualified individuals said concern level and said workflow;
wherein if said analysis software determines that said workflow needs to be performed by an individual, said one or more qualified individuals will begin to perform said workflow based on said concern level of one or more of said recognized events and the concern levels for other recognized events having workflows to be performed by said one or more qualified individuals;
wherein if said response software determines if an individual is needed to perform said workflow said response software directs one or more input/output devices used by said one or more qualified individuals to display at least one image of said captured sequence of images showing said recognized event and said a notification to initiate said one or more qualified individuals to perform said workflow and wherein said recognized event is highlighted on said display having at least one said captured image showing said recognized event;
wherein if said response software determines that said workflow can be performed without the need of an individual, said response software interacts with an automatic control system or a robotic system to perform said workflow; and
wherein response information for each said recognized event is stored in a databank in a memory of said control unit and wherein said response information comprises workflow performed, time or any warnings and notifications transmitted, time said workflow was performed, and if a qualified individual was needed to perform said workflow and if so, identification of said qualified individual.
