Patent number: 11615620Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable mediums directed to identifying persons monitored on video frames of a video feed, determining if the number of people on a monitored video frame is above a prescribed group threshold, and if so, calculating distances between each respective person in the monitored video frame. The calculated distances between each respective person are then compared to a prescribed distance threshold and alerts are generated in response to any calculated distance not satisfying the prescribed threshold. Identification of persons in a monitored video frame may be performed by, for example, facial recognition software. Calculation of distance between persons in a monitored video frame may be performed, for example, by using bounding boxes, machine learning, or other classification techniques.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2021Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: Johnson Controls Tyco IP Holdings LLPInventor: Lipphei Adam
