Abstract: A method for configuring a virtual sensor in a real scene, the method comprising: obtaining at least one first three dimensional (3D) representation of the real scene, analyzing said at least one first 3D representation to detect a beacon in the real scene and computing from said at least one first 3D representation a position of the beacon in the real scene; generating virtual sensor configuration data for the virtual sensor on the basis at least of the position of the beacon, the virtual sensor configuration data representing a volume area having a predefined positioning with respect to the beacon, at least one virtual sensor trigger condition associated with the volume area, and at least one operation to be triggered when said at least one virtual sensor trigger condition is fulfilled.
