Abstract: A surveillance system and method for the automatic detection of potential alarm situation via a recorded surveillance content analysis and for the management of the detected unattended object situation. The system and method are operative in capturing surveillance content, analyzing the captured content and providing in real time a set of alarm messages to a set of diverse devices. The system provides event based debriefing according to captured objects captured by one or more cameras covering different scenes. The invention is implemented in the context of unattended objects (such as luggage, vehicles or persons), parking or driving in restricted zones, controlling access of persons into restricted zones, preventing loss of objects such as luggage or persons and counting of persons.
