Patent ID: 7102503

Claim:
A monitoring system comprising: a first sensor for outputting first data based on monitoring of a region monitored by the first sensor; a second sensor for outputting first data based on monitoring of a region monitored by the second sensor; a third sensor for outputting first data based on monitoring of a region monitored by the third sensor; a fourth sensor for outputting first data based on monitoring of a region monitored by the fourth sensor; a first event detector for detecting, on the basis of the first data output from the first sensor, an occurrence and an property of a first event in response to a change in state of the region being monitored; a second event detector for detecting, on the basis of the second data output from the second sensor, an occurrence and a property of a second event in response to a change in state of the monitored region; a notification controller for controlling a notification of the first event and the second event based on data indicating the property of the first event detected by the first event detector and data indicating the property of the second event detected by the second event detector; and a presentation controller for controlling presentation of data such that if the first event and/or the second event are controlled, by the notification controller, to be notified, the third data, relating to the first event, output by the third sensor and/or the fourth data, relating to the second event, output by the fourth sensor are presented.
